Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

Despite the city’s claims that Google played no role in this bill, Google’s data centers are increasing pressure on the city’s water supply. And despite Bentz's claim that he consulted with the Forest Service, Mt. Hood staff were not aware of the bill before Bark brought it to their attention.

Utterly disgusting to read this about Eddie Dempsey, leader of @rmtunion.bsky.social which also has serious questions to answer, allowing him to become leader.
