Lindsey Halligan will accept the Trump pardon, so she’s a future criminal?

Okay Indiana Jones
I know you feel like a real hero saying you ‘won’t stay silent’ against the ‘fascists’. But maybe consider people other than you. Your immigrant neighbors and co-workers risk having their families torn apart if the feds step up their presence in Portland. Maybe smoke some grass and come up with a long-term plan, instead […]
Ignoring this won’t make it go away
Imagine thinking ignoring the gestapo will make them stop. We all know Portland has been, not perfect, but not a war zone. The fascists in charge will say whatever they want. There is no rising to the bait. The Mayor, People for Portland, City Council, and Portland Business Alliance are reaping what they have sown. […]
Mass Shootings
So two just happened. Both by white men. Veterans too. I donโt hear anyone crying โterroristโ or banning white men from owning guns. Or veterans. Maybe we should ponder on this idea: letโs honor our veterans by disarming them, by saying โHey you can chill now. Go camping. Pursue inner peace. You sacrificed a piece […]
Flowers (In Guns)
Just as a metaphor, I’m remembering iconic photos like the ones of hippies offering flowers to men in uniforms with guns. Let’s follow through with the “hate can never drive out hate, only love can do that” quote we see quite often, but don’t always practice. Let’s make this city so filled with love and […]
PDX: Suck It, SinclairโNow!
Seattle is ahead of us! Indivisible there has weekly protests re Sinclair’s refusal to air Jimmy Kimmel in that market (www.mobilize.us/mobilize/event/850025/). Portland, with KATU as another ABC Sinclair station, hasn’t reacted similarly. Let’s write, phone, or even protest now (see https://katu.com/station/contact)! Then check out recent Kimmel youtube episodes to up online viewership and consider subscribing […]
Five minutes ahead of schedule…
It’s always nice to see old friends, even for the first time. It’s completely understandable why some of us are confused, after all these are confusing times. My two cents is that I try to look as inward as I’m looking outward. When I’m anxious or scared, I try to cut back on the caffeine […]
Democracy Dying in Tigard
Mayor Lueb was the 2nd Leftist to resign from office in Tigard since 2022. I still miss Singh on the city council. What started out looking diverse in 2022 when Portland felt the need to go conservative and got screwed, now is more conservative looking. I feel so unrepresented and wish I were. Our current […]
Do we have a child?
You have a radio head tattoo on the back of your neck. We both lived on s.e. 28th ave. We spent only one night together but I saw you months later in the frozen food section at Fred Meyer and you were pregnant. Was it mine? This was over 10 years ago. Iโm in my […]
It’s time we talked about immersive theatre.
Dear PDX directors and producers: just because your cousin’s friend’s aunt from Canada went to Sleep No More one time and told you about it, doesn’t mean you can slap the “immersive” label on any and all productions. Making an audience stand for a show that could have been done from a stage is like […]
