Councilor Morillo's anti-AI price fixing ordinance passes!! amazing feat by Morillo and team.
So much admiration for Morillo who has quietly been doing everything in her power to protect communities from harm, while facing credible death threats and ugly bad faith attacks.

huge props to @counciloravalos.bsky.social to holding her ground and holding her colleagues to account even as Councilor Pirtle-Guiney tried to undermine her.

My partner got this incredible looking/smelling salami that is one of the first things in a long time that made me regret vegetarianism a bit. I do think vegetarian except for pork would be the funniest possible dietary restriction tho…

My dream is reasonably priced 2-3 bedroom condos/apartments in single stair buildings across the Inner Eastside (I want one too). We have basically no housing for the median Portland household in size and income!!!
Desperate for there to be a single three bedroom home in the inner Eastside that me and my fiance could reasonably afford.
We need Inner Eastside or All passed urgently. City council should not allow BPS to drag it out into a multi-year project, as they have indicated they will do.

Increased ICE activity in North Portland today has led Portland Public Schools to lock exterior doors at César Chávez School and George Middle School, along with other protective measures. Other North Portland schools are monitoring the situation closely.

"Only billionaires should pay higher taxes" discourse is downstream from a general belief that policy change need not involve tradeoffs, and that the very existence of tradeoffs is an automatic dealbreaker. My run-ins with people who hold this view are what will finally cause my psychotic break.

The responses this post is getting, combined with the animating grievances of large swathes of politics, has convinced me we need a kind of society wide PSA about how Buying Things Is Optional.

AAA video games should cost $100 on launch. this would still be extremely cheap for the amount of time and enjoyment you get out of them! But an audience of whiny babies has kept them literally at the same price for *two decades* despite both general inflation *and* sector-specific costs rising

The beds are empty because shelters are inadequate, especially when they’re only open at night and require people to stand in line for hours for a spot. We are spending so much on this stupid idea and we know the answer is real housing!
Mayors Wilson’s overnight shelters have a remarkable vacancy rate — some up to 80% empty on average night.
He says that’s a positive.
“I’ve told my team I need hundreds of empty beds every night.”
That’s because it will allow him to start enforcing the city’s public camping ban next month.
