Sheila Heti is making me think that this world would be a much better place if we were all crushing hard on a cutie all the time instead of causing drama just to fill up the hours.

Went to a D2 city council meet/greet last night and was heartened to hear them ALL talk of the need for non-police interventions, better ped infrastructure, clean waterways, and community care for houseless neighbors. This new format for council really is bringing out the best in people. (So far)

Shout out to Portland City Council for holding evening meetings so that residents can engage with gov while also having day jobs AND for holding mature, thoughtful, and oh-so-well informed discussions at them. Really loving this new council so far.

Approximately 1 kerjillion friends tipped me off that I NEEDED to go see this show and they were not wrong. I’d like to pass along that gift of a recommendation: You NEED to get offline and go see Emily Counts show at Oregon Contemporary.

“Arresting people who live on the street does not improve our shelters, it does not create the services people need to get stable and become ready to find housing, and it does not create the jobs Portlanders need to get back on their feet.”
