Just got this email from the senator....

I’m hoping there’s something decent available for the area, I’ve been scouring the internet and all I’m coming up with is:...

I pulled this list from somewhere else and was wondering if anyone had any opinions on these, or any additions....

hello Portland folks, I am attending a conference in downtown Portland OR in late October. I’m staying an extra day to get some hiking done. My plan is to go to the airport and rent a cheap car, go to wherever you recommend for some good day hiking, and return to the airport for a late (9 pm) flight out. Any suggestions? any...

I rewatched an old but good video on the war on drugs. And it reminded me, that tlaw enforcement is AT BEST 1 step ahead of some criminals. But that the criminal element is always rapidly adapting, and the best thing we can do against drugs and crime is to focus on the demand side....

I’ve had it for over 20 years. It’s really really heavy, it’s solid oak. It’s antique, I got it for free from a WWII widow who asked me to promise to take care of it and give it the love of my family. I did. It’s got the love of my family imprinted on it....

It’s finally raining!

The pod on 52nd disappeared, but also, the pod that’s a block or two east of the Mercado also shut down. What gives? Hopefully those lots are turned into housing rather than just sit as vacant lots…

Question from someone on the east coast: what impacts are you seeing from the abolition of parking minimums in Portland?

Coming from the east coast, I’m trying to find that perfect Portland coffee bean to make for my morning ritual. What’s your favorite coffee roaster in the metro area? Bonus points if they do a great espresso on site as well!

Hi all, I wanted to let you know about an incident that happened a few days back. An individual requested to become a mod on c/Portland when they thought there was no moderators due to a federation issue. Then, an admin mistakenly made them a mod....

Hi!...

Recently moved here, really struggling with my ADHD and want to see a legit psychiatrist to find the best course of action for me....

Hi all,...

Recently, I asked about u-pick strawberry suggestions and want to give an update. Unfortunately, strawberry season is pretty much over. We went to Columbia Farms on Sauvie Island and we were able to pick a few pints before the rain rolled in. They closed a bit early for the day as a result. We then went to Pumpkin Patch and...

Has anyone else been having trouble with casting the OPB stream lately? In the past, I could say, "hey google, play OPB radio" and it would play on my speakers. Now, it plays the opening ad but then goes silent....

I’m pretty new to Portland still and would like to check out some U-pick farm spots. With so many options, which ones do you recommend? I want to go to Sauvie Island since I’ve never been, but I’m wondering if I should go elsewhere in case the places there are over-picked. I’m specifically looking at Pumpkin Patch, but...

Hi all. Welcome to the Lemmy c/Portland....

Just trying to figure out this whole Lemmy/Jerboa thing. Seems OK so far. Signing in and searching maybe not so intuitive......

TLDR: Outside of the regular circular arguments around housing we have in Portland what are your thoughts on building effective and equitable housing infrastructure for the cities future?...

Saw this trail sign at Tryon Creek when I went on a trillium hike.

We have a very cute rabbit in our yard, but it’s eating our plants and making some messes. I tried to search online and didn’t have luck so I thought I’d try here. Is there any type of program where we can trap and release the rabbit? Preferably, I’d like someone to pick up the rabbit rather than transport it myself....
