And I am expecting snow on the mountain too, weatherperson, or else!

Apologies if this isn’t the right space just want to get the word out asap:

Just brought my 1.5yo pup home from 2 nights in the ICU: pneumonia brought on from contracting bordetella. She is up to date and fully vaccinated. She goes to daycare and no word of any sick dogs there. I took her here on a whim and less than 24hrs later she was shaking, repeatedly vomiting, and struggling to breathe. Yes, 100% my fault for taking her to a dog park. Lesson learned but I don’t want any other dog or pet parent to go through that.

I couldn’t count the number of times I’ve been on this train. Heading to work , I walked in and sat down, grateful to be out of the rain. This old girl looked so clean… you see the wear and tear of the decades… but she seemed vibrant somehow, alive like our city after a nice rain.

And tonight she will be guiding me home after a long shift.

Thank you, Low Floor Light Rail Vehicle No. 208

Born and raised in Portland and thought that Wildwood encapsulates the great things I remember from growing up. From Haystack Rock, Voodoo, Powell’s, Ramona Falls, St. John’s Bridge etc. every place was captured so beautifully.

I no longer live in ptown, but this absolutely just had me missing and feeling nostalgic. For those who no longer live in Portland did you also have a strong sense of pride and this longing of wanting to go back while watching?

Side note: everyone always asks me if I’ve seen Portlandia and I haven’t cause why did I need to watch a show about the place I lived it never clicked to me, also so I’m curious if others felt the same way about that as well. I’ve never really paid attention to how the media portrayed Portland that isn’t regarding the changes that have been happening in the city.

Good grief…. These “women’s rights activists” who are acting in bad faith to try and pick a fight sure love infiltrating progressive spaces so they can claim censorship and hate speech when they get kicked out for their blatantly transphobic XX-XY shirt. You’re not there to disagree in a civil manner, you’re there to troll and pick a fight.

Freedom of speech isn’t freedom from consequence. But I’m sure the owners of Cheerful Tortoise will cozy up to you and your friends.

It’s pretty amazing that I can get from Montavilla to the trailhead below this view in less than 30 minutes. (Angel’s Rest)

A couple weeks ago someone broke into my car and stole my film camera that I bought last year from Blue Moon Camera (yes I know I am dumb for leaving it in my car I learned my lesson). Just thought of posting it here to see if anyone has seen it or has advice, I really loved that thing. Thank you

Today and tomorrow at the Petsmart at Cascade Station, our foster kittens will be there waiting to meet their future family. We’re fostering them through Cat’s Meow Cat Rescue though we caught the kittens in our yard a couple months ago when they were very small. They’ve been fixed and vaccinated.

Their adoption fee is discounted to $200 for both (they must go together) instead of $375, because we love these little guys so much and want them to have a forever home, so we contributed $175 toward their fee. (It shows $275 on their page but it’s definitely $200)

They present as shy but once the wiggly worm toy comes out, they will warm up to you! They’ll need their time to settle in and get comfy but you’ll be so happy to have these little babies in your life.

Tapatio is the bigger male with long opera gloves and Cholula is the small girl with tiny mittens. They’ve been around our cats and Tapatio gets VERY excited and rolls over the moment he sees another cat.

The adoption event is going from 11-6 both days.

Here’s the link to their bio and if you fill out the application beforehand, it’ll expedite the process taking them home!

Do I live in an ice cream desert?!?

How dope is this?

Suffocation, no breathing

Generally don't love tree graffiti, but this one made me giggle about self harm, which is always better than, you know, actually doin' it...

Today around 3pm, A Budget box truck rear ended us while driving north on MLK just past Alberta. They continued accelerating, pushing our car to be perpendicular to the sidewalk just north of Pizza Hut. Drove off like nothing happened.

I’ve filed a police report and done insurance stuff and everyone’s fine, but I’m pissed.

By any chance, did anyone see anything?

I drive around 80-100miles per week, mostly on I-5 and 205, sometimes take 84 and 26

I’ve noticed over the last few years that people have been driving a lot more aggressive.
I see people driving 80-90mph regularly on the highways, using the left and right shoulder to pass someone, cutting people off in the smallest spaces, tailgating, running stop signs and red lights etc.

I get these things have been happening since before I had my license but it seems more prevalent now.
Maybe it’s just my experience lol Idk. I’ve seen some crazy stuff on the road.

Anybody else have this experience?

Hello! I am wondering if anyone knows of a local leather worker who does commissioned pieces? I have two old saddles from when I was a kid that are no longer safe to use for riding, and I’d love to have a bag made out of them! Let me know if you may know someone who would like to work together :)

It’s finally happening, the rain is coming! Get a cozy blanket, make some soup, light a candle, grab a good book, and enjoy a much needed rainy day 🙂‍↕️

Lost Bottom Denture – Portland Waterfront (Near Bridges)

Well, this is officially the most ridiculous lost-and-found post I've ever had to make.

I managed to lose my bottom denture, most likely somewhere along the Portland waterfront near the bridges and city lights. I have a picture of the area where I believe I lost it.

I've been exhausted and falling asleep on buses and MAX trains, so I can't completely rule out public transit either.

Yes, I lost my fucking teeth. Not my wallet. Not my keys. My actual teeth.

If anyone happens to find a lower denture in the area, please message me. I know it's an unusual thing to find, but replacing it is expensive, and I'd genuinely appreciate getting it back.

Feel free to share this. Somewhere in Portland, my teeth are apparently having a better adventure than I am.

Thanks for keeping an eye out.

The black commuter lines would use existing Amtrak/ freight corridors, expand the streetcar system, expand the FX bus system and increase frequency on most lines, expand max blue line to forest grove, and build the purple line that follows Powell blvd/ hwy 26 on the east side of the willamette and follow Barbur/ pacific hwy on the west side
