I endorse this DoNotRank guide for the upcoming election. It's worth knowing who you are voting for and many names might be unfamiliar--or familiar because they are funded by corpo interests and have ad reach. #pdx #orpol #election2026

The YT description says this is from Rachmaninoff's Prelude in C# and that Elliott called his version of this 'Punkrockmaninoff.'

How does a random Kellie Torres fan find a big trash can at a public venue, fill it with water, and calmly walk out of the building carrying this *trashcan* filled to the brim with *water*??? No questions asked by staff? Trash can was too tall to possibly fill using an ordinary bathroom sink.

IMO this is like Trimet cuts in that the board does not have levers to fix the problem, we need revenue reform ASAP and transformative efforts to bring families into the district, but the rage of the current moment is our best shot to get there. Otherwise the effort withers and dies quietly

Kellie Torres had to have someone rush and try to stop people from seeing my chalk because it is simple and it is true — oh, and because it exposes how she and @mayorkwilson.bsky.social are working alongside Christine Drazan mega-donors in the Oregon GOP to get Kellie Torres elected. #portland

Portland chalk sidewalk drawing that reads Kellie Torres is funded by GOP mega-donors who also support anti-choice, pro-life republicans like Christine Drazan. DON'T RANK TORRES.

This loser was rude as hell to me and then stood on top of the biggest chalk piece in front of the main set of exit doors, trying to block it from people leaving Tabor Space The chalkart reads: “Kellie Torres is funded by GOP mega donors who also bankroll Christine Drazan. Don’t Rank Torres.”

If you're voting in Portland District 3, DO NOT RANK Kellie Torres. The mayor and his cronies are pushing her on us to get a conservative majority on city council. At the City Club debate tonight, she said she supported using the Portland Clean Energy Fund money to hire more cops.

Sophie asks Morillo about her divisive behavior. Morillo says she’s unapologetic about wanting a seventh progressive vote, is angry that our council is divided on whether taxes should be raised on corporations, and that people care more about whether they can pay rent and eat than her posts.

Koyama Lane says package got pushed through at state without oversight. Kellie Torres says city needs to maintain Moda but we need more public private partnerships. Says no one has talked about making blazers invest in schools. False, Tiffany KL definitely advanced that.

One of the dolts came outside during the debate with a medium sized trashcan filled with water that he dumped out over the chalk messages about the number of Drazan-supporting GOP mega-donors who, for some reason, also really love and donate to this Portland "democrat" named Kellie Torres ! ! ! (?)

But nobody can win just being #2 or #3. To win, you need enough #1 ranks to not be eliminated immediately.

The manager of Tabor Space & the citizen dolts he recruited to help with this tried to convince me it was illegal to have "signage" outside the debate — despite Kellie Torres campaign publicly organizing a line of her supporters to stand outside the venue and "cheer her on" as she entered the bldg.

By the looks of this, maxed out a donation to Kellie Torres too. Republicans see the forest through the trees - we have socially liberal (as long as they’re not poor people) and fiscally conservative politics in Portland. But class consciousness is rising and no one buys that line anymore.

These are the kind of ppl supporting Kellie Torres. They use the "r" word. They wash away pro-LGBTQ sidewalk chalk. They root for a woman who is funded by the same conservatives bankrolling Christine Drazan and her campaign to become governor & take away abortion rights. Don't Rank Torres #pdx

The results speak for themselves. Allow them to continue to be in power and continue this unmitigated distasteful. Rational people must reject them.

D3 Peacock incumbents fight Clean & Safe and push Fair Share tax hikes. Working people need jobs and safe streets, not caucus theater. Kellie Torres is the common-sense pick.

Came into this debate pretty sure that Kellie Torres was the most conservative candidate on the stage and am leaving thinking Kellie Torres is the most conservative candidate on the stage. If I voted in D3, I’d rank Morillo + TKL 1&2, Esthe 3, Novick 4, Sollitt 5, and not rank Torres.

Just a reminder that PDX is Chinook, Kalapuya, Mollala land. All tribes respect each other's homelands. No other tribes can claim this land but a lot do and fail to honor the people who belong to this land. Shout out to Navajo Nation Dińe people are always acknowledging the tribes here first.

what is really annoying about these two posts is that they show why ranking novick to avoid a torres is necessary: he will at least move a little bit in ways that matter, he does occasionally compromise in ways that grant us small victories over a worse outcome but FUCK

Okay, so they really are "calling for a chalk party." Anyone want to maybe show up on a certain day this week and do "don't rank torres" chalk on any of the streets around the building? I can bring you chalk if you need, or you can just show up... like a staggered flash mob but for chalk.

I am not ashamed of the embarrassing things I thought or said or did during the period when I was really suffering because of the PTSD and relapse caused by the violence from the feds and nazi chuds. If you saw me do or write or say those things, you can feel sorry for me. *I* feel sorry for me!

If you aren't someone who's committed that much of yourself to a protest, etc. in that cumulative way, it's not something you're ever likely to understand without a psychology degree and a niche interest in this subject. But it is so fucking real, so solidarity shoutout to my og OTG 2025 comrades.

Protest PTSD is real... And there *is* a difference, expected but underreported, between the kind of PTSD you get from a occasional involvement and a few nights of experiencing federal/chud violence VS the kind of PTSD you get from doing that day after day for months or (for some) years straight.
