therapy is no longer enough. I need a Gia Gunn vs Rachel Leviss soundbath.

OK Omens, Ava Genes and Sad Valley are some of my worst local dining experiences

Now out in downtown Tacoma where striking local journalists have gathered despite it being a cold day with gathering storm clouds to march, chanting "AI SLOP HAS GOT TO STOP," "FAIR WAGES, REAL WAGES," and "WE WRITE EVERY PAGE, PAY US A LIVING WAGE." There are also going to be some speakers shortly.

is anyone remotely curious what Chris Brown's doctoral thesis could possibly be

me: wants to break the cycle also me: still forgets allergy meds

You already know that the Criterion Mobile Closet is pulling up to PAM, but what else is happening during PAM CUT's Cinema Unbound Awards? I broke down @portlandartmuseum.bsky.social's programming for @portlandmercury.com: www.portlandmercury.com/movies-and-t...

Hey remember that time: www.wweek.com/culture/2024...

Anecdotes aren't evidence, but St Johns is PISSED about the proposed fire engine cuts. never heard this many conversations about city budget in casual passing anywhere else in town.

I got to interview Vanderpump Rules alum Billie Lee ahead of her Memorial Day comedy show and was blown away by her candor, perspective, and willingness to educate others: www.wweek.com/performance/...

you: Help, Meta is red-pilling me! me: Help, Meta is showing me every Linda Perry interview ever recorded

It’s extremely funny for a guy who starred in a show where Greece looks like your friend’s backyard to say this

I woke up from a dead sleep bc I remembered this post and I left a really good expensive-ish one burning. posting saves lives!

KEEKS 🫶 The perfect Portland headliner for our Music Issue Launch Party

unfortunately I need Bill Oram and Angelita Morillo to get into a TikTok duel. Stitches incoming indeed.

Admire @andrewjank.bsky.social breaking down a very dense series of installations and programming. Oregon Contemporary’s Artists’ Biennial is underway and happening at a number of Portland locations through July 4!

I attended the Oregon Contemporary Artists' Biennial and talked to TK Smith about why everything comes back to York:

also, duh: thank you to Portland's drag scene for taking part in this! none of this would have been possible without you.

Also here's your chance to get a LaRobyn off the couch and back in the game! Hire me or tell me where to send you my ideas, if you have that power, or tell someone who can if you don't. I am bankable, Tyra!

Also the amount of angry emails I fielded after @chancesp.bsky.social "failed" to include 45 year old movies on the list of Top 25 of the Past 25 Years should be noted if only for posterity

Whoa! Bittersweet news that I got nominated for an AAN award in LGBTQ+ Coverage for the Portland's Finest Drag Artists issue of @wweek.com. I loved that issue and hope they bring it back: aan.org/aan/announci...

Go Portland, Go! 🥳

how good should I feel that AI has no idea what queer people look or sound like

remembering that time Cardi B said the dress code was drama school so apparently I dressed like one of the chaperone dads/security guards

St. Johns offers elite puttering grounds, and @wweek.com sent me puttering around with one of the neighborhood's top chefs. Thanks for letting me schlep to Slims in the middle of the day @christenmccurdy.bsky.social!

welllllllllllll fuck.

I used to always work during the St Johns Bizarre, so this is the first year I've been fully free to roam! So nice to see the downtown sector this vibrant and activated. St Johns in the sun is an elite experience.

Marc Jacobs' commitment to always being in a vape cloud

talked to two queer public entertainers today, between those conversations and being really on the beat today (and some Portland-style vitamin D) the crushing depression actually left my body for plural hours

(wearing Ross and Nordstrom Rack): ok time to judge the Met Gala

When she put that clip of Courtney Love twonked out after court in one of his outfits in his doc... Sofia Coppola had Marc Jacobs' back like a real sister.

just one more week of Mother's Day ads

one thing i am learning from being on youtube is that people are seemingly distracted by everything? i have been told that my hats are distracting, that my pauses are distracting, that open curtains are distracting, that closed curtains are distracting. an unconscious touch of the face? distracting.

oh to be the patient care coordinator at Andy Cohen's mid-scandal eye surgery is it lasik, is it an oculoplasty, are we getting the pupils reigned in, are we getting cataracts removed, what is happeningggggg

why did cable news genuinely reject my application with "I'm sorry but you're too damn ugly"

I actually did have "Tony Starlight gets cancelled" on my 2026 bingo card

Tenderoni, DeJa Skye, and Lushious Massacr will headline this summer's Portland Pride Festival. Run and tell the bricks! More from me and @portlandmercury.com: www.portlandmercury.com/culture/whos...

At Mayor Wilson's State of the City address Friday, he again relied on anecdote -- not data -- to prove his response to homelessness is working. @lmonghughes.bsky.social digs into the numbers today:

the gays keep discovering louder songs

Sorry to be overly sincere for a second, but here's why we decided to persevere through all of the bullshit and take over InfoWars. There's just gotta be a line somewhere. Thank you @pablo.show for letting me talk so openly about this.

Alexa how do I ask why we're talking about musicians' Coachella fashions before their music without sounding 85

Backrooms (2026) but in the Villa Rosa storage basement with Lisa Vanderpump's fursona suit

I couldn't help but think of @donovanscribes.bsky.social's "Portland Nice" column when I saw Nice People at Imago Theatre for @portlandmercury.com: www.portlandmercury.com/theater/port...

Running the insider poll issues was my favorite part of working at @wweek.com. Artists saying nice things about their peers for no financial gain? Amazing. To keep the Best New Bands love train rumbling, I love the intro @christenmccurdy.bsky.social wrote: www.wweek.com/music/2026/0...

Ryan you need that impact resistant material! the blue light blocker!! are you really single vision in space???

moving to Hollywood to teach actors how to wear and look through glasses. they're not just for making Jonathan Bailey look sluttaceous

the algorithms are finally showing me everyone's April Fool's Day jokes

NEW: For the first time in 30 years, there will be no Seattle Queer Film Festival. This was confirmed by Lindy Boustedt, board president of Three Dollar Bill Cinema, who said they fell into debt and only just got out of it. There's no set return date 📽️ My story: www.seattletimes.com/entertainmen...

the number of times I get confused for straight in Portland is absolutely criminal
