Hearing Mayor Wilson go on TV and say (paraphrased) that Portland should not be innovative or try new things is about the least leader-like thing I could imagine a Mayor saying about their city. Come on, man.

Some people want Portland to be a boring place where we aren't in the news for anything and their assets continuously accrue in value until they die. I want us to be a place full of life where people live. And that means messiness that some people will always look down at.

yeah, i never asked for an endorsement. was not something i was seeking nor was it something i was excited about. it’s true i do have litmus tests. one of those is police accountability with teeth

Monday morning thread on police misconduct reform: Protests in Portland started in May 2020 because of the murder of George Floyd. Every night brought a new example of police misconduct that needed a new state law to stop!

It's official: Starbucks is gutting DEI policies company-wide to curry favor with Florida politicians as our union's call for a boycott grows. Vote with your dollar. BOYCOTT STARBUCKS.

Fox News headline: Starbucks agrees to DEI overhaul after blockbuster Florida legal showdown. The coffee giant will pay $1M and submit annual compliance certifications for four years under the agreement

Here at the Sports Bra bar where a small group of transphobic fash are gathered again. The portland community has yet again shown the fuck up to defend the space and the community and antifascists greatly outnumber them Fascists have already been pushed so far out and there is still a large group

we also really need more people getting ready to run serious (and socialist) campaigns for city council IMO. if we have the mayor AND the majority, we can start getting shit done

well and to connect portland city council to the portland thorns, it's so funny how often i see or hear thorns fans being like "sameer kanal is the thorns candidate!!" maybe that will be a tiny boost in 2028 lol

no hate to american football fans, but man when i walked into my neighborhood soccer bar to watch the game the other day and first thing i saw was NFL on the tv my face and heart DROPPED. it was ok though, they had the thorns on the big screen out back, and it was a nice day to sit outside

lol and not only did that draw feel like a loss to us (the head coach even accidentally referred to it that way to the press), but chicago were celebrating like they just won they playoffs. and if it hadnt been against us, i would have been very happy for them! poor chicago

enemy of robots @hereticalshrew.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

without trying to be unkind to the underdog, chicago is the worst team in the league by FAR, and had been losing repeatedly at like 6-0, 5-0, 6-1. those are absurd numbers. we should have wiped the field with them, especially at home. but fuck it we're getting back up in the standings now

enemy of robots @hereticalshrew.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

in other but still portland news, i breathed such a sigh of relief at the result of this match this weekend. that 9/13 loss against chicago (technically a draw but c'mon) HURT. finally we are making some damn goals

wilson has been a disaster, who is actively making it harder for us to have good things instead of terrible things. i've been hearing about this idea a lot more recently and listened to the reasoning. maybe it really is time. city council can't fall in priority though!

enemy of robots @hereticalshrew.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

i've been coming around on the idea that we need a socialist mayor, tbh. i've been anxious about how much we need them in city council, who could replace them (and we still need that 7th), and also of course conflicted because of my traditional "all mayors are bastards" stance. but...

if you are pro-DSA and anti-cop, you NEED mitch to win. regardless of your feelings on him as a person. (although, he is an also an amazing person) look at the numbers on city council, look at who is opposing him, and the only rational option for someone who feels as you say you do is to support him

030

enemy of robots @hereticalshrew.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

any councilor who has ever posted praising police, done an event with them, made excuses for them brutalizing portlanders, etc should resign. bias on this matter is disqualifying for someone who will vote on the police budget, after all. where's that poll?

Yo. This is the union calling for a boycott. Here in America people like to say "Well I was already boycotting Starbucks!" No you were not. You were just choosing not to buy their stuff. That is not a boycott. A boycott is an organized, collective activity. "I" don't boycott: we do.

to move forward, we will need everyone in portland to announce on television that they are doodoo heads. don't worry: this isn't a humiliation ritual or anything, it's v important for secret reasons. after that, the portlandia statue should be replaced with one of my 5yo son winning the stanley cup.
