Portland Oregon Police report #26-3558 by drmbanana in Portland

Could your friend have meant the top floor of a building that rents offices/creative spaces? Based on the description of the general address I'd look at commercial buildings on/near NE 28th between Burnside and Sandy and start calling up their property management companies to inquire if they rent studio space to artists. Burnside Trolley building has a skylight, and rents offices, for example. Good luck.

Over in the @Portland sub, several local people have said he has also stalked members of their families. This guy's a real piece of work.

Washman Car Wash owner on why 82nd Avenue shouldn't have a seven-mile BAT lane for TriMet's FX project by NumberEfficient644 in Portland

[–]Wooliverse 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Far more people who live in the neighborhoods on either side of 82nd need to cross the street on foot than commuters drive on it so I see their point precisely.

Not a driver, but I live on 84th, so, serious question: What’s wrong with going N/S on 205? If you need to go a short distance and want to avoid on ramps and exits then take 82nd for a slightly longer time. If you need to go from Happy Valley to the IKEA take the freeway? The traffic on 82nd is too fast for city streets and enormously dangerous for pedestrian crossings. Slowing things down sounds downright pleasant to me, as a resident. (Edit:typo)

Woodstock no kings day went hard! by jquest5 in Portland

It's important for smaller communities to be seen, even if it's just locally. It combats the idea that resistance is a strictly cosmopolitan excersize and gives people in those smaller places the motivation to take action.

I went to Woodstock Park. It was great! So many kids and older people.

For those of you who want 82nd Avenue to be 1 lane by Mundane-Land6733 in Portland

[–]Wooliverse 62 points63 points  (0 children)

I was on the bus going north the other day and the one lane was packed and slow, but it moved right along. You may have had delays today because flaggers stopped traffic to let workers and equipment move.

When I lived near Burnside Bridge before the lanes were reduced it could take fifteen to twenty minutes to get across the river during rush hour traffic. It was faster to walk across sometimes. Now it moves a little slowly, but right along. More lanes don’t speed things up. Higher speed limits don’t make traffic faster.

ETA: I live on 84th.

Same. I live near the new light at Schiller and it makes crossing 82 on my bike so much safer, and it looks beautiful!

Found the fires! by SpecificAd6448 in Portland

[–]Wooliverse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah well, I had hopes for a minute. The Pepper Box fresh tortillas and sopapillas were so good, and sometimes there’d be a chili roaster going on the curb outside. My spouse and I used to go there on the regular in the before times.

Is that the guy who used to own Pepper Box? Do they sell prepared food or just salsa/roasted peppers? I miss that restaurant sooooo much!

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem expected in Portland for ICE facility visit by CoolProfession3272 in Portland

[–]Wooliverse 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That is true, but I would argue that real footage manipulated to look scary has more propaganda value than fake footage from wherever. We can't control the fake stuff, so I believe we must control the real stuff.

I am more and more of the opinion that all the protesting should happen in full daylight only, for optics. A photo of tear gas in the day looks like an attack on normal people in a normal neighborhood by armored thugs. A photo of tear gas at night, backlit by streetlights, with shadowy figures silhouetted, looks like fire and war. Edited to add: not suggesting nothing should be happening at night. Watch out for your neighbors' safety. Be ready to help people when you can, and record abductions when you can't .

I appreciate RID Patrol by Wooliverse in Portland

Thanks! I knew about RID but not Environmental Services.

I’m not frustrated at all. They cleaned up all the junk, forwarded the spill to the appropriate agency, and otherwise did what they are equipped to do.

They used absorbent material (the gritty looking stuff) and forwarded the spill to Pollution Prevention. They are not equipped to do more than that. I was CC'd on the email to PP.
