would you believe one of these shocking posts is literally "Taking my mind off of my pure hatred for the Portland police by watching 1989 hit The Wizard, starring Fred Savage and Jenny Lewis on VHS with my wife" lmao
Councilor Mitch Green said he regrets the since-deleted tweets. “That's not how I engage in discourse today,” he said.

man this is a really bleak lineup here outside of TKL/Morillo. I don't think we're getting a third progressive in d3.
More than 20 candidates are vying for three seats in Portland's City Council District 3 this November. We tracked each candidate in the race to find out who they are, why they're running, and who's backing them.
Meet the Candidates For City Council District 3 - Portland Mercury

the regime is able to predict and prevent potholes before they happen, but strategically leaves 4 rotating potholes in every urban center, 3 of which it immediately fills upon being asked so as to test its comms network, and 1 it deliberately neglects to ensure a baseline opposition to the regime.

Portland's new city council system does such a beautiful job of really bringing the city's unique diverge perspectives & voices to the table and it *could* be an opportunity for us to finally have difficult conversations and find common ground but instead we're entering total warfare

realtime logging is a feature that I don't see out-of-the-box in many engines but that I find extremely essential for debugging.
it's been fun this time around to take advantage of Ruby to make it super extensible so I can render arbitrary widgets instead of just text.

0.000% of Communism has been built. Evil child-murdering billionaires still rule the world with a shit-eating grin. All he has managed to do is make himself *sad*. He is starting to suspect Kras Mazov *fucked him over* personally with his socio-economic theory.

The debate over "the working class" just comes down to: liberals want a term to describe a narrow band of who "deserves" support (hence a consistent obsession with means testing), while socialists (like Zohran here) want to to unify the proletariat.
His answer on how you define “working class” gets at something too many pundits and politicians forget: The raw numbers might matter for policy, but for politics, it’s more important to speak to how people *feel* about their ability to afford the life they want.
![It just seems a very easy answer to what is a complicated question. Because politically, if you're saying everyone is the working class, or anyone that gets a salary is the working class, yes, that opens up your tent.
But practically speaking, we are divided by income — and especially if you want to tax people, where you draw those lines matter.
I've drawn it at about a million dollars a year.
So anyone under a million dollars a year in income is working class? [Laughs] That's not what I'm saying. I'm just saying, in terms of fiscal policy, I think a lot of our politics has been a debate over who you leave out. And I'm more interested in debates of how you bring more in. But yes, I do want to raise taxes on people who make more than a million a year.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:awjttox4e3qtfr42ebrmupt4/bafkreicjiukm5hibc3kmlrommkyn4vmanoqttuftcoihgyo63vaah6ng6u)
