Where I live, it should be “you need gloves and three layers” weather. It’s sweater weather instead.

Have your cameras ready. Do not let these atrocities go unrecorded. Someday these masked thugs will be held to account.

Doomers don't realize how much of their power they give Trump and MAGA.

So, does this mean you’ll support articles of impeachment?

The bartender at our local brewery said her monthly premium is going from $450 to $1250. Per month. This is more than the increase those of us with employer insurance see when we grumble about premium increases and I need such folks to understand. It is literally unaffordable.

Amazon is making money off AI copies of books - and putting the onus on authors to prove they’ve been plagiarised. Honestly, just stop buying books from Amazon. Get them from an actual bookshop or order them from a reputable book supplier like bookshop.org www.rollingstone.com/culture/cult...

BREAKING: Democrats have *flipped* a seat in Georgia's state House tonight. Democrat Eric Gisler has won the seat, which was previously held by a Republican who resigned this fall. This is a red territory: Trump won the district by 13% in 2024.

Woohoo!! Sundays are for postcard writing to register voters! In person social event in Portland today!! Thank you @indivisibleoregon.bsky.social and @fieldteam6.org @sisterdistrictpdx.bsky.social @swingleft.bsky.social www.mobilize.us/swingleft/ev...

The most realistic scene in DS9 is when Gul Dukat whined about how the Bajorans never erected a statue in his honor. A prophetic text.

Extreme heat doesn’t just feel exhausting — it ages your body. A new study shows repeated heatwaves can age you as much as smoking or drinking. Climate change is literally speeding up our biological clock. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Remember that Oregon Republicans are responsible for this, they are playing politics with us to try to win the governorship.

A picture is worth a 1000 words. The birth dose of hepatitis B vaccines in the USA eliminated perinatally acquired hepatitis B infection from over 20,000 cases a year before the vaccine was introduced to <20 cases a year. The gaslighting by the current members ACIP is obscene, unethical and cruel.

RFK Jr’s handpicked CDC panel rolls back keeping your children alive

rfk jr wants to kill your kids, it’s really that simple.

Turns out the speaker *can* swear in newly elected members quickly!

There was a 13 point swing last night in TN-07. If we see a 13 point swing in South Carolina in Nov 2026 Lindsey Graham will be retired and I will be the first ever pediatrician Senator.

These two vehicles simply are not the same problem #ebike #cargobike #bikedc

Taking the car to go get groceries today simply because I know there will be multiple instances where bike infrastructure is not clear of mounded snow where it meets the clean and clear streets for cars. A city gets the traffic they design and maintain for.

"We need regulation of e-bikes!!!" people scream as SUVs and trucks get larger and deadlier and people speed and drive distracted with impunity. I'm happy to talk about e-bike regulation as long as folks agree that the *most urgent* problem is cars.

The difference between e-bikes and e-motos in multiples of kitchen appliances: 1 Kitchenaid stand mixer: 500W e-bike: 0.5-1.5 stand mixers offroad/dirtbike e-moto: ~25 stand mixers highway e-moto: ~150 stand mixers basic family car: ~250 stand mixers

yeah if these are the kinds of political swings we're getting in Trump country the Republicans are beyond screwed for the midterms

I love that Aftyn got the Ro Laren drop, cc @benjaminahr.mobi @greatesttrek.com

This is evil.

What kind of e-bike? Class 1? Class 2? Class 3? All of them? Do you mean e-motos? I am happy to have conversations about e-bike regulations, but I'm begging people to understand the variety of micro-mobility devices being called "e-bikes."

It’s #GivingTuesday. I have been awed by your generosity to Al Otro Lado. We are fighting together to protect and support migrants on both sides of our southern border. We’ve raised almost half a million dollars. We need more. If you haven’t joined us, please do: alotrolado.org/letsdosomething

Come on, even Costco is doing more for this country that the US Congress.

Thank god that, in a world where all institutions seem to cowed, at least Costco is still one of good ones.

Damnit why did I not get this book during the Island Press sale

She was first in her family to go to college. She’d been in the U.S. since she was seven. They grabbed at the airport on her way to surprise her family for thanksgiving. They put her in shackles. Her ankles, her arms, and her waist. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/30/u...

We're going to read more and more about regulating dangerous "e-bikes," which are actually electric motorcycles. Why not tell your concerns to the 40,000+ US families each year mourning their dead loved ones, whose lives were taken by the terribly lethal cars and trucks we've decided are essential.

tfw you're a parent and a 4-day weekend actually means 4 days without childcare. 🙃

A Mexican national, Martin had lived in Beaverton for more than 30 years, where he ran a business and raised three children. Agents with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested him on Nov. 18. Just a few days after the arrest, he called his family to confirm he had been deported to Mexico.

The president and the speaker are scrambling to promote a candidate in a gerrymandered Tennessee district Trump won by 22 points last year. That’s the smell of panic in the air.

This seems like an admission that there have been EOs that Trump was not involved in.

Have you ever seen a bike lane sweeper - pulled behind a bike? Volunteers in Kirkland have a new tool that attaches to the back of an e-bike. It's good for protected bike lanes, sidewalks, and narrow trails. My @kuow.org story: www.kuow.org/stories/clea...

Killing is bad, and to that end I'd like to call attention to the dozens killed in small boats in the southern Caribbean by the Trump Administration and the estimated 600,000 who've died of preventable disease and starvation thanks to the administration's destruction of USAID.

They’re going to take anyone they can get their hands on. They’re evil, folks!

This administration is sickening.

Can one of you make “now we’re cooking with magnets!” become a thing?

When a pedestrian is not paying attention and walks into something, no one dies. When a driver is not paying attention and drives into something people are often injured/killed. How long will it fucking take for society to STOP EQUATING THE TWO?

I don’t celebrate Christmas, but this almost makes me want to start.

Yes and… spend more time with your family and friends, don’t sneak scrolls on your phone. Many many many websites are powered by Amazon Web Services, and part of how they are paid is by how much demand they get.

I need everybody to read this and understand what’s going on. These are spouses of US citizens in the country legally. They have entry clearance and green cards, they’ve passed background checks and have no criminal records. ICE is taking them anyway. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2025/11/26/u...

Jair Bolsonaro ordered to start 27-year prison term for plotting Brazil coup

Kids don't always want to be on screens, they just need spaces and places to live, grow and play independently.

Horrifying and heartbreaking.

A reminder that cars aren’t a technology problem. They’re a geometry problem.

Kavanaugh stop. Smashed the kid’s car windows and arrested him. He told them he was a U.S. citizen. The officer replied “I don’t care.” www.oregonlive.com/portland/202...
