Portland councilor says he’ll vote against parks tax increase he helped refer to voters “I love our parks, but this levy asks Portlanders to pay for inefficiencies the bureau hasn’t fixed,” Councilor Dan Ryan said Friday.

Dan Ryan's opposition is all you should need to know to support the parks measure.

God, this guy is the worst.

Whole screen of comments that say "Sell the team"

Just checking out the comments on the Twins manager announcement

when the portland police are saying “get a load of these incompetent assholes” it ain’t a good sign

The irony is that the alternative to elite deference politics is left-wing populism in the vein of Zohran, Bernie, and AOC -- which is a pretty diverse stage in and of itself and also relies on a multiracial and multigender coalition, but with actual *democratic* substance.

Had a cursed thought: Wisconsin coach Brian Kelly

Sorry you gotta keep him

If he hadn't said it, I wouldn't have known!

The Portland school district has a structural deficit and must allocate finite resources where they're needed most... even though Oregon has regular budget *surpluses* while not fully funding education. Maybe focus your energy at the legislature in Salem instead of this lawsuit? Fucking asshole.

@portlandbangers.bsky.social Saucy T. Sausage out at Portland No Kings march

The sign that captures my mood. #NoKings #Portland

there's a generational opportunity here to turn an neglected state highway lined with car dealerships into a cherished community boulevard lined with housing, api-owned businesses, sidewalks and rapid transit. we need to get this right not only for east portland but as a model for the region

Final update of the night most likely, just saw an ambulance going down the road towards the protest. An extreme night of violence by federal agents.

You can take the QB out of Penn state but you can’t take the Penn State out of the QB

Heintschel saw that Castellanos pass and said "pffft, I can do that"

Can they call targeting when the QB breaks a safety's ankles like that #miz

KRAEMER.

That's basically a twins win

Oh man we are going to have a lot of fun shit-posting and -talking these losers until they drone strike us in retaliation

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems... SIMON: What? SHAPIRO: ...Or saying... SIMON: You imagine that? SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over. SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level. SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this. SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

New Study Shows How Paris Pedaled Its Way to a Cycling Revolution Cycling through central Paris meant weaving between buses and scooters—a bold choice reserved for the fearless few.

“When streets became calmer & safer, more people felt comfortable trying a bike commute for the first time. Families began pedaling to the park…Local businesses saw new life…And cycling stopped feeling like a niche activity—it became part of everyday Parisian life.”

They closed The Roxy, folks. It died like a dog. People come to me, so many people, they say "Where do I get disco fries at 3am?" And I say, no more. It's gone. Pancakes. Some people say pancakes, some say flapjacks, but they're gone. Cocaine in the bathroom, but not here, and it's gone.

I love living in a city full of immigrants and tons and tons of people who are not at all like me and not like each other. It makes us all better and it makes our city better. I know I’m preaching to the choir by saying this on the lib app but I sometimes just get so overwhelmed by how special it is

Jamie Dunphy envisions social housing tower to replace closed Gateway Fred Meyer Jamie Dunphy wants a 14-story social housing unit where an East Portland Fred Meyer recently closed

It was maybe the wildest week in Portland news since Damian Lillard hit The Shot, and this story understandably flew under the radar. But if you're interested in what could happen when 1/3 of city councilors are, ahem, socialists, look no further than a recently closed Gateway Fred Meyer.
