I'm always happy to watch the latest month's compilation of trail cam clips from the outskirts of #Eugene. Bears, owls, sometimes mountain lions. Last month there was a raccoon who rolled all the slime off a banana slug and then stripped it down and ate the innards. www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJ9Q...

This is a fantastic list of all the #mutualaid food resources and ways to help for #eugene and #lanecounty. #snap. So proud of how we're looking out for each other.

@breachcollectiv.bsky.social FYI your website address on your linktree is missing the g at the end and so doesn't work.

Yep and make the doors floor to ceiling like in Europe with vacant/occupied indicators.

Delta Ponds! Such a great place. If only it wasn't between two very busy roads.

@wyden.senate.gov What has to happen before you and other congress members lead people into the streets to protect our democracy?

The source looks legit: nonprofit liberal magazine. And, yes, the situation is super sketchy. Hopefully, the Corvallis Clinic remains under local control.

Yikes. I do have a good indoor air filter, as well, but yes the vent for the dryer uses water to catch the lint. Good call.

Just ordered: compact portable washer (hooks to the faucet) and dryer (indoor vent filter). Excited to do laundry as it fills the machine, instead of finding two hours for the laundromat/folding/hanging to dry when I have nothing clean left. Also looking forward to shrinking my wardrobe accordingly.

Sorry to hear that. I had a conversation yesterday with friends about what a nightmare it is to date now. I think I'm not alone in having decided it invites chaos I don't need. Those in our 40s are either Working On Our Shit or Not. And it seems the dating pool is full of Nots.

I thought Bautista played the not-measuring-up Harkonnen really well. The point was he *wasn't* as much of a villain as his family wanted.

There's a nonprofit dedicated to Standard Time @savestandard.bsky.social, which has a neurologist and a biologist on the board, that disagrees.

Yes! Or tiny house subdivisions with a range of sizes, like 200 to 900 sq. ft. on smaller lots, so you still get green space but more houses for the total amount of land.

Totally went down the Oregon housing rabbit hole today. Buying something > creating a co-op to buy something > finding land for a tiny house > plywood slab on grade technique (dubious) > passive tiny house plans > custom tiny houses > RV living > yurts. Welp, I'll continue to rent, I guess.

Oregon bill to end daylight saving time fails to clear state Senate A deadlocked vote in the chamber means Oregon will not be changing its time standard without its neighbors following suit.

Oregon was going to do permanent standard time but didn't because of Vancouver workers, basically.

Of course, that was the appropriate tribute. He must have had boxes of them, or a warehouse full of button-covered vests.

Agreed, The Chronicle is great. I'm not aware of any Grovers or Creswellites. I search every few days for more Oregonians and there are always more. 99% of those I follow are Oregonians, so that's a good place to look.

The Oregon Desert - Wikipedia

I'm reading a signed library copy of The Oregon Desert and there is a story about a smart old wild steer who taught the domesticated free-range cattle how to hide, and also broke up herds. Now I want the Pixar movie. He evaded capture for 14 years, despite being shot several times. Then he lost.

Insomnia Coach Access a guided weekly training plan, an interactive sleep diary, and other tools to help track and improve sleep.

I used the Insomnia Coach app from the Dept of Veterans Affairs last fall after reading about it in the NY Times. The 5 weeks or so I did the program were hellish, because of sleep deprivation, but I've stuck to the habits it teaches and sleep well through the night 98% of the time now. It's free.

Shafiqah Hudson, Who Fought Trolls on Social Media, Dies at 46 When the hashtag #EndFathersDay began trending on Twitter, she realized it was more than just an absurd joke. It was a coordinated disinformation effort.

We lost an Oregonian who dedicated her time, unpaid, to making the interwebs less horrible. Fiqah Hudson @sassycrass.bsky.social was 46. www.nytimes.com/2024/03/05/u...
