Portland: Dire Transit Service Cuts Planned — Human Transit Very bad transit service cuts are coming to Portland. Just a couple of years ago, we worked with Portland’s TriMet to develop an ambitious service expansion plan called Forward Together.  Now, the age...

Portland's transit agency @trimet.org is proposing to delete all service within 1/4 mile of a major medical center!

They appear to be so broke that this, and many other dramatic cuts, are the least-bad option. My deep dive:

Fast, Affordable, Illegal | Sightline Institute Homes on wheels are a lifeline for families, but zoning codes are still trying to keep them out.

What's been giving me hope lately are all the people providing affordable housing for their neighbors, family, and friends *despite* laws that prohibit it.

In Washington #HB1443 could bring mobile dwellings out of hiding and into more backyards. #waleg

A coworker took this from her apartment. I haven't seen a crowd this size before. Maybe the first Women's March? But it was much much warmer that day. ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA!

It’s a terrible country full of wonderful people

This is WILD, Griggs is not that common of a last name?? Also a chatbot doesn’t need a last name!

Preschooler and three other students detained by ICE, school district leader says The detentions of Columbia Heights students come after weeks of heightened concern and enforcement presence near and on Twin Cities school property.

So horribly sad. The depravity of this system is heartbreaking 💔

I’m not even that tall and this is a frequent occurrence, I don’t understand why

Will 2026 be the year i get annoyed enough to finally learn what praxis is???? Stay tuned

the devs are still hibernating. have some memes 🤲

Ped PDX was a really lovely one from 2019 efiles.portlandoregon.gov/Record/13065...

If you're in the Portland area, you MUST comment on @trimet.org proposed service cuts. My thoughts are in the thread below, but what matters is your input on their survey here: trimet.org/servicecuts/

Thankful they seem to be alive but this is so horrible. Abolish ICE

Death Valley on Britbox was a real treat and much funnier than its name suggests. Many delightful Welsh accents and knitwear.

Hey Portland friends!!! Trimet just dropped this survey for 82nd Ave. If you care about safe streets and/or improved transit, please consider taking a few minutes and give your feedback! Thanks!!

$50?????!?!?!???? Good lord

Attending any events in Saudi Arabia is questionable; the comedians who performed in Riyadh were rightly criticized.

But for the director of PBOT to attend an event in the country that smuggled out one of its citizens after his reckless driving killed a local teenager is particularly galling.

🫡 thank you for your service!!

The cuteness omg

Despite everything this was one of the best Thanksgivings I have had in years. Just delicious food, hanging out with friends, and not working 🦃

If you’re interested in the ongoing effort to make this happen you should come to White Owl Social Club from 4-6PM on December 13th! Cannot emphasize the amount that we would love to get you 🫵 involved to build an Inner Eastside for All! portlandneighborswelcome.org/events/2025-...

Being in Sweden/Copenhagen this summer, it seems it’s those things plus driver behavior, low speeds, really good transit/biking options, restrictions on cars in city centers, and less parking options. Lots of people crossing big streets at the same time so that helped deter bad driver behavior

Grammar national, socialists on this council 😂

hoot hoot hooray

This is a huge problem every year and I brought it up in a PBOT community meeting last night! The leaves are more slippery than ice right now. Please sweep @pbotinfo.bsky.social
