Portland General Electric Gets Approval to Chop Trees in Forest Park

They don't mention that an alternate route is available that doesn't cut directly through and kill ecosystems.

"...a project that will require cutting down 376 trees and filling two wetlands in an area that’s home to the northern red-legged frog, an at-risk species."

Email or call the OSBA and tell them to NOT exclude trans girls in sports! They are a very small group of kids that just want to be with their peers. It takes a lot of steps to defund a state school system.

I'm making waterproof stickers of this to stick up around town and keep us from going crazy.

The voicemail: "Sorry I missed your social cue. Please leave your facial expression, what it meant, and what I did weird, and I'll get back to you soon with an awkward, overcompensating interaction or an apology that you are confused about at first."

I'm going to create two accounts here. One where I limit interaction (this one) and one where I don't. An experiment. And with the hope that BlueSky develops a limited audience rather than just limited interaction. In this current account I am pruning it to block followers IDK. The other I won't.

So, which is it? Can I have an audience limited to my followers? Or is every post public? Google's AI seems to think the former, but when I read it's supposed sources they say NOTHING about this option.

If you read the language of "reply controls" it doesn't say that you're limiting your audience.

This was fun to do and I like looking at it. Art therapy doesn't have to be good. The result is you, remembering that you enjoy art.

U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders 48m • Yesterday, Medicare's $2,000 cap on out-of-pocket drug costs went into effect. That's good progress, but we still have a long way to go. We must take on PHARMA greed. Americans should not be paying, by far, the highest prices in the world for prescription drugs. We must make health care a human right.

Fuck pharma

I don't condone violence, but revolutions are rarely not bloody for a reason. When all mechanisms for change have been taken from those that are suffering, and people are literally dying because of a system, the boundaries of a civil society have already been removed. To condemn those who may resort to direct violence is to ignore the indirect violence of levers and pullies of many forced hands engineered purposely so that the fatal injection is not administered by those that willed it into being. Is there ever the one person who should be executed? Never. Even CEOs are taking orders. But if the argument is to be made that their inflated salaries are because they take on exorbitant risk then the logical endgame could be interpreted as their murders. What is murder by another name but denial of coverage? These are the thoughts I mull around in my head.

Since I can't just post an entire thought here...

What kind of content are you looking for on BlueSky from your friends? What does something akin to Facebook as an experience look like to you?

My eyebrow hair has, but it's white now! I'm starting to feel like a black and white coloring book of my former self. 😂

You have to go into the replies tab to see it like a post with replies.

This plant light didn't work great for plants but it is working for me to see my sewing and for some light therapy in general.

WTF?! Correct me I'm wrong, but Black Adam is at least currently not white! (Saw this at Dollar Tree so that might explain it.)

Might be so that one can share a reply like a Skeet.

I keep trying to reply to things and it gets put up as a post. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong cuz I'm hitting reply.

Kid is sick with a head cold. I feel like "wash your hands" should automatically mean "with soap," but apparently not. 😆 At least he doesn't lick seats anymore at the airport!

Thanks, Maxx! Super useful!

Get that sneek! 😆

Cuteness! 😍

Still working on this one. The fabric is silk that Daniel brought back from India for me many years ago. The bag is currently reversible. I'm going to add a pocket to the front and one inside it so that even if you reverse it the pocket will be there.
