Can't stop thinking about how at the Tualatin Pumpkin Regatta yesterday I waited in a long line at the table for a Railroad Safety Education org because they were giving out train whistles and I wanted one & when I got to the front of the line they told me they were only giving them to children 💀

Can't believe @opb.org failed to mention that Judge Immergut is also the judge who granted Liv Moultrie a temp restraining order allowing her to sign with the Thorns as a 15 year old.
On Sunday, U.S. District Court Judge Karin J. Immergut blocked President Trump's deployment of the Oregon National Guard. She is now at the center of one of the most consequential cases over executive authority in modern presidential history. Here's a deep dive into who she is.
Karin Immergut, judge who blocked Trump’s troop deployment, ‘well respected’ and ‘has no fear’

An Army veteran on Portland City Council is calling on current and former members of the U.S. military to speak out against President Donald Trump’s planned deployment of the National Guard in Portland.

Mitch Green, an Army veteran on Portland City Council, urged current members of the military who may be deployed to Portland to consider their oath of services to “support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies foreign and domestic.”

We've all heard the stereotype "Portland cyclist". What does that even mean?
If you care to look closely, you'll see our bike lanes are full of a beautiful array of humans — and that when folks use that phrase it says more about them than who's actually riding.

I don't care how much you want a player subbed off the pitch, its crazy to chant against your own goalie. Absolutely LOSER behavior. Chant at Rob Gale if you want, but to the fans chanting "We want Bella", I hope you're embarrassed because I was embarrassed to be in the fan section with you.

This at 4pm on a Friday definitely seems like a great Democratic process. No notes.
The #Orleg Dems filed a "gut and stuff" bill they could fill with transportation policy just in case HB 2025 flamed out.
It's HB 3402-3 and it has a public hearing today at 3:45 pm. If HB 2025 is truly dead, than HB 3402 is the new transportation bill.

Randomly @mayorkwilson.bsky.social brought this same idea up at the Portland Freight Advisory Committee meeting this morning!
Why aren't truckers super pro-transit/active transportation? If fewer people drove, they'd deal with fewer congested roads and their jobs would be much easier without having to navigate around so many passenger vehicles....right?
