Neil Goldschmidt's not only merely dead. He's really most sincerely dead.

@ATTHelp I DM'd you folks back in May, still getting these emails . Please stop sending me Colton's personal info. I don't want it. I have called, emailed and DM-ed AT&T repeatedly and it won't stop.

[Courtney Sherwood @CSherwood]

@ATT Please stop emailing me the past-due cell bills of Colten Sherwood. I don't know him. My emails to you get a reply to use online customer service. I can't use online customer svc site w/out logging on, which I can't do w/o an account. I called & cust svc couldn't help

@OPB is pushing pause on our use of Twitter as a platform to tell and share our stories. Why? Read more here: https://t.co/QAp04ZZigq

But there are lots of ways to stay in touch 🧵 1/9

Portland has lost an institution

Will somebody please help me understand why so many balloons and cylinders seem to be floating around in the sky, how long this has been going on, whether it happens everywhere or just North America, and why we are just noticing it now?

I was not able to listen to all of the SOTU because I was working and then making dinner, so I missed some things. Did Biden say anything about climate change?

[Courtney Sherwood @CSherwood]

@scottstoddard This breaks my heart.

Wow, 2022. Pele, Vivienne Westwood, Barbara Walters, Pope Benedict. What a way to wrap up a year.

@seananmcguire We just started posting our cats to YouTube a few days ago! https://t.co/LVahQf160y

@dbphys @CrystalLigori @tiffanycamhi @OPB For years I didn't know if it was Casey Negreiff or Casina Griff sharing the news on OPB's morning broadcasts.

[Courtney Sherwood @CSherwood]

So, is anybody going to heed Multnomah County's very-late-notice warning against gathering with young children and older adults for Thanksgiving this year?

RSV is usually a mild childhood cold, but it is always dangerous for children younger than six months. The virus is spreading rapidly among children this year, and Oregon is using nearly all of its pediatric intensive care beds. https://t.co/zpJ3rnDDQl

I keep seeing Istanbul’s Istiklal Caddesi referred to as “Istiklal Avenue” in English-language media, and it feels about as wrong as it would be to call Broadway “Wide Road.”

I don't understand Mastodon yet, but I'm there now, and I suspect I'll figure out it out sooner or later. https://t.co/jxkNgDXhvW

[Courtney Sherwood @CSherwood]

Also: Taking recommendations for Mastodon servers. I am tentatively thinking about checking that place out.

I'm not super active here, but now I find myself checking my profile nearly every day to see if I still have a blue checkmark next to my name. I wonder when (or if) it will disappear?

@andersem I agree that the lede is amazing though!

[Courtney Sherwood @CSherwood]

@andersem This is not very clear writing. Sunshine Dairy hasn't been empty since 1993. I had a friend who worked there in 2017. The telegram building is another story. The write-up seems to treat both as the same structure, at times, and they are not.

Mike Golub has resigned from OPB's board. Staff and the community made it clear that his presence on our nonprofit, volunteer governance body was not welcome.
