It's admittedly been about a decade since I got bounced out of PDX by stomp-clap-hey gentrification but I'm having a HARD time putting any stock into the "PDX cops are turning against ICE" rumor mill. Those cops were everything I feared about the CPD & LAPD but cooked down into a smaller concentrate

My god.

“Watson said she saw agents dragging residents, including kids, out of the building without any clothes on and into U-Haul vans. Kids were separated from their mothers…’It was heartbreaking to watch…seeing kids coming out buck naked and taken from their mothers, it was horrible.’”

I like Jimmy Kimmel. I really do. I have no issues with him.

I'm talking about something very different.

Kimmel was only suspended. But he's back now. Karen Attiah and all the other Black journalists are still fired.

Y'all do know how to fight, when you want to.

But you don't really want to. 🤷🏿‍♂️

"The man who shot Charlie Kirk was a conservative white man from Utah. But the fact that we assumed it was a transgender Mexican demonstrates how out of control Leftist rhetoric has gotten." Tomorrow in the Washington Post

my father-in-law is a “I know a guy” Guy. sadly all the old Guys are aging out of the Guy Economy. Guys are fundamentally incompatible with Hustle Culture because it’s not about “winning” a deal, it’s about collecting favors and goodwill in a mutually-beneficial cycle. protect your local Guy Economy

Fuck you. You've already determined we're acceptable losses for an election years away. You're locked into the sentiment. May you meet the same fate you cynically condemn us all to

One thing I see over and over again in my practice is sex workers who *think* they have certain rights under the law because of Google, ChatGPT, and, well, fairness, only to find out very differently in legal proceedings.

If you're a sex worker, please, I beg you, consult with a lawyer you trust.

It's all fun and games until your leftist friend who escaped from Indiana four years ago starts talking about Marx like he's the Gospel of Luke's protagonist and you realize 1.) exactly *what* they escaped from in Indiana and 2.) they've been bringing that shit to the bookstore with them every week

I love you, but denying you the grandchildren you yearn for so much is healing justice. You weren't good enough to love me right; why would I, raised by you, undertake the endeavor? The difference between us is I have empathy where you just have a double portion of ego and charm
