This isn't who I wanted revitalizing the downtown office market. We can put pressure on building owners especially if there are any institutional partners like pension funds or local owners who want to stay in good community standing. The local business papers should be covering this.
NEW: ICE is leasing offices throughout the US as part of a secret, months-long expansion campaign. WIRED is publishing dozens of these locations.
Where's our holiday train, @trimet.org?
🎄🎅🏻 DEFINITIVE RATINGS OF U.S. HOLIDAY TRAINS 🎅🏻 🎄👇 1️⃣ MBTA: The newcomer - I believe this is the first year the T has done a holiday train. Definitely a strong effort but very busy & a bit overboard on using vinyl decals. But bonus for the Phil Eng Santa on the orange line. Grade: B+
Forget Whamagedon and play Jingle Rock Bell A Palooza instead. Just enjoy the silliness every time you hear it or sing your own version! youtu.be/UquvMdmJEb0?...

It's gonna fuck him up if he finds out we have a store called Mr. Plywood.
Trump: "Portland, I mean -- every time I look at that place it's burning down. There are fires all over the place. When a store -- there are very few of them left -- but when a store owner rebuilds a store they build it out of plywood. They don't put up storefronts anymore. They just put wood up."
It's a new era. Time for my "The We Decade" shirt to go to that big rag pile in the sky, er closet. Base on this obit, Sid Simon was a cool guy, even if this shirt is a bit cheesy. www.news-press.com/obituaries/f...

Fun fact, the latest remodel of the Portland Building made it better than the original. (And also revealed the style is just "brutalism in a dress" another style these ding dongs hate without reason.) chatterbox.typepad.com/portlandarch...
Postmodern architecture was actually a very brief movement that emerged in the 1960s as a counter-reaction to modernism's austerity and uniformity. Examples of postmodernism include Michael Graves's Portland Building and Guild House. Also Phillip Johnson's PPG Place.
Update I failed to make hummus and eventually just threw out my $0.31 worth of chickpeas!
I had to see how long to cook chickpeas (that I'd sprouted) so I pulled out this turn of the millennium pamphlet from the defunct Wild Oats supermarket to look up the cook time. Gonna turn 31¢ worth of chickpeas into hummus! #garbanzo
We learned about the stock market in middle school. Even then I thought, how is this relevant to my life? I "bought" EF Hutton stock in our excersie. I thought stock traders would make money like Levi Strauss in the Gold Rush. I was wrong, they were kiting checks and their stock went down!
This is a remarkably clear statement of the political logic of baby bonds. www.ft.com/content/f460...
I referenced The McLaughlin Group today at work and my coworker who is younger than me, but not that much younger (I thought) had no idea. I am officially old or maybe just a PBS kid. youtu.be/QOLF_D7JVZM?...
