It's really quiet today in Portland. So quiet that we aren't making sarcastic jokes about #warravagedportland.

Press at Portland’s war-ravaged ICE facility.

Cameras point at the Immigration and Customs Enforcement building in South Portland. A CBS (?) reporter explains on the phone that nothing is happening.

Scenes from #WarRavagedPortland
It’s apocalyptic out there. Specifically, the sparsely populated post-rapture streets. The terrifying trees.

I love that so many of our elected officials are posting images and video from Portland to show how beautiful it is. We love our community. Check out this one from US senator from Oregon @wyden.senate.gov on a 10pm night walk around downtown PDX. #warravagedportland #wartornportland

Braving #WarRavagedPortland for a nice birding walk with @sarahlovesbirds.bsky.social. It's hellish out there. Couldn't find a latte for a good .001 clicks.

Huh. As I was saying...

"Body-camera video of a Border Patrol agent involved in the shooting of a woman who was allegedly chasing agents in Brighton Park over the weekend shows an officer saying, “Do something, b----,” before pulling over and shooting the woman five times."
