Apropos of nothing, here, in no particular order, are some things I do in exchange for money in the vicinity of Portland, Oregon:

Replace appliances and fixtures like faucets, dishwashers, microwaves, and garbage disposals

Repair/replace windows and doors

Repair rotten stuff

Baseboards etc

Also, reasonably credible masonry repairs.

omg I'm subscribing to this so hard!
hello I am launching my very own podcast with @jordanjamboree.pittbert.gay where we (mostly casually!) chat about car culture in the decline of the American empire, auto racing, and industry news interspersed with tales of our former auto journo careers. we call it TRAN GIRLISMO

Barack Obama used a combination of federal, state, and corporate security forces to violently crush the Occupy protest movement, pioneering techniques subsequently used during the blue riot against Black people in Ferguson, on down the line to Minnesota today. His reticence now fits the pattern.

Great segment yesterday with @equalityalec.bsky.social . There's a straight line from the post-2020 fearmongering about crime to the current horrors. We are, to a large extent, reaping the "Don't Say Defund" liberal backlash against the 2020 uprisings.
Alec Karakatsanis says both Fox News and even more "liberal" outlets like The New York Times have disseminated stories that create the illusion of a crime wave, when, in fact, U.S. crime is at a 20-year low.

This mid-afternoon Alex Pretti vigil at the Portland VA was not heavily promoted. But the crowd probably stretches a quarter mile or more. Americans are galvanized and grieving.

Rupes is on one

Grace is already losing focus as we head into the 2nd Q
January 28, 2026 at 12:36 AM
The best way for Rupes to score is to steal the ball and dunk it.

When two police officers were shot in NE Portland last week, Oregon's right wing influencer sphere was convinced that this must be some radical leftist who did it. Instead, it was someone many of those folks had previously attended MAGA flag waves with. leftcoastrightwatch.org/articles/por...

Unfortunately Democrats only know how to give cops more money, technology, and staffing. They only have one button to press and they’re making a very concerned face as they press it

jfc these people I stg

this is the thinnest gruel, shit that's mostly already law, and it's their opening gambit to be further watered down

they're just straight up collaborating

"you can do whatever you want as long as you fill out the paperwork and pls don't execute white people in public"
Dems coalescing around 5 restrictions on ICE, I'm told:

DHS required to cooperate with state probes (big)
CBP stays at border
warrants for arrests
IDs, bodycams
ICE out of churches, schools

"That package unites a lot of Dems," Sen Chris Murphy tells me on the pod:

A Dem Senator’s Harsh Takedown of Trump Hits Home: “Breaking Point”
As Trump scrambles to contain the damage from the latest ICE horrors, Senator Chris Murphy offers a sharp indictment of Trump-ICE lawlessness—and explains how Dems can meet the urgency of the moment.

I honestly think the plan (to the extent there are plans) was to unleash a fucking monster like Bovino to do maximum harm, then toss him aside when he inevitably got too hot. He's expendable, he can now retire into the lucrative world of right-wing grift.

canceled the hell out of this free trial
I have signed up for a free 7 day trial of Peacock or whatever to watch the Blazers, so they better not disappoint me.
January 27, 2026 at 4:21 AM
Kudos to the Blazers for still being in this game I guess.
