Photos, words and — sigh — podcasting for @dhnews. Several degrees to pay off. No endorsements!

Check out this cool comic by @JackCompere exploring the constitutional right to a night's sleep!

A toothsome look at the beaver-human interface.

[Penny Rosenberg, legacy @PennySRosenberg]

I love this story so much!!!! By @OregonAlex (why doesn't that CUTE beaver photo show, ergh!).

Go, beavers, go! (and @BeaverAthletics )

At one Corvallis park, workers clear a dam by day; beavers return at night (https://t.co/vGS3y5duW7)

I appreciate that my note-taking app insists on writing ex-latte contact, referring to officials’ influence in quasi-judicial processes.

The food was so good

Look for the growing list of Lee employees in this retweet

[Axios @axios]

Lee Enterprises is telling some employees that they will need to take a two-week, unpaid furlough or accept a salary reduction, according to an internal memo obtained by Axios. https://t.co/fukvHmKGS0

Yeah? Sure — I hear you. Mhm. But maybe you also have some really *small* deals you want to talk about?

[K. Alex Powers @OregonAlex]

Wow this Albert Art person really is taking a beating on social media

happy 2-year anniversary to the best/worst pandemic public health conference ever

I hoped this @EugWklyCamilla retrospective would get into the legacy of field burning in the mid-Willamette Valley. It did not disappoint.

[Camilla Mortensen @EugWklyCamilla]

@PennySRosenberg @dhnews @kylierosegraham @OregonAlex @maddiepfeifer_ I interviewed one of the family members some years ago and that burned into my mind. Also the book about it was so odd and gripping. Thanks for all your coverage of this disaster! https://t.co/aXl9X8wbID

May end up the largest multiple-vehicle crash in Oregon history (up there, anyway). Still ongoing. The @dhnews is working HARD

Three weighty letters, nearly two years and a narrowly avoided First Amendment case later, a municipal court throws out charges from the 2020 arrest of a reporter, SPJ Oregon boardperson and now-OPB editor who was doing her job.

Them: Oregon’s pretty progressive, huh?

The aquatics center employees are telling knock-knock jokes.

[K. Alex Powers @OregonAlex]

@rachelwalexande I’m open to any eggplant/jackfruit/soy/whatever knockoff that will help me experience this

[K. Alex Powers @OregonAlex]

The radio scanners are always working in the newsroom, but I’m trying to read five years of DEQ documents and someone at a local aquatics center is doing their worst to a cappella the Jeopardy theme song and now I’m here tweeting instead of taking notes when is my deadline why t-

The joys of being an audio producer, finding random archival tape that makes you giggle.

Bad look for the high school from Twilight.

The incident ended in arrests, including one on suspicion of threatening to shoot LGBTQ+ supporters.

[K. Alex Powers @OregonAlex]

The Democrat-Herald held active shooter training the other day. Aubrey’s story was on my mind after Albany police in a run, hide, fight workshop established Oregon’s arc of of recent mass killings with the Thurston murders.

24 years ago today, a someone made a deliberate@decision that changed my life. I’ve let that decision influence this day year after year. Today, I deliberately chose to spend it w/people I love. Unlike 24 years ago, the impact of this day hasn’t been felt. #Thurstonstrong
