If you’re looking to be a hero in Portland today, go down to the cherry trees at the waterfront, walk up to the dozens of families and couples straining to fit everyone into the frame on selfie-mode, and offer to take their photo.

Anyway. Can’t do anything retroactively, but thinking about in light of news that facial recognition tech is being used against protesters and activists and how this might factor into your personal threat modeling.

When traveling through four international airports this week, I had my photo taken for facial recognition purposes at least once per stop. Unlike the TSA screening photo that you can theoretically opt out from, these were all mandatory to clear customs or board a plane.

First time in the (not so anymore) new county courthouse and it’s nice, but then I remembered that OMA/Koolhaus was in contention for the design and now I’m mad about it again.

Anecdote on the current state of transit in Portland: today I need to get from inner NW (on a major thoroughfare) to the county courthouse downtown, and all maps say I will still need to walk 9 minutes to get to my destination. That is basically one third of my commute time.

Is it just me, or does this parenthetical aside about Saddam Hussein feel a little out of pocket in an article about last minute Christmas preparations from UK’s House & Garden?

Screenshot excerpt of a white background webpage with the House & Garden masthead.

“There are two approaches facing anyone in this predicament. One involves deciding it’s far too late, and you’re going to introduce your children to the tradition of Thai takeaway for Christmas dinner followed by a whole tin of Quality Street (after all, nothing says Christmas like the preferred confectionery of Saddam Hussein – yes, he really did love a chocolate toffee finger.) The second is to recognise that, actually, in as little time as maybe half a morning – and without necessarily spending a fortune – you can pull Christmas out of the bag, even at the very last minute. We’re here to help with the latter.”

September and October are always the most intense work months of my year where I’m working 10-18 hour days, so I get to enjoy a naturally sharp decrease in my media consumption, which would be fine if crazy bad shit didn’t always seem to happen around now.

Honey Don’t! was really fun. It was like going to the movies in 2005. Classic Coen-esque setup of dumb criminals in a small town, charming actors, great sets and costumes, and a tight 89 minute runtime— hard to ask for more at the theater anymore.

Perhaps it speaks poorly of me and my deep-seated distrust of the internet information ecosystem anymore but if the last week(years??) has taught me anything it’s to spend a few minutes researching a person before blindly reskeeting/reposting their content

The one kinda upshot of being terminally online is that you’re not for one second fooled by the reputation laundering attempt of Chris Rufo writing a twee puff piece about the beauty of train travel and posted by the Free Press in IG-digestible slides, unlike, well, many of my Instagram friends

Fuck the stock market reports, this is what real life is like

More than four out of five Americans, 83%, said they were concerned about the cost of groceries, with 46% saying they were very concerned. Some 47% said they were worried about being able to pay their rent or mortgage, 64% said they were worried about affording an unexpected medical expense.
About 48% said they believed they would have trouble affording an unexpected $500 bill without borrowing. One in four said it would be "very difficult"
A quarter of those surveyed said they spent at least three hours a day worrying about their finances and ability to afford basic necessities. Another 25% of respondents said they or someone in their household had skipped meals in the past year in order to make ends meet, and 26% said they had fallen behind on their monthly bills over the past year.

And like yes he has been very steady with his support of IS, but if you look at that within the whole scope of his career and votes it makes evident these choices sit outside a fairly ideologically consistent record. (Maybe not that ‘05 yea for suspension of habeus corpus tho, that was fucking wild)
