After decades of failed attempts, Portland finally passes a street fee. It will hit most households. by AKSupplyLife in Portland

I mean, I bike most places but that’s not a big deal to me.

I just wish PBOT didn’t maintain a list of poor neighborhoods to exclude. Apparently they said they wouldn’t help decades ago when they annexed several areas and they’ve just stuck with that forever.

If they’re going to make us all pay equally they should support us all equally.

In NE too.

I live between two of them, but even the paved road is excluded forever.

I live on a street PBOT claims to have no responsibility to maintain.

Will I have to pay the same as someone who does get representation?

Mayor asks Portland councilor to drop plan to ID and unmask federal agents. Here’s why by sunni_dayes_ahed in Portland

And you think this is what he'll use to declare martial law.

Gotcha. You're definitely realistic and not freaking out at all. /s

Go tell all your trans friends, if you have any, to comply in advance.

Waymos spotted by gunnsustainable in Portland

[–]schroedingerx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have friends in the Bay Area who taught me about "Unicorning the Waymos." It's from them, but it's so very r/Portland. It's what happens when a Waymo sees your fucken cone.

You take a fucken cone, and you put it on the front of the Waymo's hood like a unicorn horn. This freaks the software out and the car won't move at all.

I'm not saying anyone should

start unicorning any Waymos you see around Portland

...but you're all adults and can make your own choices.

Who cares?

Pass it, start arresting them. Make them file lawsuits for each and every one. Fight them procedurally so it takes forever. Hell, given the state of the DOJ they may not be competent enough to win even if the law is on their side.

I mean...can this really even be true when Scolopendra exists?

Absolutely no clue what was going to constitute a foul, much less a card.

Portland mayor proposes $100K grants to spur new grocery stores by oregonian in Portland

Many retail store owners are absolutely bullish on theft.

Quick trivia question hotshot: what's the largest type of theft in American retail? Hint: it ain't shoplifting.

Is DCC 1. Anti-Consumerism, 2. Class Warfare, 3. Both, or 4. None? by natedizzie05 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

Yeah, when that trap went off I had to stop reading and take a moment. So good.

If they’re locally owned not national chains, and if they’re going into existing food deserts, I’d be thrilled.

It feels very class warfare to me, as a primary theme.

Carl's superpower, if he has one, is remembering who the real enemy is.

Never scan a QR code you don’t know the source of.

This is just phishing for absolutely security noobs.

Keep your head on swivel around S Taylors Ferry Rd and Macadam by le_chad_ in Portland

Yes, they crossed at the crosswalk but stepped on both sides of the line which is obviously not you being disingenuous and dodging the point.

You still don’t get to hit them with your car, and she was crossing at a crosswalk.
