Tonight's meeting/protest in Newport over the potential ICE facility and the status of the Coast Guard chopper normally stationed here drew a massive turnout, filling City Hall and the Rec Center's two conference rooms to capacity

uncanny to be wandering around and to stumble across em making a news report and to already know it's going to be about the potential ICE facility coming to Newport like I really got the sense that the horrible momentum of the times was manifesting itself right over there

If you go out looking for birds, you'll find river otters. If you go out looking for river otters, you'll find nothing.

I gave up on this working around this site's 100mb limit so I'm going to dump my garbage on youtube more often

the people who designed portland's reservoirs dared to ask, "why shouldn't we build little castles in america?" and I think we should give them a lot of credit for that

not enough autumn colors on the coast so I went to portland for a walk around mt tabor and hawthorne on friday. I'd only ever made short stints out there until now so this was kinda overdue 🎃

out on the dunes this morning. watched a reclining driftwood effigy gazing at passersby before its inevitable abandonment, the flickering lighthouse in the distance its only consolation, but even that will be snuffed out by daybreak. poor fella.

Wuthering Heights movies are generally a bad idea but if it had to be done I'd love to see a Daniel Day-Lewis Heathcliff kinda hamming it up like he did Daniel Plainview to take some of the edge off and to make the sinister mustache-twirling brutality of the character a bit more palatable

hummingbirds at the griffith observatory yesterday morning. my only leisurely stop on the 15 hour drive back to oregon... I was just going to take a quick walk around but it turned into 40 mins of birdwatching

Good turnout at the No Kings protest in Newport, Oregon

Andor makes the sequel trilogy worse because ya got the heroic/hopeful resistance and sacrifice yes but then the reward for that is an immediate return to corrupt/feckless democracy and 40 more years of war. Realistic maybe but suspicious message from the megacorp sci-fi fantasy marketed to children

PSA: Cairns can catch these hands. Stay home and play with blocks if you're a dumb baby who needs to stack things.
