What's your secret to being online all the time without contracting computer madness? For me it's being pure of heart

There is another path for you, and it is the band King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard and reading dense non-fiction books about how notable bridges were built

Passed by a matte black Cybertruck while walking home, then a Rivian with the license plate “GPUGURU”, then ANOTHER Cybertruck. Maybe this is hell.

What an expertly called shot

This is supremely cool, and also, jesus fucking christ you would not BELIEVE how much work this took

Another approach: Shortly after Wilson's news dropped today, Seattle announced it's suing Trump over his anti-DEI orders.

We recently designed a risograph printed on-screen ad for for @heckbrewing.com to display during the pre-show reel at Laurelhurst theater in Portland, OR and we’re overjoyed with how it turned out! Printed at the ever-fabulous Outlet pdx #risograph

Ahhhh amazing news!!

consider this my monthly moment of gratitude that portland passed charter reform and therefore the city has such representation in our municipal government that this photograph exists

Excellent new Peter Dibble video about D.B. Cooper and the many copycats surrounding his hijacking: youtube.com/watch?v=zgDL...

This conversation is so hard. And we need to have it. If our desperation to do something comes at a cost to our immigrant neighbors, we need to re-strategize. Portlanders could not do better for clear-eyed, strategic courage and conviction than Councilor Morillo in this moment.

Bring back Fareless Square!

Always loved the people who are like, "But my ancestors came here the legal way!" and by that they mean they arrived via ratship to an island, a man asked them their name, they were like, "Uh, Jeff... Smith?" another guy said "sure?" and then they became permanent residents of the United States.

And the good news just keeps coming!

If a 33 year old socialist immigrant Muslim can win the Dem mayoral nomination in a landslide in the biggest city in the entire country Fuck it man, the game is on, get this shit moving and start fighting

Oh man FEELS REALLY GOOD

It feels ever weird to make art in times like this, but as someone who remembers history creativity and artists are always things authoritarians want stamped out (unless they will work /for/ them)

A Dem lawmaker and her husband were killed by a guy for their political views and it’s already out of the news.

They ripped him apart from his pregnant wife in her last trimester. They stole from him the birth of his baby boy Dean, his graduation ceremony, his first Father's Day. They detained him illegally for 104 days. But today, Mahmoud Khalil is FINALLY FREE. 🤍✊🏼

This whole post is very good and true and thoroughly depressing

It is really really sinking in for me the degree to which LLMs are the ultimate expression of right wing anti-intellectualism. Its proponents are literally mocking the idea that anyone would ever want to learn anything, know anything, develop any actual skill, or have a thought of their own.

Portland: Does anyone know why there’s a statue on top of the elevator bank at the Montgomery Park building? Who is she??

a lot of bus stops in SF are literally just a pole you have to stand next to, but today some guerilla-installed benches suddenly appeared diy cozy architecture >>>>>

Vote, fellow Oregonians!! Local elections are important!! Most of us don't know anything about local school board candidates, but it's very easy to look up voting guides from the local papers that your values align closest to. Do it!! Get those ballots in.

Portland really showing off this evening.

Pretty bad news for anyone who built a career running events in the U.S. that appeal to an international audience I guess

well at least we have this

Trying to raise investment for our NA brewery in the middle of all of this feels absolutely fucking insane.

Much of the cardboard and paper goods strewn about our homes are sold by a single private company, with its name, Uline, stamped on the bottom. Few Americans know that a multibillion-dollar fortune made on those ubiquitous products fuels far-right candidates across the country. (Published 2022)

wait what goddammit!!

This is the stupidest I think it has ever felt to just be going to work every day

I’ve had a several dozen requests to write or be interviewed about the 5th anniversary of Covid and said no to all of them… except this one with @alexis-madrigal.bsky.social. Here’s our chat on the things we’ve memory-holed, and where we go from here. www.kqed.org/forum/201010...
