Councilor Zimmerman just made a PBOT employee cry in a city hall meeting. Very normal and reasonable temperament 👍

NOW! do it NOW! No time for questions. NOW!
Waymo wants to operate in Portland.
This AV bill being pushed by the legislature, HB 4085, has 8 sponsors. None of them represent Portland.
City of Portland opposes the bill.
Tell me again why it's time for this bill?

The Portland deep state gets really mad that someone won a campaign w/ short-form video b/c the old system was designed to exclude regular people thru friction and opacity.
The latest attempts of discredit me are to disparagingly call me an “influencer” but the only reason they’re not calling my colleagues that is because most of them are not as good at using social media to communicate to their constituents 😂 If I wasn’t skilled, it wouldn’t even be a discussion

in an era when carnivore diet influencers are in charge of the american nuclear arsenal we have to admit the "annoying vegan" stereotype barely ever actually existed and the "all meat diet guy" is real, increasingly omnipresent, and way more annoying and inconvenient to actually be around

Proud of this! It’s not every day you get dozens of volunteers to canvas for a state house campaign but here we are!
Huge turnout for Tammy Carpenter's canvass kickoff! Join the campaign to send another socialist to the Statehouse: tammyfororegon.com

Visited Bethanies house open house in nw today. I have mixed feelings abt congregate shelters but this looks helpful.
Sad that I saw an older guy getting interviewed in the corner and thought “do I need to give a testimonial defending the honor of blanchet house against NA’s”. We shouldn’t have to!

We hired a new city administrator and it took him a couple weeks to find out the pre-charter government was basically Vibe Code.
The Portland Housing Bureau (PHB) is sitting on $106 million in unspent funds, far more than was previously reported. City Administrator Raymond Lee outlined the funding in a memo Friday afternoon.
Update: Portland Housing Bureau's Unspent Funds Reach $106 Million
News of the unspent money comes two months after city councilors learned the city's Rental Services Office amassed $21 million in revenue, which went unreported for months.

I’m reminded of of “blitz scaling”; in the 2010s, rideshare companies used their VC $$$ to undercharge for rides compared to taxi competitors, then jacked prices once they cornered market. Could we see similarities w/r/t to safety, especially as technical limitations arise w/ ridership increases?
As always, be sure to read all the interesting perspectives and ideas about this story in the comment section

Can someone explain to me what is so urgent about renovating an arena that was built 30 years ago. Is the Jumbotron going to fall on someone. Is the floor going to break under people’s feet. Can’t they just play the game in the normal stadium
You’ll never guess which Deputy City Administrator (with deep ties to PBA lobbyists) wants to raid $75 million of PCEF funds for Moda Center renovations.
Portland leaders look to city’s cash-rich climate fund to help keep Trail Blazers in town
A key city councilor expressed skepticism about the proposal to use clean energy fund money for Moda Center renovations, saying those dollars are supposed to reduce carbon emissions, not finance arena...

Tammy got the natl endorsement. She’s awesome. We NEED new state leadership. It’s clearly the bottleneck here in Portland.
DSA is endorsing Tammy Carpenter for Oregon State House, and we need your help to win 🌹
Dr. Carpenter is a proud member of @PortlandDSA running to fight for universal healthcare, fully-funded schools and a renters’ bill of rights ✊

Progressives’ win condition has two prerequisites:
1) convince us that reform is necessary.
2) convince us that reform is possible.
This behavior makes sense when you realize the opposition is retreating from battle 1) to battle 2).

Interesting to see which councilors are uncomfortable with city council using its charter powers to investigate unreported funds hmmmmm

Looking forward to this improvement on sw alder. I don’t always know the best way to travel east via bike, and this clears that up. I emailed the project asking for hardened bike lanes.

We’ve lost this technology
Sidenote: In this early postcard of the Hawthorne Bridge, you can see that there used to be little waiting shelters for pedestrians on either side of the lift segment. At this time, the streetcars ran in the outside lanes of the bridge, so conceivably could have picked passengers up at these points.

Marie trying to understand immigrants under siege by right-wing death squads: "Imagine a bratty child at recess."
In a government that is increasingly bent around the power of one man, my vote to keep the government open reflects the urgency for Congress to maintain its oversight role. This isn’t recess. You can’t just take your ball and go home.

For the price of Two crosstown subways, you could have…. One I-5 Bridge Replacement Project
We have a proposal for the 125th Street crosstown subway and we have an initial price tag ($7.7 billion). Now it's time for the MTA to figure out how to make it cheaper nyc.streetsblog.org/2026/02/03/d...

The next phase of New York City's Second Avenue Subway carries a huge price tag, but advocates say the train could cost less with some minor changes.

Will stencil discourse = the politics fandom
When I talk about a “politics fandom” I’m thinking of the “debate” over whether America is essentially evil or not, or whether its good comms to message it as such
