Our friend Des is an artist and political prisoner serving 30 years in connection to an anti-ICE protest that he didn't even attend. On Halloween, Des will be marking his second birthday behind bars, so we're sending him some spooky, creepy, cute and crawly birthday wishes!

Over the last several days I've heard directly from parents who are scared and outraged about the PPS proposals for closure of their schools. They are calling for action from their elected officials at all levels. Today I have filed an emergency that responds to the urgency of these calls. 🧵

On this day in 1868, mobs of white people continued a massacre of at least 35 Black people in St. Bernard Parish, Louisiana, in an effort to suppress Black political participation.

It’s Teriyaki Tuesday! #dogsofbluesky #dog

My fellow chronic pain baddies, I recently purchased a heated mattress cover and it’s like sleeping on a warm cloud. Highly recommend for the those who already sleep with a heating pad, have pain (especially at night ) or get cold easily.

Lula now also to blame for Bolsonaro's corruption @nytpitchbot.bsky.social couldn't make this one up www.nytimes.com/2026/10/25/w...

I live in a rural town and, like, I don't know how to tell you this, but the girls play on the boys team and vice versa all the time because otherwise we don't have enough players for a game and it's literally always fine so stop being weirdos about kids sports and just let trans kids play.

insane discovery today that my gf didn't know who the unipiper was. I showed her a picture and she was like idk I've probably seen him online before but the name doesn't ring a bell

no no i don’t have debilitating morning insomnia i am experimenting with a biphasic medieval sleep routine

Lula Goes HARD

Yissss

since when did settlement get granted automatically because I’m pretty sure I had to pay £4k and also fill out a pretty long application and provide about a dozen pieces of paper evidence and also live here for a fucking decade and pay visa fees and health surcharges the whole fucking time

More than 5 million people have lost their Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, benefits since President Donald Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill passed last year. That has meant many more people are turning to food banks for support. https://to.pbs.org/47Sb4rd

Do any of you beautiful yahoos work, or know anyone who works, at the Army War College?

"Nobody trying to stop billionaires from being taxed has proposed anything to save MLKCH or any other lifeline hospital serving millions of poor people." I think the discourse around Prop 40 has lost the point that if we don't pass it our community hospitals are totally and utterly fucked.

PGE is trying to cut down 20 acres of Forest Park to expand electrical transmission for Data Centers. We need leaders ready to meet this moment & defend our forests and waterways from uninhibited Data Center Expansion. That’s why I’m running for Portland City Council on a 4 Year AI Data Center Ban.

Delightful grocery cashier: what do you have going today? Me: trying to get people to vote so my queer ass doesn't have to leave the state to keep a local job. DG Cashier: I'm turning in my ballot tomorrow at the library. (High five) #irememberBallotMeasure9 #vote2026 #tinakotek4governor

wait a democrat is polling +3 in montana’s congressional race and he is a smokejumper that looks like this? why has no one told the thirsty masses?

I am once again reminded that going WOOOOO is a very American thing I will shamelessly WOOOOO in this very euro conference

It's actually kind of emotional seeing this message up. Especially while we have heroes fighting in Toronto to keep streets safe.

I will be ranking Singleton and Meieran. I will not be ranking Brim-Edwards. She has not demonstrated a vision beyond “things need to change!” and for that reason, I think she is the candidate least likely to bring about change at Multnomah County. If you want another 4 years of JVP, vote JBE.

Tonight, I attended the Homeless Solutions Coalition’s Multnomah County Commission Chair candidate forum. Shannon Singleton and Sharon Meieran engaged in thoughtful articulation of where the County is failing and their proposed solutions. Julia Brim-Edwards decided it was not worth her time.

Mad props to all the #pdxpol weirdos on here. I made a voting guide for myself and several friends based heavily on wisdom from this great community. ❤️

genAI boosters are always like “you think you’re better than me because you drew a picture? You think you’re better than me because you read a book?” and it’s like, well, no, but you seem very unhappy

The mayor caved to Trump, removed DEI language, and this connected developer is dropping the r slur in public meetings and calling me a burrito in racist group chats but according to Willy Week the Big decorum issue is that I’m too mean talking about racism and sexism and other isms in this space

This is fucked. Really bleak how entrenched this is becoming.
