Dozens of coordinated protests against the Trump administration are happening across Oregon Saturday, including several in the Portland area.

The #HandsOff demonstrations come in response to the Trump administration, Doge, tariffs and several other issues

New study finds grass-fed beef isnt all its cracked up to be. But factory farmed beef isn't either. Substantially less (or no) beef is the future of sustainable food. You can't clean coal your way out of fossil fuels & eating the humvee of foods isn't a climate solution. www.pnas.org/doi/full/10....
US grass-fed beef is as carbon intensive as industrial beef and ≈10-fold more intensive than common protein-dense alternatives | PNAS
The high resource intensity of industrial beef in high-income economies has prompted growing interest in alternative, potentially lower environment...

When this album came out, I listened to it 2x through on a 24-mile trail run. It's so good. Very well deserved Bey!
Beyoncé won album of the year at the Grammys on Sunday for “Cowboy Carter,” her fifth time being nominated in the category. The win was so welcome that even her competitors appeared relieved when her name was announced, our music critic writes.
Beyoncé, Grammy Underdog No More
After nearly 20 years and 99 nominations, the star’s album of the year win for “Cowboy Carter” ends a confounding chapter in the awards’ history.

Now it looks like freezing funding (for pretty much everything) may have been a distraction to divert the public's attention from a horrific deportation order.

Now everyone is relieved our lives aren't being upended as much yet, while a truly awful situation goes less noticed.
