solo mom, Reed College graduate, Sicilian. I am Mother Dick, Odin the Old, alpha gal. Have I said how time turns our lies into truths? Proud Portland, Oregon resident. Punching up, only and always.
Dreams: I was on a date? with some guy who gave me a terrible feeling. We were at an upstairs coffee shop. I was sitting not with him but some grizzled old French dude. When I could see the other guy wasn't around, I went down the stairs outside and climbed this horrible hill to ditch him & go home.
Because they see us as a bunch of chumps. As helpless human wallets. No deal, Council. Do not let them do this to us.
wrightkatuNEW: Internal emails obtained by KATU show Portland Trail Blazers leaders debated whether to respond to the City of Portland's questions on key pieces of a proposed Moda Center deal, with one executive saying the city's requests felt like "a trap”. katu.com/news/investi...
This was the post that said the fire of unknown cause was a reminder to 'crack down on squatters.' She dirty deleted it! Do not forget when the next election rolls around. Our citizens who are the most vulnerable must be HELPED. She wants them punished. Don't let Portland forget.
Councilor Olivia ClarkCentennial Mills has faced a long history of complaints around graffiti, squatting, and permitting. This fire is yet another reminder of our urgent need to take action on vacant buildings.
I'm rereading @tkingfisher.com's Saint of Steel books. They help me relax. The banter is witty and sometimes hilarious, the pronouns are honored, the god is believable, the paladins are intelligent, everyone gets laid who needs laid, the women are believable, the gnoles can smell, what's not to like
it's bad out here. It's thick and yellow and it smells and I'm waiting for PPR to respond to my email about how they're protecting my son's summer camp the next three days.
NickNothing like thick smoke and the yellow-ish haze to take some sanity points away
At the potluck this weekend, the mother of one of the boys my son was playing with told me she wants to name her ChatGPT the same as my son. She then brought it out and talked to it in front of us so we could hear its voice. She was definitely getting something from it. We were politely horrified.
Kate HolzemerAnother thought: in his statement, Hank Green expressed quite a lot of shame about the "dopamine hit" he gets from using AI. As a non-AI user I don't really know what he's referring to here. Is the AI voice flattering him while also doing his job (presumably poorly)? Because that's big weird.
my son got it at school and now has long COVID effects that may last his life. he can't tutor his way out of MCAS or POTS or the random intense headaches. But sure, I've now learned from the most important man in the galaxy that this is what risk looks like: Rory Martin was inconvenienced
Rory MartinNext one might be different, but the lack of risk to kids of going to school should have been taken into account. My dyslexic 12 year old missed the hours learning to write letters and is much further behind than he should be. He learned to read watching gatcha unmonitored so, that's... good?
