You’ll see posts here about sports (soccer/baseball/derby), music (LOUD), politics, birding, dogs, the natural world, kaiju, with occasional reposts from my merch acct @calyxworks.bsky.social.

Pretty much all affordability discourse could benefit from just posting this chart.
If you're in the better off America, all the luxury goods you want in excess are for the most part much cheaper. If you're in the poorer America, most of the shit you need to live/grow is more expensive.

I called my Senators:
“The shutdown vote shows Schumer & Durbin are complicit or incompetent – they’ve got to go.
I’m proud of Oregon, but I beg the Senate to remove them both.
The Dems have lost the country’s trust. No stronger action to help regain it than wiping the leadership slate clean.”

Friends, I'm looking to speak with people who are upset about the Democrats' shutdown deal and who can speak about how increasing healthcare costs will impact them. If that's you, I can be reached via DM or at [email protected]. We can also protect people's identities as needed.

The model of holding individual senators responsible is broken here. The retirees clearly agreed to take the fall. Which is why the nos should get no credit for voting no unless they move to oust Schumer

This vote has not happened yet. Call your Senators, especially your Democratic Senators, and tell them that a deal without protection NOW for health insurance tax credits is unacceptable.
BREAKING: Senators have reached a deal to end the government shutdown.

Unfortunately there's no way to prevent this. Sure it wasn't happening for like a century but oh well! Impossible to do anything about it!
Breaking news per Jeff Passan: “Cleveland Guardians pitchers Emmanuel Clase and Luis Ortiz have been indicted by prosecutors in Brooklyn on a host of charges related to a scheme to rig bets on pitches thrown in MLB games. Ortiz was arrested in Boston earlier today. Clase is not currently in custody”

Just talked with a professor from France who informed me that they just don’t do evictions in the winter where he’s from and that that’s extremely normal. It would be a BATTLE to get a policy like that in Portland.
We’re honestly barbaric in the United States. It’s absurd.
