@jojo_pdx congrats!

@TurboDingus Deleting Twitter was one of the best moves I've made in the past year. Unfortunately the website still exists

[John Penning @johnpenning]

@KFrancisKearns @en_cohen Or the way I did https://t.co/tY8WbUQQEi

@albertren That's *one* house?

[John Penning @johnpenning]

@__apf__ It’s this one, sadly discontinued: https://t.co/8eNgDCgGBm

[John Penning @johnpenning]

@__apf__ I have a steel frame road bike with slightly thicker tires and a rear rack with a pannier bag that I used for my daily commute pre-2020. Disc brakes and full fenders for rainy season too. Granny gear for the steepest hills. Drop bars are probably not necessary, but I like them.

@emilette “Peeing like we pee, that yellow liquid” sounds like free jazz slam poetry for third graders

I’m confused by this logic, @PortlandTram. Several @trimet buses also provide direct access to OHSU, and they’re all open to the public. Why can’t the tram? Was looking forward to riding it with my daughter today - did half of the 4T Trail and was disappointed to see it closed.

[Portland Tram @PortlandTram]

While Oregon will lift mask mandates on March 12, statewide restrictions are still in place for health care settings. Because the Portland Aerial Tram provides direct access to health care settings, it is not open to the general public & masks must still be worn to ride the Tram.

@emilette Lol mine was almost identically harrowing.

@albertren Lol you can roll down the hill from Woodside and end up at a Caltrain station. Y’know, the train that mountain lions use to get to work

@albertren “The turnout for Sunday’s rally was about the same for the Wednesday night showing of ‘Casablanca,’ with the crowd never past the high single digits any one time.”

Maybe SF doesn’t need a giant theater showing the same 10 old movies on repeat… I only ever went for Sketchfest.

@billclerico This is exactly why my dad got us a second dog

@TurboDingus My first one!

@BRHarvie @HamillHimself There are 10x more Trump voters in CA than there are people in WY. Large states are not as politically homogenous as you might think.

[John Penning @johnpenning]

@emilette Do they pronounce it “Nork?” If not, I’m out

[John Penning @johnpenning]

@__apf__ (I am close friends with Jake Tapper)

[John Penning @johnpenning]

@__apf__ Pre-Yellen Adrienne still had orders of magnitude more Twitter followers than most of us; don’t sell yourself short. I find it amusing in a small-world sort of way when non-mutual friends RT you

[John Penning @johnpenning]

@zimboden @BikePortland Yikes, thanks for the heads up. I’m regularly at that intersection, both on bike and on foot with my daughter in her stroller.

[John Penning @johnpenning]

@mikehatzenbeler @NateSilver538 I’ve sitting outside all summer, and it’s been lovely. Unfortunately, where I live, that stops being feasible in a couple months. And spreading out doesn’t easily allow you to meet new people, which is half the point of a bar.

[John Penning @johnpenning]

@AmockingbirdP @mikehatzenbeler @NateSilver538 1) Yes, people are indeed advising against going to bars and other indoor public spaces, even if vaccinated, indefinitely. 2) Because it’s a place to enjoy the company of friends? It was just an example. Sub in restaurant/coffee shop/bowling alley, if you so prefer.
