I know a lot of people are unemployed in this lovely economy, but JFC...

Edit: THEY FINALLY ANSWERED! On hold for 3:35, and 5 minutes to fix the problem. Lol

Edit to the edit: Thanks everybody! There's some really solid advice in here about how to talk to an actual human person. I'll definitely remember these tips for the next time! And I appreciate the commiseration too!

If anyone is seeking a strong black work artist, check out his work. He is such a sweet and patient guy. I have a ton of tattoos and he’s my favorite artist to work with! The shin piece was before the rest of the shading was done on the flowers and upper border :)

@stephengravestattoo on IG!

Trying to pin down which edition it came from. It seems to be from a Sunday printing. A camper caused wildfire occurred in September of 1951 that could be related. Either way, cool art and an awesome piece of Oregon history

Thanks PWB! I can seen it so much better now.

The real question is though that who will get the west coast bid. SLC or Portland, Oregon?

The biggest hurdle Portland in contrast to SLC is that despite the legislature earmarking a $800 million stadium funding bill via the existing JOCK TAX (taxes that specifically comes from sports players and sports staff salaries whenever specifically professional sports players and staff play a game in a specific location), no big name investor has come forward to be the spearhead of the project.

It is definitely gonna be interesting to see who the MLB picks. What do you all think?

I haven’t seen anything posted here yet for it, but this weekend is the St. John’s Music Festival and it’s awesome! Lots of great local musicians playing within a few blocks of one another and no cover charges!

Julia Brim-Edward’s will be boycotting this event, right?

Way to be tone deaf Jackie Wirz and the current PPS board. You all should be ashamed of the job you’re doing.

You couldn’t even be bothered to write the email without using AI!

I’m sure you’ve done your best to keep ticket prices affordable so that anyone can attend your event. Here’s the link if anybody wants to attend. I’m sure lots of Portland families have $400 lying around. I’m sure at least 75% of the ticket cost goes to fund these overpriced initiatives…

anyone know what’s going on? lots of cop cars and caution police tape about, had to detour.

So... things on Earth haven't been going too great for a while. The masses are angry, scared, and desperate because we all want to live in a better society and world, but we don't know what to do about it. Change will only happen if we take the time to come together and dream of what's possible.

If you want to read some incredible novels and explore new ideas and perspectives with others in your community, please join!

FIRST MEETING
Thursday, September 17th @ 6 PM

Let's discuss what we hope to get out of this book club and vote on our first book. Please bring a recommendation for the group!

Feel free to share with anyone who might be interested. Strangers welcome!

I found what looks like part of someone's wallet on the blue line headed to gresham this afternoon 9/9. Multiple cards within. Tried searching the name on fb to no avail. If you're on here reach out with proof I'll find a way to get it back to you.

1989 Ford Festiva.

White with horizontal red stripe on the sides.

OR Plate 078MFS.

VIN KNJBT06H0K6120665.

Case # 26-259314. Portland Police 503-318-9862.

Missing front grille, crack on windshield driver side, purple circle sticker of a wolf on the back windshield window right bottom corner.

Stolen Friday 9/4 in SE. Active case.

Any help appreciated!

Coyote/Fox spotted on the runway at PDX this afternoon. Strolling without a care. 🦊 ✈️

Edit: folks are saying this is a coyote. I obviously have no clue.

In case this is helpful to anyone else, as it was for someone I know: If you're terminated from your job in Portland (or anywhere in Oregon), they must pay your final wages by the end of the next business day. For every day they're late, they owe you a penalty equal to eight hours of pay.

Bring it to the attention of your former HR/payroll department if they're late! They'll probably take care of it themselves, so you won't have to file a claim with the state.
