"The county expects to release updated election results by 6 p.m. Wednesday but does not expect to tabulate results from all of its tens of thousands of unopened ballots until later this week"
I'm pretty mad at you today, Portland. 😡 This city has wholly undeserved reputation for progressive politics. Exhibit A: voting for a fucking Republican for DA. Fuck every one of you reactionary assholes.
I'm so tired of this city. If I wanted to live with a bunch of reactionary assholes, I could live in any other city in this country.
I participated in a workshop by city of #portland to discuss civic use of AI. I contributed a rubric of "assistive" versus "determinative". The first case may be a helpful use (subject to usual concerns about energy, creative rights, bias, etc etc etc). The second case is where things get dangerous. #pdx
''Homeless Portlanders’ conversations about sweeps commonly progress to a particular source of ire: Rapid Response Bio Clean, a private, for-profit hazardous waste removal corporation contracted by the city of #Portland...''
#Amorphis, #DarkTranquillity, and #FiresInTheDistance are going on a North America tour! I've never bought a ticket for a show so fast. 2 legendary #melodeath bands (formed in 1990 and 1989, respectively) and another that is relatively new to the scene, but who has already had a huge impact. "Air Not Meant for Us" from Fires was probably my favorite, most played release of 2023. This will be epic.
#Portland created its so-called inclusionary housing program, requiring low-cost apartments to be mixed in with market rate ones, as an effort to address the city’s inadequate supply of affordable housing
There’s a bike policy ride this Saturday in #Beaverton where you can hear and ask questions about #Biking infrastructure projects to reduce car dependence in the city.
> Hearing you brag about your trip that cost thousands of dollars is classist as fuck. Must be nice to have a disposable income and unlimited time to be a dickhead. You're just a racist asshole annoying other people around the world so you can come back annoy people who have to hear how "spiritually enriching" your time in India was and now you only eat chicken tikka masala
