I was there, too, and recorded this as people left the scene.
Hard to see in the video, but the baby in mom's arms was also crying with red eyes.

Just experienced the most intense tear gassing of my life by federal officers outside the ICE facility in Portland where marchers gathered. There was no fast exit as they indiscriminately threw loads of gas and flash bangs. Children were in the crowd screaming. @oregoncapitalchronicle.com

This year, the Timbit turns 50 years old.
It is estimated that Canadians have eaten enough Timbits to go to the Moon and back five times over the past half century.
But what is the history of the Timbit?
This is the story.

Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now

According to an internal email to Washington Post sports staff, the paper isn't sending any reporters to cover the winter Olympics next month. The decision comes as major layoffs are expected in the coming weeks.

Three weeks ago, my husband and I were hanging out with monarchs in the highlands of central Mexico. We stayed two nights with a small family run business near Macheros.

“What did you see?” asked Toad.
“I saw the sun coming out,” said Frog. “I saw the birds sitting and singing in the tree. I saw my mother and father working in their garden. I saw flowers in the garden.”
“You found it!” cried Toad.

Stayed at my aunt's house in Toronto. Next door they were blasting music, singing and dancing but honestly I felt happy that they could experience joy
I didn't fall asleep until 1 am and that was absolutely fine.

Always has been a brutalist masterpiece. Spent a couple of months here as a 16 year old volunteering for the summer camps.
There were lots of good memories here even after that summer.
