As someone with a career in urban planning it is always fun to watch amateurs do this stuff. Rebuilding a society of two million people is so simple, just let DOGE kids blob some colors on a map

As a youth I saw a traveling museum exhibit about special effects and they had the actual physical props of ripley’s loader, and the entire frickin alien queen, and the head of the American werewolf in London. All practical effects, I was in heaven
Ruin a movie by making it about Gary When Gary Met Sally
it’s social media for the ethnically gays
Using one photo already on your phone, what is the announcement tomorrow at 2?
corpsed up
Ah that makes sense. But really google “1789 patch”. They think it is 2A related for some reason
going to union station playing the game I call “tanks or no tanks” where I try to guess whether or not there are tanks today
True, but when I google 1789 patch, they are all 2nd Amend related
Iran contra followed by transition from Reagan to less popular Bush Sr and a recession and then gulf war?
They’re racking up views from humans or…?
Isn’t it incredible? Fraud is just expected. Theranos made the mistake of developing a real world product that involved poking people. If she’d made faulty software instead she would either be rich by now or being paid 7 figures to lead her fourth start up attempt
“Jokes”
Had to turn it off ☹️
pulls up chair
I like this for you. It seems nice
Like… *likes* likes?

I knew someone would get it 🙂
🎵everybody have fun tonight!🎵
This is the answer. It’s been cumulative and older schools don’t have any cooling systems
If Trump dies, Biden is going to have a field day with the press.
I wonder if they used to have more natural predators, or have there always been a bajonkers number of kangaroos?
Vance is totally uncharismatic and would engender no loyalty from large parts of the admin. In the new light of day, guys like Miller, Hegseth, Rubio, Noem, RFK become immediately apparent as the overmatched clowns that they are. GOP writ large tears itself apart fighting over the carcass.
We went to the fair this week and it is great people watching. Also cute pigs and goats
Oregon’s “flagship” university? Really? Don’t you mean the original, older, land grant university with 1/3 more students and 20+ consecutive years of enrollment growth 🤔 that just graduated 8,011 in 2024? Oregon STATE University, correct? I guess “flagship” could be subjective.

it's in that high school gym, but the photo is at a bad angle
This is nearly the platonic ideal of a Louvre post
What a mystery the way that gigantic fucking assholes encounter poor service everywhere they go. I just can't figure it out!
Oh, I didn't realize that her state/local political career is like *done* done
National Guardsman: "This is much better than being back in Tennessee with my family as the kids start school, and going to my real job so I stop getting behind on my work and my boss and coworkers don't resent me."
I can't believe Marion County voted for Trump. Yeesh. The Salem vote should be able to overcome the rural vote there
As someone else pointed out the other day, just on a practical level it makes sense to close those hospitals which are more expensive on a per-patient basis and serve fewer people in favor of hospitals in larger population centers. When budgets get cut, it forces these types of considerations
This is Bear. He was found on the streets with very little fur and inflamed skin. On top of that, his bladder had herniated, and he needed immediate surgery. Without intervention, his condition would have resulted in fatal complications. You can help him below ❤️🩹 15outof10.org/bear-2
Hasn’t touched grass in five+ years
It sounds like the BRICS are making new trade connections too
They aren’t looking good
I hanker for a hunka, A sliver, slice, or chunka I hanker for a hunk of cheeeese! I think he was some sort of cheese cowboy
"Did you hear about these horrible crimes in Chicago? The worst crimes. All they had to do was ask me, and I could solve it very quickly. But Slobby Pritzker hates 'Trump' and is doing a very bad job on crime."
You cannot appease republicans and make them be your friend. They will take whatever you’re offering and then humiliate you. I’m not sure why Matt Y is even a thing anymore
Lol you think he wouldn't do that to Mattis?
Ring o pigs
His/how whatevs
Do owls attack your car every day?! And his can I get them to attack my car?
Where I fuel up
At the Oregon state fair, respecting the Old Ways
He’s got some big feels
And from their bio, I think that poster is a white man??
One tricky thing about the current situation is that DC may be the least punk town in the country. I think there would be much more blowback in almost any other blue city
I know a couple of conservative elderly men who were smart enough to quit Fox News some time ago realizing it is dumb and toxic, but were talking up Bari Weiss and the free press last time I saw them
I’m sorry you are dealing with that. Feel for all of you
Also a lot of these jobs are not abundant in the private sector. Economists, scientists, foresters, meteorologists. There is stuff that the fed govt was doing for our benefit on a scale that the private economy and academia can’t absorb, especially in this economic uncertainty
Based on the true story. The one they don’t want you know about 😒
The whole place was getting pretty faschy
Damn, I chose to believe that they stormed the McDonalds and strung him up like Mussolini from the playland structure
Wait why is he a *former* mascot? Did he die?
Listening to a show in the radio about RFKjr and this country is so fucked
Interesting context thank you
While pulling them away from their actual jobs for a month or months
Maybe they have to run their own data center
he's 35 years old, so this will happen one way or the other
I will never accept military being enforcement, as a veteran it's an illegal order which military persons are required to disobey! There is no national emergency!
I wonder if I can get a mailing list of these parents. Because I would be willing to punch them in the nuts for the low price of just $10k per year
I think the joke is very much on the parents who pay this and assess ten years from now what type of "education" their kids have gotten. Would love to know where the $65k per year goes though if not teacher salaries
I like Chotiner and I'm glad he pins people down, but I'm just struck by how he mostly just asks the evident follow up questions and every journalist could do this.
T-Swift using her immense wealth to buy the Epstein Files like Michael Jackson buying the Beatles catalog
It would be an interesting experiment to make chat bots that are openly contradictory or even opposed to a user's ideas. My guess is it would drive users away
a series of work sessions and tie-in to a university research study under an additional grant (likely back-door funded by a pro-Israel entity) to study potential outcomes and compiled in a report that comes out with ambiguous findings three years after Gaza has been obliterated. Task force.
The Task Force will hire a consultant to start a fact finding mission that will convene a focus group that will offer feedback that will be ignored in a white paper that will recommend that the consultant be hired on for follow-up tasks and bigger budget that will include
Longevity, living forever. But needs a plausible technological advancement to string people along until they realize it isn’t working. Crispr maybe
Do beef tallow people understand that normal people have no idea what beef tallow is and that the phrase "beef tallow" sounds disgusting?
One 20 year veteran burns a US flag in defiance of Trump’s illegal call to imprison people for one year for this constitutionally protected form of protest. He is arrested.
We are fully through the looking glass peeps
But it has activations. Can't get enough of activations.
I always find this type of insult so funny because Andrew Cuomo can't bench his own body weight either. What kind of attack is that?
One of my absolute favorites
This is amazing and it 100% could not be happening in the US
I'm still seeing news stories which suggest the US govt purchased a 10% stake in intel. But that's simply not true. They're pointing to money that was already appropriated as part of the CHIPs bill and other programs. Intel gave Trump 10% purely as a result of threats.
I could actually see the purple ones becoming a trend. But I live in Portland
Last night in bed I had the horrible realization that Dick Cheney is still alive 😩
The Bulwark/Never Trump crowd is only useful insofar as they can communicate to and convert other moderate or former Republicans. The left is not interested in the thoughts of a bunch of people who have been wrong their whole lives
Strange how he hired so many people he now disparages. He hired them.
I respect your thoughts. I think that Steven Miller and Russ Vought are getting what they want. And Trump is getting his personal corruption $$$. But in a lot of other aspects the admin shows incompetence IMHO
I admit they are doing a lot of intentional damage, but on the economy? I don’t feel like they want a bad economy or that anyone thinks all the tariffs and state capitalism are a good idea other than Navarro and Trump himself
Counterpoint: this admin is pretty dumb
at least two of them are slightly smiling bc they feel silly
It’s so embarrassing how many of these “men” have behaved in tennis for decades now. Pathetic
He looks like he’s playing the spoons
My understanding is homeless implies that they don’t have a place in the community. For example in my city, an unhoused person has a home. Portland is their home
No football at all today? I’m okay. I’m alright 😬
It’s a permission structure
Mark, a rule of thumb: no one ever cares about the travails of a billionaire ever
The Fak brothers are sort of like cute animals
Sadly from the videos I’ve seen from DC etc, he is still in better shape than at least 50% of ICE agents
Your apartment is totally self sufficient now you’re good
Probably launching an invasion of Venezuela will reduce the number of Venezuelan refugees probably
