As someone who grew up on the Jetsons, having things flying through the air with a part of our future I'd rather Amazon use drones than flying cars But out knee jerk council left at the chance to deny us this Jetson reality.

It's a dot com not an org. I really don't understand this Can you please tell us the rent that they pay including the amount per square footage and if it's triple net. They're in a public building so this information should be public

I just saw PAT endorsements and it seems like we have a bit of a disconnect between who they endorse and what's good for Portland Hard to trust anything or anyone these days. Why is there a for-profit martial arts company at the MAC - is it a contract to a friend? Not a good look.

Why haven't you said anything about the shooting and the stabbing? Because you have a narrative to push If you want the state to improve, you need to improve your relationship with the police. You're a leader, not an activist

Why don't you turn this into a gratitude post for everybody who works and contribute to society? We all need some attention And I do believe that city and county government should be working in the office. Lean on your colleagues at the county to get back. Safety on the street will improve.

According to Google, the husband Wife live in Cedar Mills. Wouldn't it be great if we highlighted people who lived and worked in Portland? I wonder why they chose Washington County and not Multnomah county Taxes, schools Maybe could vet who they profile a little better

Both the husband and the wife work here. That's a lot of attention to candles. I hope their business can support two people, a rent and their home costs. That's a lot of pressure. Will be tracking this company since you highlighted them.

I don't think Kroger is going to be opening up stores. I can't take you seriously when you say that it's easy to open up a supermarket Are you not following the discourse in East Portland? Avalos continues to jump up and down with excitement about a grocery outlet.

Multnomah village has a coffee shop every other store these days. It feels so sad to lure people into small business and then make it too hard.

But they will try I thought we didn't want cars on the road I grew up on the Jetsons. These young politicians are displaying they are yimby Luddites If they cared about the birds/environment, they'd not let homeless camps destroy protected areas.

As far as I understand, they answer to the DSA Which is not what the charter says. I think it's a violation. I hope at least one of them said something.

The mayor says we can't expect an upturn until 2030 which I think is outrageous The people in charge now are the ones to blame for keeping us here I don't even believe 2030 at this point

Big money. And we just expanded PDX Also big money. How about rightsizing our airports? Pdx always feels empty now that it's bigger! Instead of closing schools.

Why this matters? If Portland is doing fine, people in the state will feel better But when they see Portland struggling as much as we are, they just make fun of us Especially when we won't admit it Many of these issues are not important until we get "back on track" do your parents own an Arco?

"Public communications" is kind of broad Is it about how not to be rude to constituents? Some of your colleagues need to learn that Do you all agree with headline below yet? Or still in the Portland is fine delusion? Why is Eugene airport expanding? is Pdx that bad? bsky.app/profile/oreg...

My other suggestion was to turn the schools you're closing into distribution centers since they're so sensual to every neighborhood Teach the kids how to use the drones! Knee-jerk rather than being creative So on brand for Portland. Gotta protect all residents of Laurelhurst from noise

Once again, this feels like a Knee jerk reaction Why assume these are bad things? Can you show us "something" that tells us this is bad It sounds NIMBY It's about saving jobs at Amazon!What about our small businesses around the corner? Let's get cars off the road! i need my delivery by car!

Great ideas @bepositivenow.bsky.social · 14/10/2026
We either want cars on the road or not This is a way to reduce the cars I'm glad others are using the word Luddite and NIMBY The hypocrisy in this town is off the charts. Not near me! Be open to change.Maybe the closed schools can be used as distribution centers since they're community hubs

You're sounding a nimby now. If you said, let's support the small businesses of the world, I appreciate your argument more than… We need to protect Amazon driver jobs

That's not an explanation as to why you need to get so involved so quickly because some person asked you to You need to focus on revenue for the city

Portlanders are Luddites. If we want fewer cars on the street, maybe this is a solution Again, I don't think this is a Portland specific issue at all I'd like my city officials to continue to concern themselves with increasing income, i.e. revenue They keep distracting themselves.

If the fireworks conversation doesn't mean anything to you Ask Novick because he ran the meeting. I kind of think you were in there because you were joking about how your meetings get viewers If I'm mixing meetings up, that's not the problem. I'm paying attention. Appreciate the civility

Why did you post on this account? You're not running for reelection. Please leave drone conversation to the state I heard fireworks convo and no enforcement because every city has a different plan Push this to state and make them come up with solution. Critique their plan with Portland eyes

This needs to be a state issue. Drones will go over city lines. This is a bigger issue than Portland. We need jobs. Tell the councilors to focus on that Bc without tax revenue we can do nothing.

Who is hogging real estate? Real estate isn't something that just happens. Please explain what you mean. Our politicians throw around phrases hoping no one asks about outcomes. Like actual numbers in the social housing discourse. So far nothing beyond govt runs it. Trust us and not landlords

It's time to give families safe spaces including their preschool. Why have you not spoken out about the make preschool teacher at childswork preschool? This is not how to use our tax money. Please don't be silent Or is it inconvenient and that makes silence ok Parents are not happy.

Why haven't you spoken about the preschool for all scandal? A male teacher being sexually inappropriate with a preschooler at a child's work, one of your locations. Your silence is revealing. It's about you. Not us. It's never been about us Enjoy your west hills view.

I think this should be a state solution not a city by city issue. More time wasting. Like waymo. This is bigger than Portland. Focus on local issues snd collaborate with the state We don't need every city to have a different response. Drones and waymo will cross city lines!

Nostalgia Remember when people talked about the 50s They were doing the same thing Am I old? Am I still relevant? The progress you've seen since those days wouldn't be here if the DSA had been in power. Capitalism does help create "nice things" We aren't giving our phones up for landlines

It must feel good to talk about the poors. I heard you live in Lake Oswego Why did you choose that place with that bizarre nickname It seems that anyone who chooses like Owego knows what they're doing when they move there Why not east Portland? It's nice now thanks to effective D1 councilors.

This is type of topic we want to see words about But you don't opine about this You're joining the "I'm outraged" brigade That's the politician you've become We didn't know you before, so your reputation is being built now Will that translate into only one term? bsky.app/profile/oreg...

You just wrote more about a politician than you did a civic solution You are politician that we are used to Trust us because I use words The outcomes may not be visible, but I use words I hope there will be max of one DSA per district. Or maybe their vote will split and there will be none!

Id take Lane over Morillo We can't have two dsa from that district. We should only have one dsa for the city anyway. Lane's social media media is really good right now Morillo is way too self focused. A little bit like you are.

That's what the mayor said but apparently the council wanted him to fail They like the phrase "social housing" I've asked @counciloravalos.bsky.social many times how many units are planned for 10, 20, 30 years from now? Not one response. No plan. Just fun phrases thrown around to give an illusion

This is a description of you. "A time waster" When we vote you out, you can campaign for others and open that hot dog stand you obsess over "The effort showed an excessive investment of elected officials’ time for an ordinance of little consequence."

But they aren't even paying attention And if they do, they don't think they have any ability to solve it We have children in power. Who only know how to blame others. I'm really starting to question why many of them ran even. To waste our time???
