We don't know the health effects of drinking hippo bath water. All we know is the people selling it outside the south gate are not zoo employees.

Congrats to Harrell who has finally built more shelter than he lost.

13 units in four years.

He promised 2000 & says he built 3000. The Seattle Times shows he is lying, taking credit for others’ work, & for moving tiny homes (counts each move as an opening!)

www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell says he added 3,000 housing units. Did he?

Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell is seeking reelection partly based on the claim he’s responsible for adding 3,000 emergency housing units. A deeper look reveals that’s an embellishment.

No, this email does not find me well. I am on the trails, taking advantage of every moment of sunshine before the big dark.

The email can’t even find me at all.

Pfft. Can't even do it to an adult. It's easier now than in some years past. I couldn't believe I was willing to pay for any kind of online/streaming service and still couldn't watch a game.

Very respectful, since 15% of people experiencing homelessness are Native Americans, while making up only 1% of the population.

If you’re wearing a Halloween costume here this year, please don’t dress up as our boss. He’s very sensitive about his cloven feet and tentacles.

lol ég var að spá hvað væri svona gróft að ég þurfti að ýta tvisvar (2) á „show adult content“, og það var bara Naked Bike Ride frá Portland 🙃

"While your proposal to increase the bed availability in your shelter from 80 to 140 by purchasing accessory dwelling units was a surprisingly resourceful plan, the budget and governance committees have identified pickleball as the issue that voters care about most."

Thank You for Submitting Your Homeless Shelter Application, but We’ve Decided to Use City Funds for Thirty-Five New Pickleball Courts Instead

Thank you for submitting your grant application for a homelessness shelter expansion. We received many competitive proposals, including yours. With...

Temporarily trading in gators for gimp masks, several ICE agents reportedly infiltrated Portland’s Emergency Naked Bike Ride Protest on Sunday to see if they could finally find the leader of Antifa.
