But when you realize those “birds” are actually highly sophisticated government drones, it becomes clear that each “death” costs the government millions in damaged tech and sunk R&D costs. Suddenly the requirements begin to make sense.
Call it CIA-safe glazing.

Friends: I am thrilled to share that I am running for Portland City Council in District 3! After a lifetime of questioning authority - and leading policy, and managing teams in public service for over a decade - the time feels right to ask Portlanders to trust me with a very important job 🧵

I know it's not a great time for everyone to donate, but I wanted to make a request... if you can spare $12 to send a kid to a Blazers game - or more - that would be amazing! Blazer's Edge (but let's be honest, it's Dave) sends kids to a game every year: www.blazersedge.com/trail-blazer...

There’s something incredibly gross about draining PCEF - a voter-backed initiative to equitably fund clean energy and climate resilience for our most impacted communities - to subsidize a billionaire’s unnecessary renovation of one of the most sustainable arenas in the world.

These grain silos were parte of the site of my terminal architecture school studio project in 2010. They were the backdrop for an outdoor amphitheater.

Chloe Farris, 24, record store clerk $1,700 for a one-bedroom in Buckman “I won’t live in anything built after 1960,” Farris says. “I think they’re butt-ugly. I hate the vinyl floors. I hate the white walls. I hate the LED light bulbs. I hate the people who live in them. I’ll take the mold over the ugly.”
Damn Chloe... giving record store clerks a bad name.
The reason anyone can afford a centrally-located 1-bedroom apartment on a record store clerk's pay is because thousands of your neighbors choose to live in buildings built after 1960.
Maybe be nicer?
Those are some intense iron gates.

Medium warm take… just like “YIMBY” or “Woke” - the concept behind Abundance remains as strong as it ever was.
The word gets attacked and meme’d and undermined because the underlying idea is much harder to deny.
They killed the brand because it was the easy target.
My laptop gets really hot and slow anytime I’m in a Zoom meeting that lasts much longer than an hour… and tbh I don’t blame it one bit.

Hey #GoDucks community, I'm trying to help a brother out... what's the best way to eat cheap in Eugene?
El Super Burrito was my jam back in college, but it's been a few years.
My guy Mike Gundy is going to be in Eugene for the game this weekend and he's on a budget. Gimme some recs to pass along!
