Meet Peg. She is 2 years old and she’s lived in my apartment for a week. She is sweet, hilarious, and cuddly, but totally out of control πŸ˜‚ Currently shopping for dog trainers, because I’m tired down to my bones 😭

:covid19: By my observations, Multnomah County has finally this week dropped from Substantial to Moderate transmission levels of , which is below the CDC's pre-2022 State Of The Union recommendations for wearing masks in indoor public spaces.

πŸ“‰ 40.6 cases per 100k population this week, and 6% test positivity.

🀞 Let's hope it stays this low, or lower. Many (most!) places still much higher.

Cool.

Just heard from someone in the Bureau of Transportation that their "transportation wallet" program for people living/working in certain neighborhoods will, starting this coming year, only be accessible via a proprietary Android/iOS app, as opposed to submitting a form and getting a physical Hop card as in years past.

Apparently if you don't have or use a smartphone and proprietary software, you're not "good enough" to use public transportation.

Intel's CEO sure is really "sharing the pain" as he cuts his own salary alongside the 5% pay cuts for workers so stockholders can get paid dividends.

He shaved a whopping 0.17% off his 2021 compensation of $178,590,400.00. πŸ™„

The cynicism and inequity is sickening. Intel workers need to rise up.

So the mayor of is calling for relaxing involuntary commitment rules.

I am very supporting of getting people the help they need, and it is long overdue, but I feel pretty sure that (a) his impetus to take action is coming from business donors mis-attributing their sinking profits to the crisis, and (b) that there is still not enough health care capacity for the amount of people in need.
