Will have to check it out on Monday of next week...don't like crowds.

Yay, they have an opening date for the northwest branch of the #MultnomahCounty library: January 10, 2026. Not sure I'm going there over that weekend; too busy with in-library events.

Multnomah County just sent out an emergency alert to cellphones. I have received their warbling alert o' text.

6th time being summoned for jury duty, 6th time being dismissed before actually, you know, jurying anything.

🤷‍♀️

This time was extra surprising. The _entire_ jury pool was excused without a single name being called, for both today and tomorrow.

Are there really no trials happening in #MultnomahCounty that need jurors?

In a letter to #Homan, who serves as executive associate director of enforcement and removal operations (aka 'Border Czar'), #Wyden said the town hall would allow the administration official to hear directly from #Oregonians about #immigration policy.

"I would certainly welcome your participation at my next #MultnomahCounty town hall, which I am working to schedule next month, so you can hear directly from Oregonians."

Haven’t missed an election since some time in the ‘90s.
