I don’t think people understand how organized pro-sweep turnout will be to wednesdays council meeting.

Register for item 8 ASAP. If you can’t make it, testify in writing:

Pelosi will seek the state Senate seat currently held by Scott Wiener. His term doesn't expire until 2028, but he is a top contender to replace Nancy Pelosi in Congress in 2026.

IT: Welcome to Derry and interviews seem to be confirming that a character w/same name as another Stephen King character is definitely him, not an Easter egg or a multiverse duplicate or something. Good episode, I'm enjoying it.

Donald Trump’s approval rating has tanked and Republican suffered heavy losses in last week’s elections. There’s never been a better time for Senate Democrats to cave on the ACA extension.

My red line has always been lowering health costs for Americans. Donald Trump and Republicans don’t want an agreement that meets that bar. I’m a no.

I'm enjoying the latest @keithrosson.bsky.social novel COFFIN MOON! Read a chunk yesterday tabling at the comic swap between crowds, and had to read an even bigger chunk today! Lots of cool Portland stuff. Lost Boys movie was a very good pairing for the release event at Hollywood Theatre.

Fun to see a different crowd in Salem yesterday. I did get folks bargaining again (which is fine! It's a swap, not a con or a brick & mortar). One guy was all, Not unless it's Half-Price Books! Uh, it's a new book on wholesale, I'd get nothing, BTW it's sold-out all over (Abs Batman v1).

If the sandwich physically hurt someone who was wearing a bulletproof vest then it sounds like a good hefty fucking sangwich, one you pretend you’re not gonna be able to eat in one sitting, and I want to know who made that daddy.

You love to see it.
A LOT of industry folks need to take "I think there's a very high possibility that this is all a bunch of horseshit" to HEART.

I didn't participate much in the 'guy fainted at White House' discourse yesterday but it's interesting how some stuff like that catches on. People can almost directly relate to seeing a cruel person who ignores someone right there needing help.

Jeffries: "It's incredible that Trump & Rs have decided to weaponize hunger & starvation by unlawfully withholding SNAP benefits from 42m Americans. But this is not surprise when you consider that in their one big ugly bill, Republicans already enacted the cut to SNAP benefits in American history."

HAPPENING NOW: Judge McConnell is sharply rebuking the Trump administration for what he said was defying his order to make full SNAP payments by Nov. 5. He has ordered USDA to make the *full* payment to states by tomorrow.
