Only $24k to get rid of 3,674 tires (less than 7 bucks a tire), seems like the guy found a pretty good deal.

NIMBY testimony often quotes Joni Mitchell ("they paved paradise and put up a parking lot") in order to oppose efficient infill. Someone should coin a term for that. I came across a real doozy of the genre today.

A few minutes ago a “jet” flew from Corvallis (unusual, it’s a tiny airport) and now it’s one of 2 jets flying low over the ocean. Flightradar24 says one of them is a mig. Is this weird or nah?

Lauren Bis's Facebook page is still completely public and full of juvenile posts from her high school years. This administration has run out of people.

A bunch of friends and acquaintances helped me tell the story of an underground music legend and the greatest holiday album that you've probably never heard. This was a *lot* of fun to put together. Thank you to everybody who contributed. Happy holidays everyone! www.mixcloud.com/freebeef/fre...

Dang, I wonder if Portland even tried to keep Jabari. Solid NBA player and likable guy. Weird that he’d jump on a 2-way. Though he gets to reunite with Watford (another guy whose departure was confusing).

Genuinely curious why Portland dude Marcus McCauley didn't really blow up after his very excellent 2020 album (and music vids) -- and also what he's been up to since. youtube.com/@moodycouch?...

Shameless plug to distract from *waves hands around*: I started a music show on @korcfm.bsky.social, Thurs nights at 7 with an encore Fri nights at midnight. Also going up at mixcloud.com/freebeef. I'm 6 eps in and it has been super fun. Latest one features the guitar magic of @kph.bsky.social!

America needs the return of the functional front porch as a default component of low/medium density residential architecture. www.bloomberg.com/news/feature...

America, ‘Nation of Porches’

The US pavilion at the Venice Architecture Biennale highlights a global idea that found its best expression in American buildings: the porch.

We’re on vacation just south of Jacksonville FL and…are funnel clouds on otherwise placid days a common occurrence ‘round these parts? There are no storms around and it disappeared quickly. Just curious!

Unfortunately @lizzyacker.bsky.social light rail won’t work in Corvallis until the population density doubles, or more.

So tech bros are trying to reframe Culdesac, a car-free neighborhood in Arizona, as a parallel society that helps justify their techno-fascist dismantling of civil society. Wild.

After Green interrupted last night, another Democrat should have done the same thing. And then another, until all of them had to be removed. Delay the speech by a few hours. Or walk out en masse. Anything. Calling Trump an existential threat means nothing if you can’t meet the fucking moment.
