This is great. But it’s not enough. On Oct 18 I want our officials to address the masses on how we are resisting this regime. I want to see a list of protections and soft secession actions that will emasculate their authoritarian goals. Give us something to support, not just defend.

I worked at a newspaper and we ran “PUBIC NOTICES” for weeks before someone came in and asked if we were maybe a little too personal.

It’s time to rid ourselves of the false narrative that resourcing people’s health and welfare is socialism. It’s not. It’s caring for the best of us and the least of us. What a gift Medicare for all would be to the entrepreneurial spirit of this country! Small businesses would flourish. It’s time.

Since discussing the “how” is probably a bad thing (at least in first person active voice), maybe we can discuss the “where.” I hear Kilauea has some good lava pools just sitting there.

At least sparkles are inert. Imagine if someone sprayed ethyl mercaptan on someone. It’s harmless but is the compound that makes skunks stink so bad. It’s sooo hard to wash off. You wouldn’t be able to wear a face mask if any of that got on you. T-shirt’s, tactical vests, all ruined. Terrible idea.

It’s just a misunderstanding, folks. - Those on the left can’t understand how Republicans can justify their subservience to +rump and his cruelty? - Those on the right can’t understand why the left fears for the loss of human decency and democracy? It seams simple enough.

This is why this is starting to feel like a war in many ways. There is no reasoning. There is no justification. There is no lie too big or too small. They are so full of shit the only response to any of this is to simply remove them from relevancy. Vote them out. Sue them into non existence.

It’s just so petty and so cruel. What kind of human can justify this? There is no goodness or empathy in his/their heart(s). It’s beyond comprehension.

Ok, so what’s the plan here? Is he blowing hot air or is ICE coming to Oregon et al in bigly ways? I believe blue state govs and AGs are planning on this, and I hope our National Guards will be otherwise indisposed. But what do we do aside from rapid response alerts and trying to stand in their way?

oregonboatguy.bsky.social @oregonboatguy.bsky.social · 16/06/2025
Absolutely! Sometimes it means we have to recognize and confront our own bias and ignorance. That’s a hard thing to do, and it can take a lifetime of work. But it’s something we should all do, and it’s reasonable to expect others to work at it as well.

They are just sooo afraid of free speech that they threatened death and destruction. I’m hoping people showed in Florida for No Kings. Seems like all those seniors on Medicare might question their allegiances.

They always conflate loving America with loving Trump. When Trump is literally undermining Democracy every day, we’re going to definitely separate the two. They can’t be taught. They are beyond help and hope.

Great No Kings Rally in Salem Oregon today. Thousands turned out in perfect weather. Lots of traffic and a constant stream of horns supporting the protesters. Well organized. The message is clear: Donald Trump has Got to Go!
Crowd of No Kings protesters at the Oregon State Capital.Group of protesters in Oregon. Signs read No King, No Maga, No Ice; Just Say No to Tyranny, and many versions of "No Kings."

I wish they’d take the high road (silly, I know) and simply stop doing news. If they can’t call it clearly as it needs to be called for fear of their license, then just stop doing news. I’m pretty sure they don’t want to become just another run of the mill mouse-turd news station like Faux News.

My great grandfather settled there in the late 1800s and eventually owned several business and a Chinese restaurant. We visited his home on 3rd st a couple years ago. My dad was born in Colfax just up the way. Beautiful area. I need to come spend some time.

I hope Gavin is having a hard conversation with his National Guard Major General Jeffrey D. Smiley about obeying illegal orders from the +rump admin. It may not be Smiley’s fault, but it sure would send a message if he disobeyed. It would also send a great message if Smiley was arrested.

Perhaps Major General Jeffrey D. Smiley, of the California National Guard, should have disobeyed this order? Perhaps he should be arrested for violating state and federal law. This would send a strong message to other state NG commanders to not sacrifice their soldiers illegally.
