A practice that needs to come back in many cities. Institutional memory and ability to complete projects in-house is key to rebuilding trust, building competency, and being a responsible steward of tax revenue.

Westboro Baptist Church tried to make an Anti-Luigi Mangione poster but it just looks like Luigi is threatening billionaires and goes unironically hard af

We really speed ran from “give me liberty or give me death” to “please sir I want some more”

America: where you can sell a random “wellness” drink at CVS, claim it “may” somehow “reinforce” your immune system, and literally call it “The Flu Shot.”

You weren’t a real gamer unless you used Xfire.

Is there a carrot shortage?

Man, I wish the adderall would kick in this hard when I actually was focused on getting stuff done.

Congestion pricing pros: -Cheap to implement -Huge revenue generator -Basically solves all traffic instantly Congestion pricing cons: -People literally will not believe you when you tell them the pros

Hey mutuals! I'm considering hosting an urbanism/planning/civic involvement panel (WIP) at Furlandia this year but I've never hosted a panel before and would also prefer to not do it alone. If you have any advice or know anyone that would be a good fit to help me host, I'm open to chatting about it.

You should know that Waymo wants to come to Portland. You should know I don’t support that.

If you live in the 39th District of WA you should probably watch the roads lest you get killed by your drunk State Senator

I’ve now found a 4th Portland subreddit. I still maintain that r/simpsonsshitposting is the only subreddit worth the time.

Every time one of these PBA mouthpieces speak lately…

Portland Permitting & Development's decision to allow a Dairy Queen drive-thru to be rebuilt on Division Street is being appealed. djcoregon.com/news/2026/01...

It can’t be stated how timely the new Teen Mortgage album was. youtu.be/yy72oWl5KJU?...

look, the right wing's fever dream of the left is simply not true. no elected official no matter what their political persuasion is gong to go on TV and urge their constituents to read some hot man-on-man smut [aide whispers in my ear] wait what

mr. mamdani i sincerely apologize for the mileage this image is going to get

The Senate must reject the bill that funds ICE. Both chambers must take up impeachment, conviction and removal proceedings for POTUS and any other office engaged in the killing and oppression of our communities. Abolish ICE and prosecute from root to branch every last one of them.

“It’s just a marketing issue,” I say to myself as I almost get hit by a driver rolling a stop sign, on a neighborhood greenway with little more than faded paint on the ground, in the most asinine route across town I’m cobbling together on the fly

I am once again calling for a moratorium on the existence of Los Angeles until we can figure out what the hell is going on down there

Dead meme walking

Okay who set the cat’s “annoying” setting to max?

I just remembered that last night I had a dream they made a new time zone called “Gay Time “ that was three minutes behind UTC

First up, and already released, is Kid Kapichi’s “Fearless Nature”. I believe this used to be a solo artist, however they’re now a duo and instead of the unabashedly British punk vibes of “There Goes the Neighbourhood”, they’ve gone for a more alternative sound with punk influence.

I’ve come to love the grungy undertones of Sick Joy over the last year. They lean heavily into this on the singles released for the new album “More Forever”.

Since I’m stuck in bed recovering, let’s talk about music. The last time I was excited for multiple releases must’ve been pre-Covid, though I can’t remember what. This January alone is seeing some bangers land from some of my favorite UK based bands.

I've been working on California state policy the entire time Newsom has been governor, and I can assure you that it has not been doing "just fine" with a governor who has always been more focused on podcasting and promotion-seeking than doing his job.

“Quick” adventure to SF then back to the airport

It was absolutely wonderful hanging out with all of you, old and new, that I was able to track down. This con, having been my first back in 2015, is always time capsule and holds a lot of sentimental value. I absolutely love sharing it with my Portland friends.

Writerly critters at FC! Learn all about submitting at my panel this afternoon! All experience levels welcomed :) It's on the 3rd floor of the Marriott so you'll have to go up the scary stairs.

Wahhhhh that sushi place fucked me up

More have joined

Back to the RC cars

RC day

It’s difficult to be fun at a con when I have to shove readings about the history of transportation and race in the US
