Landlords be like “it’s an old building” alright then I’ll pay old rent, here’s 20 bucks it’s a fortune

@booleanfitz tagging people is like the social media version of calling them on the phone. just rude!

@booleanfitz tagging people in general is just so aggressive?

This is a bloodborne boss twitter.com/aussiesdointhg…

dudes think they can reduce style to a bunch of rules and inevitably end up dressing like this

just saw a chinese source describe asexuality as ‘those who are immune to the sexual attractiveness of others’ that’s pretty badass

I'm uninstalling this fucking game

judging by what little I can see of this photo, the message is accurate, so why is the photo blurred out? 🤔

well, the baseball season backfired. let's try schools now

I just... keep seeing people on social eating at restaurants, traveling, doing whatever and I’m sitting in my apartment like I’ve hallucinated a pandemic.

Where *is* the soul of Portland? Wrong answers only.

welcome to usa, if you go to work you die, if you don't go to work you die, we're getting rid of books and mail, if you complain about it you get put in the van

It would be unacceptable for U.S. armed forces to be surveilling protests in an American city. I’ve asked the Air Force to explain these flights, including why this plane is circling Portland, what data it is collecting and who approved the mission. theintercept.com/2020/07/23/air…

I am once again asking you to wear a mask.

A literal tear gas tornado in downtown Portland.

Asked my gyno which birth control would NOT make me depressed. She said, “unfortunately there’s just not a lot of data on birth control and its effects on mental health, so I don’t know.”

Remember when they abandoned male birth control research ‘cause it made dudes “moody?”

I guess “Portland mayor gets gassed by Trump” is just a better story than “Portland mayor retreats after gas and then threatens to gas the crowd himself” 🤷🏾‍♂️

This one's titled "Portland protestors winning."

Shields, leafblowers, drums, umbrellas, the most confidence I've seen. The feds retreat and protestors push forward pelting them as they go inside the doors.

They have no fear

Did any of the national outlets mention that his nickname is #TearGasTed? 😷

You're being underpaid by the richest man on the fucking planet and being told the problem is someone out of work getting a couple hundred bucks so they don't literally die twitter.com/QueenSleeze92/…

The idea that Trump is sending unidentifiable federal para military into cities who have not asked for help should terrify every American. Is this a stunt to show “strength” or is it a practice round for Nov when Trump is voted out but refuses to leave?

All of this horseshit continues to be some version of being progressive enough to imagine not owning a car, but being prejudice enough to not want to ride the bus with poor people.

overheard a neighbor on his phone this morning telling his friend not to get a covid test because every single test is contaminated with the intent to give you covid

don’t worry though!

he assured his friend he “has absolutely no incentive to be a conspiracy theorist”

Tonight (July 17) at 7PM I will be at the Justice Center to hold a candlelight vigil to protect Portlanders’ rights to free speech and assembly and call an end to the violence perpetrated against protesters. Thread/

REPUBLICANS: i need an assault rifle in case the government ever tries to take away my rights

*secret military police start kidnapping people in portland*

REPUBLICANS: thank you so much!!!! love you guys!!!!!!

Authoritarian governments, not democratic republics, send unmarked authorities after protesters. These Trump/Barr tactics designed to eliminate any accountability are absolutely unacceptable in America, and must end.

"Trump is looking for a confrontation in Oregon in the hopes of winning political points in Ohio or Iowa," @OregonGovBrown continued.

We've just learned Acting Homeland Security Secretary Wolf has arrived in Portland.

Breaking: The government has agreed to rescind DHS and ICE rules barring international students attending online universities from staying in the U.S., per a hearing this afternoon in Harvard and MIT's lawsuit against the agencies.

Y'all ever seen a deep-sea telescopefish?

Japan’s theme parks have banned screaming on roller coasters because it spreads coronavirus. “Please scream inside your heart.” wsj.com/articles/reope…

The English language is so crazy! I’m working on a list of words with silent K’s:

• One Silent K — “Knot”
• Two Silent K’s — “Knuckle
• Three Silent K’s — “Republican-Led Senate”
• Four Silent K’s — “Knickknack”

my boyfriend trying to be supportive

conservatives b like “we need smaller government” and then want to give police a 7 billion dollar budget for tanks

almost panicked but then realized 3 months ago I received $1,200

There are 34,313 new cases of Covid and 784 more deaths in the United States TODAY alone.

Businesses are being encouraged to reopen so that the government doesn’t have to pay unemployment or PPP (small business payroll support). That’s it. That’s the whole thing.

if a cis person ever says “can I ask you something personal” just say no

can we all collectively agree to piss off the republicans and make “all countries matter” trend on july 4th

Thread on removing your information from online databases, which is useful in many contexts. twitter.com/PopMobPDX/stat…

If you’re still wearing a mask when you go out, please retweet this tweet. I would just like to see how much common sense is still out there.

This is like a whole movie in 7 seconds and I swear I've watched it a 100 times and still love the main characters - who are clearly star crossed lovers... twitter.com/sohbunshu/stat…

@snooterboops @rectus_sa birthday mode for all games where you explode into confetti and balloons

my opinion of gore in video games is that devs shouldn't be forced to watch gore vids to get it looking "right" bc gore in games should be like hl1 where ppl just explode into chunks and like 3 skulls

y'all be like "i would never bully somebody for being autistic!!" & then bully people for being picky eaters & not getting jokes & not understanding sarcasm & being socially awkward & not liking to be touched & fidgeting a lot & having "cringey" interests & having meltdowns &

was anyone else a kid who always followed the rules & would get really mad when other kids broke them & couldnt understand why you had to follow them & they didnt & now ur an adult in a pandemic feeling like the only one who's following rules & it's bringing up Some Shit for you?

The fear that predatory cis men will transition in order to get access to women-only spaces is equivalent to fearing that a bank robber will spend 4 years getting their accounting/business/finance degree just to get that sweet bank access.

NEW: Beginning 6/24, Gov. Kate Brown is requiring masks in indoor public spaces in these counties: Multnomah, Washington, Clackamas, Hood River, Marion, Polk, and Lincoln. #orpol . Multnomah County to move to Phase 1 on Friday.

coming out as nonbinary when your gender presentation is still the same

People with IBS are braver than the NYPD

if you abolish the police then what about crimes. who will commit crimes then

fwiw, literally no one i know is growing more conservative as we get older

I have come to the conclusion that hearing the terms "first wave" and "second wave" has caused some people to believe that they got a summer vacation in between the waves and that's what's happening now. Wear a fucking mask.

I don’t understand how COVID is worse than ever after we’ve tried everything from pretending it’s over to pretending it never happened

Voting by mail should be implemented nationwide.

Pass it on. twitter.com/WhipClyburn/st…

institutional transphobia is not a self-esteem problem

if my doctor can legally deny me healthcare because I’m trans

the problem isn’t that I don’t love & believe in myself enough

the problem is that I can’t get healthcare

stop reassuring me

help us get healthcare

White supremacist: we want to murder you

POC: no

Liberal: alright let's take a vote then

It's only brave to transition because cis people made transitioning incredibly dangerous. Rather than applaud our ability to endure the dangers of transitioning, maybe you should apologize for gleefully making our lives a minefield of injustice.

If you don't quite understand what horror the Trump administration inflicted today on transgender and non-binary people seeking medical care and why we're scared, let me tell you a quick story.

[TW: transphobia, trans death]

(thread)

“Trans men can speak for ourselves, and we’re telling you: We are men. We are not women. We don’t need people who hate and demean us to tell us what’s good for us because they think we’re women and women can’t think for themselves.”

the answer to the virus was to radically reject capitalism and embrace a human-focused new understanding of society and we decided to Literally Die Instead

Nothing has changed in terms of the pandemic. If we shouldn't have been open in mid-March then we shouldn't be opening anything now, literally nothing has changed except that the government doesn't want to send you any more checks and so is just giving up

I am putting all county applications for further reopening on pause for seven days. Think of it as a statewide “yellow light.” Multnomah County will not enter Phase 1 yet and Hood River, Marion, and Polk will not enter Phase 2 yet.
