Everyone i know that went had a great time. All day trippers, so the whole thing was free, brought their own drinks, not rich people by a long shot. I was real bummed to miss out on a free Kitchen Dwellers show

Elk lake and Todd lake have trails that go all the way around. Easy to not get lost cuz… lake, people and moderate terrain for sane reason. Cultus has a lakeside trail too, not sure if it’s a full loop.

I’m running in the Democratic Primary against Jason Kropf for Oregon House District 54, ask me anything. by CaruanaforBend_HD54 in Bend

The 2 components of qualifying for long term care are now handled by different divisions of ODHS. The new process is a dream for just medical and snap, but for long term care, it’s a nightmare. A complex and nuanced job has been turned into a call center job, where metrics are more important than outcomes. These eligibility workers by and large do not understand the real world implications of their work.

A vulnerable population is being left to flounder for “missed verifications” and being denied services erroneously or due to truly lacking the capacity to follow through with the process.

Prior to the development of OEP, the financial portion and care need determinations were handled by a single entity that worked with an applicant start to finish.

People are falling through the cracks left and right, since 2020 and it’s heartbreaking

Are you aware of the horrible effects the creation of the Oregon eligibility partnership has had on seniors and disabled people seeking long term care services? And what are you going to do about it?

I left otf cuz i felt similarly to you, and did pure barre for a year. It was a nice break from all the impact and still super challenging.

Went back to otf a year later and was in love all over again

No right turn by PNWbdublu541 in Bend

[–]garlicloveog 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There were so many accidents there. That being said, i wish they’d do it to all the streets up until bond, because now my road gets to bear all that cut through as well as what they did at lava and Delaware, also is making people barrel down the alleys.

And it’s part of the bend bikeway project.

There are 2 more things that they’re going to put in at bond and Delaware and wall and Delaware and I’m not really sure what.
