The Facial Expressions of Tethys by artist Julius von Bismarck. A suspended high-sea buoy that moves in real time. Sensors on a twin buoy out in the Atlantic Ocean send live satellite data to motors inside the museum. This makes the indoor buoy copy the exact, real-time movements of the ocean waves.

You should be dismayed that Portland's police force is contemptuous of the city government that's supposed to control it.

It would give prospective D voters a sense that their votes will accomplish something, which is way more impactful. "Democrats fight dirty against Trump" is a gift

Clicking on various filter by respondent's location filters, it seems like people want to live where they live, which is nice. Also, props to the people who selected a)all of Portland and b)specifically Ross Island

Wartime sacrifices are a good example, as are communities pulling together during natural disasters. People will do a lot against an external struggle, esp., against an enemy. It just happens that the enemies of the people were Biden's political opponents, so he just kinda jerked off about it.

This is one of those arguments that sounds like slopulism but is actually, if anything, understated. 56% of Colorado river water goes to GROWING FEED FOR LIVESTOCK IN THE DESERT.

While the majority of the media ecosystem focused on decorum during the budget they ignored the real story: 6 Councilors voted against an amendment that allowed Council to exercise our oversight powers to investigate what’s happening to these people. www.portlandmercury.com/news/records...

A document obtained by the Mercury that summarizes anonymized complaints shows a variety of recurring issues guests raise about Urban Alchemy-run sites. Among them, complaints of unsanitary conditions, allegations that staff stole guests' personal items, multiple claims that staff sexually harassed or sexually assaulted guests, and alleged retaliation against multiple guests who filed complaints. Other allegations include a lack of disability accommodations, staff failing to address violence by other guests, and staff trading goods and cash in exchange for sex.
