Been loving watching the Tour de France this year, and super hyped for the TDF Femmes to kick off next week! Even though I’d probably die trying to make it up the alpe d’huez, the views alone might make it worth it. This was a fun little combo of AE and Blender. #tourdefrance #tourdefrancefemmes

I got my first tattoo ten years ago by @nataliehall.bsky.social ! Unfortunately the only photo I had from it back then was this super super fresh one. Still one of my most complimented and favorite pieces I’ve ever gotten!

At this point idk if its even worth trying to explain to them that some of their own patrons would be down to make merch for them within their budgets.

A bar I really liked released a bunch of tshirts with AI art and it was so disappointing. There was literally a lady with 6 fingers and they still printed them

My therapist also told me to look at it from the angle of palliative care. Like my only job is to make her as comfy as I can, and thats all I can do.

So sorry to hear that Betsy! Going through pretty much the same thing with my dog. Its so hard. I talked about it with my vet and my sister in law who is a vet tech, and they both recommended keeping a tally of good days vs bad days and when the balance shifts, then it might be time.

My main technique when painting this small is just not breathing. I dont recommend it.

Ive also definitely seen them up around mt hood, like near timothy lake. Tryon creek natural area is a great place this time of year to see a ton of mushrooms in general

Trump announced that he’s directing federal troops to Portland. Portlanders look after each other, and that’s how we’re going to overcome these threats.🧵 ✅Report suspected federal agent sightings to PIRC’s hotline (1-888-622-1510) instead of spreading rumors on social media.

Taqueria Queretaro near Argay Park is great. Needing more restaurants/cafes/small businesses is one of Argays biggest areas for improvement in my opinion though!

I guess from his POV, Portland really is hell: -Very few McDonalds -Extremely bike/transit friendly -Queer people experiencing joy everywhere you look -City council stacked with really cool socialists. BUT, what if we told him that we also have: -golf courses -white people
