Everything is stupid and dangerous right now, *but* we have an opportunity to make a least one thing less stupid and dangerous.

Please submit a comment to the PDX city planners asking them to prevent any further expansion of liquid fuel storage at the CEI Hub and mandate a fuel drawdown.

The emergency naked bike ride seems to have very successfully annoyed a bunch of the people who don’t live in Portland, wouldn’t normally spend time in Portland, but have ~ opinions ~ about Portland

“The administration’s close ties to a small but well-followed group of influencers and conspiracy theorists has amplified their voices, and they in turn have encouraged administration efforts to crack down on demonstrators.”

Fuck bootlickers. Worse than the stupid—at least the stupid have the mercy of ignorance. Bootlickers choose degradation with intent. Parasites lapping up power’s droppings, smiling while they swallow. Nothing lower than a collaborator. Nothing fouler than someone who kneels and calls it principle.

Frankly, Portland, which I’ve never been to, sounds like a really fun and creative and less self serious than it’s rap place!

OregonLive: Portland City Council member Angelita Morillo on ICE Barbie’s claim of ongoing terrorist attacks in Portland:

“I never thought renowned puppy killer Kristi Noem would be so afraid of protesters wearing frog costumes and chicken costumes, but here we are.”

I dunno about you but nothing makes me feel more positive than local and state government conspiring with a Texas fossil fuel company and telling that increasing risk is good for me, actually

He doesn’t live here & can’t vote here so I guess implying his entire union could replaced by untrained part-timers is the way he can get back at those who’d suggest they need more training.
Schmautz hates Morillo & Kanal more than he loves the PPB, it’s really something.

One of my friends just told me they saw TV ads from Zenith Energy about how we need “more positive energy”

The folks endangering our neighborhoods, river, and beloved park think we need to turn that frown upside down

Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

Massive escalation at the Portland ICE facility. Worst I’ve ever seen. More pepper balls than I can count. Teargas in the middle of crowd. Violent arrests. Some type of either noise or rubber bullet shotgun fired into the air then later aimed at protesters chests/heads at near point blank range.

Some actual traitors and insurrectionists out at the ICE facility tonight

Tons of right-wing influencers also at the Portland ICE facility, including January 6th insurrectionist David Medina.

another curmudgeonly thread for the many of you who will be entering organizing spaces.

all other things being equal, when confronted with one team of people recruiting you to Be a Thing and another team recruiting you to Do a Thing, please give serious thought to joining the second.

The right wing is weak and losing their minds over people wearing inflatable costumes.

I love how Andy keeps insisting that “antifa nearly killed him!”, but try as he might, he just can’t make “someone threw a milkshake at him” sound anything other than buffoonish

Those are three people in inflatable frog suits.
@MrAndyNgo
Now that the local and national press have started to cover the Portland ICE area round-the-clock in reaction to the President, Antifa have devised a plan where they are encouraging one another to come in animal costumes.

The costumes serve the function of masking the violent extremism to make the direct action appear like a family-friendly gathering on camera, and to whitewash the past ultraviolence. 

In 2019, Antifa devised a similar plot by giving out free "milkshakes" at a protest. But they couldn't contain their bloodthirst and nearly killed me when they saw me. In 2020, they mobilized a fake "Wall of Moms" where female Antifa supporters and members wore yellow shirts to act as human body shields while violent rioters behind them hurled projectile weapons.
