Stop acting like people wanting stable jobs, affordable homes, good schools, and leaders who put our communities first are lofty ideals. Those are literally the basics.

This stage of having a cold is like rolling a nat 1 in a battle with gelatinous cube, falling face-first into the glop, and having it infiltrate your sinuses. From that point on, GC has advantage, because what are you going to attack it with?

Page 17 of #Eugene voting guide, here, purports to be an argument for amending the city charter to permit department managers to live outside city bounds. This isn't an offensive notion, so what's wrong with this? What's wrong - what's been gnawing on me all day - is that this support is written

Co-lunching Spa. It's like co-working, except it's the place you bring your lunch so you get a break from your workplace for an hour. Comfortable, lots of greenery, and there's probably a jigsaw puzzle table.

Across places, races & parties, most Americans believe violence has no place in our politics. We settle differences & decide our futures by selecting leaders, not threatening death to our opponents. Trump & his MAGA minions just keep proving they are a regime of the bullies, for the billionaires.

Even if you support massive deportation operations, under no circumstances should ANYONE be ok with US citizens being forcibly removed from their homes and detained without explanation. This is a clear violation of their constitutional rights and should universally condemned.

We're now less than 12 hours away from a shutdown and House Republicans aren't even in D.C. House Democrats are ALL here, ready to vote on a bill that protects healthcare & reinforces Congress as a separate but EQUAL branch of government. If Republicans are serious: they know where to find us.

For all of the commenting about the estimated age of the person down by our shameful president, all I can see is - why did he draw such large clavicles? And it's very creepy that the person he drew has no arms, legs, or head.
