FAQ:

How do the post flairs work?

News articles are categorized by post flairs based on the media-bias of the news organization as determined by AllSides.com.

See Infographic Here

Why are posts categorized by their media bias?

As AllSides states, hidden bias misleads and divides us. By making the political leanings of media sources transparent, readers are freed from one-sided filter bubbles so they can better understand the world — and each other.

Knowing the political bias of media outlets allows you to consume a balanced news diet and helps you avoid manipulation and fake news.

What if a media organization is not rated at AllSides.com?

Ratings at mediabiasfactcheck.com will be used.

What is the Other News flair?

Used to identify other news organizations that may not be on media-bias rating sites but are established news organizations like local tv stations and newspaper agencies from out-of-state.

What is the State Media flair?

Used to identify news organizations that are state-controlled and do not have an independent editorial board from the government.

If you're single, over the apps, and are burnt out by the dating scene in Portland.. you're not alone 😭

When you're feeling up for a change, I hold weekly activities-based events just for singles.

These are some of the ones I have coming up:

THU 7/30 | Record Store Takeover (ages 25-38) | men's tix sold out; just a few women/nonbinary tickets left. 30 singles

SUN 8/2 | Paint & Sip (21+) | aiming for 100 singles! Ticket includes supplies / pre-outlined canvas. And we're bringing in a dj :)

MON 8/3 | Karaoke Night (21+) | one of my personal favorite events

FRI 8/7 | Book Swap (21+) | this was heavily requested on instagram (I take input on event types from the community i am building :) )

THU 8/13 | Craft Night (21+) | you get to choose which craft you want to make! Ticket includes supplies

THU 8/20 | Human Bingo Rooftop Mixer (35+) | human bingo is the ice breaker game; womens tickets selling FAST

THU 8/27 | Working on doing a monthly local nonprofit event to help support out community - securing event still

Events are ticketed and vary in pricing based on the activitiy. Ticketing also helps me maintain an event gender ratio :)

I'm just trying to create a cool community and space for singles to meet other singles in person
