As a native Oregonian, couldn’t agree more! Wouldn’t want to live anywhere else in the US.

You’re really making me homesick. 😩
Yep—feels familiar!
Who are the 5% with a neutral/no opinion stance?
Yeah—I also saw that today and had the same feeling.
Boundaries may be a better way to frame this. You can hold a boundary without holding a grudge.
Yes! I was thinking that I’d be okay walking the north hill with a windbreaker yesterday. That windchill had other ideas.
For my family growing up, it meant no red meat on Fridays. Lots of tuna casserole which, despite my vegetarianism, still sounds kind of delicious. 😋
I know you've heard that a federal judge ordered the release of 5 year old Liam Conejo Arias and his father, and that they're now home.
But did you look at the judge's order?
It's less than 2.5 pages and well worth a minute. "Jesus wept."

Never underestimate a knitter! Case-in-point: @bluegal.bsky.social from the Professional Left podcast.
The syntax says it all.
I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Aww! She looks a lot like my Cosmo! I hope she finds owners that will help her live her best life!
Yes, so hard to believe. I appreciate you raising awareness—sepsis is too preventable to be so common.
What a tragedy. 😞 I am so sorry for you, for Liam, and his friend’s family. Take good care of yourselves today. ❤️
Yes—so gorgeous!
Big families, maybe?
Fuck cancer indeed. My heart goes out to you and your family as you grieve this loss. Take good care of yourselves and each other. ❤️
And to be clear…the deaths of Ashli Babbitt and Renee Good are apples and oranges, but all the more reason to ask why violent protesters breaking the law with impunity get sympathy while Good does not.
Your response is spot on here. I think it’s also worth pointing out that many in the MAGA cult were quick to paint Ashli Babbitt as a martyr after she stormed the capital and tried to break through a window into a restricted area. That people don’t recognize the double-standard here is telling.
Those ears! 😍
Who is actually complaining about the lack of ads for healthcare options??? This person Scalise describes is mythical.
At the very least, don’t pay for a premium subscription, right?
6% points = slightly? 🧐
How did it go?
Yes—definitely relatable! The past couple of years, I’ve definitely noticed the holiday fluctuations. Thankfully, my general practitioner was very low-key when I mentioned it. Like, “eh—we’re always shifting 5-10 pounds one direction or another.” I’m appreciative of efforts to normalize that.

Haven’t done one of these in a while!
While this is small potatoes in the grand scheme of our authoritarian takeover, it undermines consumer confidence in EV’s when manufacturers shirk their responsibilities in this way. We’re moving in reverse here on an important part of the solution to the climate crisis.
@blumenthal.senate.gov sent an open letter to GM about this in early 2024. I’d love to see more attention paid to this gross violation of consumer protection. Tagging my senators @wyden.senate.gov and @jeff-merkley.bsky.social.
