He was the worst President in history. And when he got voted out, he tried to stage a coup. Then he stole national secrets and sold the ones he didn't store in the bathroom. He was convicted of fraud, found liable of sexual assault and convicted of 34 felonies. He is half a billion dollars in debt, owned by God only knows who, and the biggest national security risk the nation has ever had. But at least he's not a Black woman.

And have since the 1980s. I knew I’m high school that he was disgusting. Just seeing his photo would make the hair on the back of my neck stand up. 🤮
We women, hate your f**king guts with a passion that is indescribable.

The greenhouse at the Green Thumb Campus is just one internship opportunity for students in the Community Transition Program. Students get real-world experience while trying their hand at everything involved in running an industrial greenhouse. pps.net/Page/8997

We could seriously use new leadership of @PDXParksandRec that tilts @portlandraceway in a new direction. While bike events get squeezed out, it's not great that the only time to use the track is during races or 1 paid event per year. We shd do more carfree events at PIR!

I looked at the data they're using edopportunity.org/recovery/#… it looks like PPS is doing OK (!), it's districts that are urban and lower proportion of white students (east side metro), and smaller urban areas with a lot of Latinos (Salem-Keizer, Bend-Lapine) hardest hit

Just going to put it out there for anyone doing advocacy/organizing around changes to 82nd Ave. Please bring up "protected sidewalks". I know "protected bike lanes" is a common phrase, but I worry that folks forget we need protected sidewalks on streets like that as well.

“That’s not what trauma dump means” right. Yeah. But Twitter/the internet has weaponized therapy language, as they do, and started using it for “when my friend needs help at all.” I’m saying sometimes our friends need us. 😭

I’m not saying “always put your trauma aside for your friends trauma” I’m saying nuance matters and when someone needs you more than you need them in the moment… you’ll know. Trust me.

I don’t feel right about how much this is blowing up (wasn’t expecting it) without adding her gofundme. Since her son’s passing, she is now a single mom, her mortgage is in forbearance + still no headstone.Anything helps while you’re here. gofund.me/e425dfed

+ it shouldn’t be an empty “let me know if you need anything.” It’s better to offer options. “I can do this, this, and this for you. Which one helps the most right now?”

annie lennox finishing sinead o’connors song by calling for a ceasefire was perhaps the most meaningful and honest way to honor sinead’s memory

My husband got me a smart bird feeder for Christmas that sends me pictures of every bird that stops by and I’ve never been more delighted by a piece of tech in my life
