Tens of thousands in Portland show up for Hands Off protest and march.
A sea of people, many with signs, and beyond them a parking structure with people standing at all the openings. The signs are to numerous to describe, but each one is different and they demonstrate creativity and ingenuity.

Free Palestine.
A poem by Yahia Lababidi, 2/15/2024: Say Something If you're uncomfortable saying Genocide, say mass murder, say boneyard, say unmarked graves, say pity the children say humanity under the rubble... say Lord, forgive us the enormity of our sins At least, say not in my name I'm waiting to hear from you Please, say something.

To new Follows: I care about the genocide in Palestine. I'm not loyal to Dems who funded the bombing of Gaza. I despise Trump, and while he is corrupt, he is not the only corrupt part of our government. If you care more about Dem loyalty than Palestine, unfollow me.

Seen on NW 21st Avenue in Portland, OR. It could be true.
Full page sticker pasted to newspaper dispenser reads TRUMP is a NAZI (Swastika) in black printed on white. Next to that, in blue pen, handwritten, is FBI Spc. Agent (name) 2/18/25 2 12:45 PM PST. The text reads, in black printed on white: Trump and his associates are attempting to restart the NAZI party in america, in conjunction with a restart of the KKK (klu klux klan) as a supporting organization to the party (NAZI). Trump has attempted to fill our local & federal police departments with these types of people (white supremacists/NAZIs) to include our military. The end goal of which is to gain total control of the country through total control of our police and military, just the same as other totalitarian leaders (e.g. North Korea). Hidden assets by the U.S. put in place after 9/11 for the U.S. are in command and solving the problem. This has been a public service announcement per the federal government of the United States.

Against a dark background with the suggestion of a Palestinian flag, the words: "The bad news will not stop anytime soon, but consuming information is not resistance. Doom-scrolling is not resisting anything, and in fact it often fuels defeat." J. P. Hill, Kill the Doomer in your head.

November 20 is Transgender Day of Remembrance. Remember with love those killed for being who they are.
Two people with their backs to the camera. One is wearing a skirt with boots and socks that have the blue, pink, and white stripes representing transgender people, and that person has their hand on the back of another person who is wearing shorts and fishnet tights. They are both facing a speaker with microphone, standing next to a banner in the blue, pink, and white colors that reads "Portland Democratic Socialists stand in solidarity with transgender rights." Other people are standing nearby.

Massive bombs made in USA fall on "safe zone" in Mawasi refugee camp in Gaza. Twenty families obliterated in an instant. Your tax dollars at work. I don't have a photo of that, so here's one of a great emptiness.
A beach. One person walking on the beach by the Pacific Ocean. Sky is heavy with clouds and fog, and above the fog bank, a patch of blue.
