I remembered this afternoon (aka day 5 of this freezing storm in Portland) that "The Martian" by @andyweirauthor is narrated by Wil Wheaton. And now you have, too.

Portland City Council will be considering the Housing Regulatory Relief package this afternoon, which came before our Planning Commission about two months ago. I am grateful to everyone who took time to submit over 200 pieces of testimony. And that is why it is frustrating... 1/5

Team, I have been involved in community-based transportation, housing, and land use advocacy for over 20 years. I have never seen anything as chaotic as last night's Portland City Council hearing. A dubious award. Here is the @wweek coverage: wweek.com/news/city/2024/01/…

I think many people are moving around just below their breaking point due to all of the pressures of life in a country that doesn’t support residents to have what they need. Add cars a cultural perception that folks traveling in cars have priority in all spaces = dangerous.

Portland Mercado leaders vow to ‘come back stronger’ after today's fire that tore through the building early Wednesday morning. Several fundraising campaigns for Barrio and the Mercado have popped up for those of you who asked how you can help. Click the link for more info on those: oregonlive.com/dining/2024/0…

After spending a few hours with the wonderful @OregonWalks Board this weekend talking about how the nonprofit sector was basically developed by Andrew Carnegie and the 51st Congress at the height of late-19th century robber baronhood to whitewash their legacies...

...I admit to getting saltier than usual this evening while writing a grant for funding to help clean up the environmental mess that a by-definition extractive industry has wrought. SALTY. Very salty.

These are busy days (campaigning is a lot!), and I'm so grateful for the nudge to read a work that invites us to examine the connective tissue of how stories pull on one another. "I used to think our history was something we were walking away from." goodreads.com/en/book/show/7…

3 months ago, we dropped off a petition to expand & #SavePSR to City Hall. Since then, @CommissionerRG who oversees PSR, has canceled 3 times on our group of volunteers including business owners, faith leaders, and service providers. Today we wrote a letter demanding answers.
