"The things that will DESTROY US are:

POLITICS WITHOUT PRINCIPLES;

PLEASURE WITHOUT CONSCIENCE;

WEALTH WITHOUT WORK;

knowledge without character;

BUSINESS WITHOUT MORALITY;

SCIENCE WITHOUT HUMANITY;

and worship without sacrifice."

~ Mahatma Gandhi

I got back to work tommorow. So it's time to post this:

Trail Blazers player treats homeless man to Christmas Eve meal in random act of kindness Blake Wesley noticed a man wearing a Blazers cap and invited him to share a meal, continuing a tradition of community service instilled by his parents.

I'm a longtime Portland resident of 30 years, but I grew up in the same city and went to the same high school as Blake, so I was already in his camo but this cements it. What a good soul he has. People that look out for the less fortunate among us are the best people. Bless this man. #RipCity

You know it's the holiday season in Portland when the nose is lit on the White Stag sign.

Blue colored Stellers Jay with a dark blue head sitting on the left side of a stone birdbath in a backyard surrounded by trees.

I didn’t know this species, thank you for sharing. We had one in our bird bath here on the west side a few weeks ago.

So exhausting..

War-ravaged Portland

Once again, this poem by Joseph Fasano comes to mind (poets.org/poem/student...)

“But what are you trying / to be free of? / The living? The miraculous / task of it? / Love is for the ones who love the work.”

Motherfucking wind farms…

With no trim they look better with under layer shirts and shooting sleeves. I just hope our alt jerseys are more creative than recent years.

Rip Cittttaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyy!

My favorite Dame moment didn't happen on the court, but when Dame joined the people of Portland in the streets to protest the great injustices in this country.He didn't have to do that. He transcended being my favorite basketball player. He became one of my favorite humans. #DamianLillard #RipCity

The bees from My Girl have endorsed Cuomo

Pietra Tordin scores her third career goal off of a beautiful pass from Sam Coffey!

I actually do pretty strongly object to some federal land use. 56% of BLM land and 40% of Forest Service land is used for grazing cattle and other livestock.

This is the worst of both worlds: ecologically devastating *and* very low economic productivity.

This has got to be illegal, right?

I think today is more important than any of us realizes. Please be safe 💙
