Oregon politicos who are also Blazers fans haven’t felt happiness in years. The group chats are popping.

LETS GO BLAZERS AHHHHHHHH

May Victor Orbán simply be the first in a string of countries engaging in overdue housecleaning by kicking their authoritarian leaders to the curb.

The US desperately needs a mechanism for triggering special elections.

Impeachment and the 25th don’t really hit like they do on paper.

Hi we heard you have chocolate. #happyeaster

Threads showing off the algorithm a little too strong this morning.

This is the truest truth of all the truths (and there aren't many).

The more we transition able-bodied folks to a culture of walking/biking the more we can focus car infrastructure exclusively on ADA, emergency vehicles, and freight.

Trump signs order seeking to curb vote-by-mail in bid to control state election laws • Oregon Capital Chronicle President Donald Trump signed a sweeping executive order on Tuesday that attempts to restrict mail-in voting, a White House priority certain to face significant legal challenges. The order directs the...

I watched tons of TV as a kid and turned out okay. Letting my toddler do the same is objectively fine.

*phone dings with my weekly screen time stats*

*shoots the television*

Huh. Weird.

lol Oregon made the Onion

Metzger Park, you had me at LEGO.

🙃

Almost like they didn’t want to be on record regarding one of their most losing issues…

-oh no hang on - they’re saying we’re just dumb. Okay all is well I guess.

My Oscar take is that Sinners was the most fun blockbuster going-to-the-theater experience I had all year and I showed it to other people twice.

Hamnet made me ugly cry.

Those movies win all the awards. No other movies get awards. So it is written.

Oregon Labor Candidate School spent time with OEA and Sen. Deb Patterson today 🥳 We also had tacos. My heart will remember the tacos. 🌮 ♥️ I love you tacos.

I remember talking to PCEF staff about this when we were trying to pass the state rebate - and talking about the potential for the discounts to stack, which would have been exciting.

Sad we haven’t been successful at the state level yet. Great job to PCEF team though.

Preach.

Heat fouling just to get the ball back despite being up 24 feels lame but also who cares. 82!

Holy Bam Adebayo. They’re even throwing the triple team. Leave him in, Spoelstra!

Nominal gas tax increase to pay for safe streets and transit: 😡😡😡

A war with Iran jacking up prices at the pump significantly more: 🇺🇸🥳🥇

But sad puppy navel gazing aside, when are we going to take legislative pay seriously? Ever? You want working class people in positions of power, but add it to your FT jobs, screw your family, and forget any sense of balance. Oh, and now campaign (and fundraise), too. And show up, everywhere.

Also leaving this sitting in my living room didn’t help the FOMO.

All these smart, compassionate, and hardworking people changing the world without me - the audacity of these jerks.

Watching this legislative session from the sidelines has me itching to get back to work.

But as someone reminded me - boredom is a luxury because my partner and kids’ health is on the up and up. I don’t take it for granted after the year we’ve had.

Shoutout @ripcityremix.bsky.social for the young lad’s first basketball game 🏀

Also worth noting Drazan’s testimony in committee continued the brazen claim that Project 2025 is just policy guidance from a random nonprofit and not to be worried about.

These people will let Trump walk all over Oregon if they win. But we’re all definitely overreacting 🤔

According to Drazan’s testimony - this bill does nothing and protecting children wasn’t worth the legislature’s time.

According to Hayden’s testimony immediately after - the bill does too much and he’s scared of the power it gives BOLI.

🤦 smh.

HB 4013, protecting Oregon’s child labor laws from Federal rollbacks, PASSES THE LEGISLATURE ✅

Onto the Governor for signature ✍️
