I love how Rep. Joe Neguse reframed this question.

Criminalizing homelessness is cruel. Shelter beds are only part of the solution.

They had little choice after cutting all the minority news staff. They can't fire white men or they will get civil rights charges brought against them.

Slappy Anniversary!

They have upgraded the griddles since my last visit (some time ago...).

In like 15 years the median silicon valley tech worker guy went from "So you more a frisbee golf guy or a quidditch guy? We got both on the quad every thursday" to talking like an Elden Ring boss "I worship the god of all that will be gold, yet to be birthed from the loins of a data center"

Or that they won't just appeal it, literally, to death(s).

I've used my phone as a flashlight vastly more than as a telephone.

Absolutely! Let him run for mayor or state rep. No need to make him a Senator.

HE IS RUNNING FOR SENATOR.

Start locally and show us something for a few years and we can chat.

It's important for us to support our local food banks because Republicans would rather spend our tax money to murder people on boats.

Practical stuff such as: distribution to areas where food is needed. Public support only lasts so long before we're onto some other tragedy. Things are likely to get worse for more people.

Kim Kardashian, Rob Schneider and Theo Von are founding an organization to reestablish "Ignorance" as the national default.

Politicians:

Don't post on Bluesky that you're publishing resources on Instagram.

Be smart.

You can spot them in their giant shiny brand-spanking-new pickup trucks.

I know it's not a perfect system or long-term solution, but I'm really proud of the Portland businesses and community coming together to try to make sure people are fed. Coffee shops, food carts and restaurants offering to feed anyone who needs a meal, no questions asked.

Can't wait to see how the Money Heist crew gets out of this one!

Just want to reiterate that there’s no reason for this. There is no increase in crime. There are no riots. There’s no insurrection. They’re doing this without provocation. At least until they create one.
