Dear PDX area friends, looking for a fun volunteer opportunity? Then check this out! I did it last summer, combining my love for hiking with giving back to the community. Plus, there’s a lots of family friendly trails to observe pika. DM me if you have any questions www.oregonzoo.org/wildlife/cas...
Cascades Pika Watch
Cascades Pika Watch volunteers conduct 1-2 monthly sitting surveys to track and log pika presence in the Gorge and across the region.

One of the best signs so far and those huddled masses that we're fighting for.

No Kings

#NoKings protester in Alexandria, VA responds to the GOP trashing the protests: "It's unbelievable. So it's fine when they protest, but we protest than that's anti-American. We are actually much more for America than they are because we believe in democracy.""

Only attend No Kings if y'all believe in one or more of the following:

Equality, democracy, freedom of speech, the Constitution, LGBTQ+ rights, voting rights, women's rights, due process, diversity, museums, books, objective truth, stopping measles and not going to war with Portland and whatnot.

“Courage is contagious and it’s spreading all over the country right now.”

@ezralevin.bsky.social and @chrislhayes.bsky.social discuss the growing backlash to Trump’s authoritarian agenda.

We will see you in the streets again on Saturday to say NO KINGS: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings

Take a picture of yourself at the No Kings rally.

Print it.

Put it in a frame.

Your grandchildren will speak about you for generations to come. You took a stand against fascism. You stood up for democracy.

Last night City Council unanimously passed our joint Protect Portland Initiative resolution and @councilorkanal.bsky.social's ordinance to codify our Sanctuary City status into law. We know that more work is needed, but the resolution and the ordinance give us a solid foundation.

The #NoKings protest this weekend will be the largest pro-democracy mobilization in history. It makes sense that the fascist, authoritarian dipshits on the wrong side of history are freaking out and trying to scare people into not showing up, because they are terrified of us and our resolve.

Nope. Nope. Nope.
Not cool.
Not here.
Not ever.

We will keep working with real translators and narrators (and artists and proofreaders and authors and...) without any of this "AI" bullshit.
The 2025 Frankfurt Book Fair heard that developments in AI audiobooks mean publishers will no longer have to decide whether to translate a book, but instead just choose which market to translate into 👇 #FBM25
AI audio means publishers ‘don’t have to choose whether to translate, only which market’, FBF hears

Jackie Merlos represents the best of Oregon. Today, she had a hearing on her immigration case. We have fought with everything we have to reunite her with her children and end Trump’s cruelty.

Would some rich person like to give us a lot of money? That would be neat. Just putting that out into the universe.
A shoutout is in order to @keithrosson.bsky.social, whose new book “Coffin Moon” is the perfect read for this spooky season. Set in 1970’s Portland, the book is filled with action, dread, and nostalgia, sometimes all at once. Well done Keith! #booksky #horrorbooks #vampirebooks

Authoritarianism is a cancer. And it's growing, metastasizing. In America. Now.

YOU are the cure. Do your part and join us on Saturday.

Do it for your country. For the Constitution. For your freedoms.

While you still can.

I don’t understand why we need a “Columbus Day” when this country celebrates incompetent white men failing up and taking what isn’t theirs all year round.

Happy Indigenous People’s Day!

We are all on stolen land.

And while Republicans try to whitewash American history, we acknowledge our country’s role in inflicting trauma on our Indigenous neighbors.
