Ah fair point. I haven’t played pool there yet

It’s probably my favorite dive bar. The food? Divine. The vibes? Spectacular

Great news from Portland Parks. They've made it easier and cheaper for mobile vendors to set up at local parks!

Food trucks & other vendors make public spaces sticky & build community.

Hope this gives momentum to @councilorgreen.bsky.social hot dog ordinance. www.portland.gov/parks/news/2...

It’s not that I think people can’t feel unfulfilled by politicians but maybe it’s in our best interest to platform good voices rather than platform none

But that may be a ways off unfortunately

My hope is that the underlying class consciousness hits West Virginia like a wrecking ball someday. Get back to their union roots and find solidarity within the state rather than finding new ways to make enemies

Yeah I’m specifically talking about Portland here and places where progressive politics can exist. It also feels a bit performative when there are swaths of unrepresented people across the country that actually are repressed by their local governments

I don’t think so. I recognize that name

As a reminder, don’t forget to vote this November to fund our parks!!

If a poly transgender furry can kick it with a city councilor at Yur’s on a Tuesday night, I’d say we’ve got some good representation. I want more socialism. To make that happen we have to support the politicians that align with us, even if we disagree on some specifics.

I fully believe in tearing down the system if possible but until that time comes, you need to be able to push the needle.

NYT is making articles about our socialist city council, trying to make us look bad. We’re getting fear mongered yet very few Portland residents know their city councilors

There’s an intellectual incuriosity in just hating electeds period. Is any elected going to be interested in a group of people that just think all politicians are bad?

Ultimately in politics it is imperative that we make our demands known. That we understand the systems that make change possible

I was at a punk show last night and as the opening band made statements about not being represented by the people we voted for, I gotta say I’m more represented locally than I’ve ever been.

Blanket statements about politicians bad don’t actually shift the needle. There are good politicians

Those socks look cuuuuuute

I’ve been listening since he came to my small hometown in Longview, WA about 15 years ago! He’s got a pretty big catalog and tons of great stuff. Highly recommend

Went to the Jeff Rosenstock show tonight. Probably my 5th or 6th time seeing him perform and it’s always a blast :3

You gotta join us for the next one. I’ve seen him several times in Portland. He’ll be back ^^

Damn you killed them into deleting their post I think

I did my part 🫡

It me!

Sooooooo cute!!

Always cautious of a cis man with a furry “wife” OC as their primary online presentation

Trimet why did you just remind me 😭

I technically live in a condo building and it’s lumped into my rent so free I guess??

Absolutely tone deaf in our current national situation Jesus Christ

Remember voting in your local elections is important even in odd year elections! This year we have a crucial vote to fund our parks!!
