⭐️Cassandra. Portland is my home. For now at least. Photos taken climbing at Donner Pass. #BAON #RCTID #RipCity #SellTheTeamMP
Back in Portland!! I left Sydney at 10:15 pm today. Home before I left! 😂 Traveling through space and time.

VACCINES DO NOT CAUSE AUTISM, YOU FLAMING SHITBIRDS.

WE HAVE, IN FACT, NOT IGNORED YOUR NOW-DEFUNCT HYPOTHESIS. WE INVESTIGATED IT TO THE TUNE OF STUDIES WITH DATA FROM MILLIONS OF KIDS.

I only remember a handful of Tweets from over the years. But one that will stick with me forever is when someone once said:

We have enough money in this world to feed every man, woman, and child.

But we'll never have enough money on this planet to satiate the insatiable appetite of billionaires.

Every time the shocking, perplexing tactic of “giving money to people who need it” is tried, it turns out to work.

And yet people who have more money than they could ever need remain baffled.
An Oregon pilot program giving cash to homeless youths sees a staggering reduction in homelessness. The program gave participants $1,000 cash payments each month for two years, and at the end of the project's first phase, 91% of participants reported being in stable housing.

I was randomly selected for a search at the gate. Definitely had nothing to do with my blue hair, I'm sure. 🙃🙄

Got to meet all my bff's kiddos, finally. Technically met her oldest already, but she was a baby then. What a personality!! Such a good trip to Canberra overall. Sad to be leaving, but ready to be home. Such a contradiction. Hope to be back much sooner this time, Australia. Until then. ♥️

The centrists in the Senate Democratic caucus saw that the country was rallying to the party in the 2025 elections and resolved that they would do anything they could to kill that momentum.

You are a COWARD that has done nothing to actually help or fight for anyone. Get out of Congress you do nothing loser. Let someone with a backbone take your seat. The subsidies WILL expire. You probably won't even get a vote on extending them for 2027. What you are doing is worse than useless.
Democrats have been fighting for months to address America's healthcare crisis

For the millions who will lose coverage
For people with cancer who won't get the care they need
For working families who can't afford to pay $25K more a year for healthcare

We will keep fighting

If this happens, I sincerely hope every Democrat that votes for it gets primaried. What even was the point of the last 40 days?! Cowards. 💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩
Here's the full text of the deal:

Hello Sydney!! It's been far too long. It's time to finally sleep, then off to Canberra to finally meet my bff's twins that are about to turn 5. About damn time.

Nonsense delay, but just made my connection. The brief stop was nice, Honolulu. See you again in a few weeks for a little bit longer.

Why do I care what language my neighbors speak? Why does that even matter? You will parrot any hateful trash you are told to say. This hateful 💩 wouldn't know an original thought if it bit him on the nose. Really hope everyone involved all get their just desserts. Monsters. Every. Single. One.

Currently somewhere over the Pacific. This was my final view of Oregon for about three and a half weeks. I will and will not miss you, USA. 😝

Thanks for the most appropriate send-off, Portland. Rain and fog and leaving before the sun is up. I will see you again in three and a half weeks!

Why must anxiety brain get in the way of sleep? I have an early flight to make and really should be sleeping. Of course not! Must not stop going over what I might have missed as if they don't have stores at my destination. 😝🥱🥱🥱

@schumer.senate.gov is a cowardly piece of shit. They literally told you everything they are now doing. Where in the fuck have you been. Spineless asshole who is apparently also a clueless cuck. We see you. I REALLY HOPE your constituents are paying attention. Wish I could primary your ass. 🤡
SCHUMER: This is the path to a dictatorship. That's what dictatorships do.

BASH: You heard the president over & over on the campaign trail saying that he was going to do just this, that he was going to investigate his political enemies. And he won the election!

SCHUMER: He ran on many other issues

CNN has made the editorial decision to keep playing this clip on air for guests making sure they get the full context of what Kimmel said.

Good.
1. Just so we’re clear, this is the clip that got Jimmy Kimmel’s show shelved by ABC.

If I’m missing any other clips please let me know.

WHY. Can you get ANYTHING right @tinakotek.bsky.social? But I already know the answer. 🙄🤡
There’s no reason to be flying our flags half-staff here in Oregon for unelected MAGA agitator Charlie Kirk for any amount of time, let alone 4 full days, especially when he advocated for Portland to be invaded along with other sanctuary cities & hated LGBTQ @tinakotek.bsky.social @wyden.senate.gov

The president is sending the military to control American cities and if you're a reporter who's framing that illegal power grab as "pushing the boundaries of constitutionality" or "acting boldly to fight crime" or whatever, please go find another line of work where you won't get us all killed.

Can you assholes just call it what it is instead of these pathetic word games. It's not an "end-run around Congress' funding power" it's a blatantly unconstitutional shutting of the wallet the WH SHOULD NOT HAVE. Fuck every one of you complicit assholes in the media aiding this fascist horseshit.

Really didn't expect the AP to be on board with genocide. Actually acting as a mouthpiece enabling mass murder. Absolute and utter cowards. The worst timeline.

This breaks my heart and enrages me at the same time. D.C. has been one of my favorite cities to visit, and seeing it like this hurts me to my core. These fascists need to get out of the city. Stop harassing innocent residents just trying to peacefully live there. Hope they get what they deserve.

Definitely can't have people actually comfortable in any way. Definitely the 15% that comes from just trying not to suffer through the increasingly hot summers and cold winters. Those of us just trying to LIVE. Definitely shouldn't focus on the other 85%. Gotta bow down to your fascist overlords. 🤡🤡
A significant share of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions comes from heating, cooling and powering homes — about 15%, according to one estimate by the Environmental Protection Agency. So if you want to reduce your carbon footprint, the home is an effective place to start.
A climate-friendly home starts with an energy assessment. Here's how my 100-year-old house did
Our shelter accounts for one of our biggest personal climate impacts. How we heat and cool our homes, wash and dry our clothes, get our electricity and heat our water each has its own carbon footprint.
