Portland now.

Looks like we should buy another thousand tents for Portland’s homeless, @rabbiariel.bsky.social www.oregonlive.com/politics/202...

Did you know you can pay for Street Roots with Venmo? And leave something more for a tip.

Oh no! Josh Marquis and I agree on something. www.thelundreport.org/content/oreg...

Well that was short-lived. www.oregonlive.com/politics/202...

Cost of mental health care - in both misery and dollars - in Oregon increases when OHA & OYA can't manage care. www.oregonlive.com/crime/2025/0...

I was wrong. I thought figuring out Oregon's public health problems would be a full attention situation. www.thelundreport.org/content/oreg...

The PPB 2024 clearance rate for homicide is just 38%, much lower for people of color. What does this mean for you? How at least 41 murderers are loose in Portland tonight. www.oregonlive.com/crime/2024/0...

My friend Hunter tells of the worst experience that can happen to a husband and a parent, and the nightmare of every parent who lives with an adult child with psychosis. www.koin.com/news/oregon/...

Does Portland Have a "Strong" or "Weak" Mayor? rosecityreform.substack.com/p/does-portl...

For deflection to work (and it works elsewhere) 3 factors are required. 1 users need multiple follow-ups, 2 no barrier to quality culturally-competent services, 3 incentives such as drug-free transitional housing. In Portland these 3 parts aren't available. www.oregonlive.com/politics/202...

The most metal intro to any of the new council committees I've heard thus far.

Think about this as you're rooting for your team today.

My favorite library is back! www.oregonlive.com/books/2025/0...

Oregon NIH funding

I cannot emphasize enough how much an already terrible medical system got worse under Warren Roberts. Good riddance. www.oregonlive.com/politics/202...

It’s day 12.

New Mexico is about to do what Oregon legislators have evaded for decades - pay up. www.santafenewmexican.com/news/legisla...

#Portland: With the freezing of SNAP and WIC, it's a good time to donate and volunteer at your local food pantry. Please consider dropping off bags of dry goods (we need everything!) and donating to the St Johns Food Share. stjohnsfoodshare.org

Very much enjoyed THE KING'S LETTERS from 2019, a Korean historic with Song Kang-ho as King Sejong, who, apparently with a handful of monks, developed Hangul from Sanskrit in 1443. HA! I spent a lot of time trying to find this film, and now here it is - www.dailymotion.com/video/x9821ro

Only with investigations independent of police, such as in Washington State, will police held to the same standard by the same courts by the same prosecutors as the rest of us. Kudos to Roger Rogoff, the Office of Independent Investigations, & brave legislators. www.oregonlive.com/crime/2025/0...

Ahh NOSFERATU (2024) was as expected not good; pretentious, over-produced, more of an appropriation than an homage, subtracting tension and suspense for tacky effects. Man up and be a real film fan and watch NOSFERATU (1922) by Murnau with the unbelievable Max Schreck. youtu.be/FC6jFoYm3xs?...

Good morning America.

Some questions are only asked by madmen and philosophers, by @jeppsson.bsky.social Don't demur because of the language barrier, AI is here to help. These are super important issues within the psych disability community. svenskfilosofi.se/2025/01/21/v...

Nothing new after roughly 40 months of self-investigation (read: delay) by the PPB into its offensive and unprofessional training materials. Not a learning organization. www.kgw.com/article/news...

This is a stupid idea. Just because someone says they go to Twelve Step meetings doesnt mean they should run the nation’s health bureaucracy . www.nytimes.com/2025/01/18/h...
