One of my favorite concert memories is Ted Leo with a practice amp taped to his head.
The definitive cover of War Pigs was done by Ted Leo & The Pharmacists bum rushing the stage to join Quasi at The Crystal Ballroom in Portland, Oregon, in… 2002? 2003? Can’t remember. But I taped a little cig pack amp to my forehead and played it into a vocal mic and that version was the one.

Authorities *should* be afraid to escalate.

Authorities *should* hesitate in crucial moments.

Authorities *should* be in more danger than civilians.

If they don't want to be in more danger than civilians, they need to see if the Post Office is hiring.

Lots of "personal reasons" to get to Miami. Lots of direct short flights to SA for example. But Messi and Mascherano definitely have a certain amount of gravity that will warp that.

Do you want governor Drazan? This is how you get Governor Drazan.
Cutting property taxes for Oregonians affected by wildfires. Canceling planned freeway tolls. Pausing local new taxes in the Portland area. We have to keep going to make life more affordable for Oregonians.

And manufacturers have decided that they like this and want more of it so they are not going to sell direct to consumers anymore.
Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

Re: Bank of Italy (look it up) on PTFC shirt.
It's a bank so they are shitty and evil, but also they are big enough that they can possibly bring big sponsorship $ which is good.
This is the world of sports sponsorship though.

As I dig more into the nero-spicy morass that is my brain I noticed all of those "quirky" things about my family look an awful lot like stims and specific interests.

Pretty solid breakdown for non portlanders on why we are the way we are.

Some of my favorite childhood memories are trading origami creations with a street performer who pretended to be a coin operated clown.

We are that twee.
What The Hell Is Going On, a thread:

I’ve seen some thinkpieces and posts about Portland protests that fail to understand the long-term hyperspecificity of Portland culture/humor, and frame it as a sort of shitposting meme-pilled ironic thing. Which is wrong.

So I’m gonna give you my breakdown.

I would like to add the option of pronouncing it like the Nausicaans from ST:TNG episode Tapestry.
since we're letting podcasters run the FBI now, I'd like to make it known to any future presidents that if you appoint me i will pronounce the "human" in "human trafficking" like Quark from DS9.

there will be no other substantial changes

thank you for your attention to this matter
