I have not kept up with this but apparently this is part of the Willamette Week's "Give guide" with different prizes given away on different days.
Today, Dec. 26, is "Big Flights Day"

Okay, I was surprised to see that #WillametteWeek chose a stripper amongst their top five recommendations for #Portland mayor, but #LivOsthus is just delightful, and seems very smart and down-to-earth (and with the vest and the beanie, she seems like a Portlandia sketch of what a local stripper would dress like).

[Or second or third, if there’s a candidate you prefer.] Just DON’T rank someone you don’t align with. 🚫 After months spent watching Rene Gonzalez go from flesh-colored to bright red at the slightest whiff of conflict, I can confidently say he 💯 lacks the temperament to be your next mayor. #dontrankrene Everyone else has their strengths and weaknesses. But I believe it’s time for an artist and mom to lead. Someone who puts people FIRST. Alllllll people. 🌈🕊️ ⚡️ STRIPPER MAYOR NOW ⚡️ #vivaforportland".
I'm all here for newspaper stories about random little abandoned buildings for no particular reason at all.
Outrageous, that #WillametteWeek has not retracted their endorsement of #MaxineDexter, even after their own reporting of how she has embraced $2.7 million dollars of #ProGenocide dark money.

I was in #Portland earlier today so I stopped by Bastion Coffee to try their signature jam latte I read about in #WillametteWeek, but it was rather sour and didn’t taste like jam at all 😭 the regular oat latte was sour and watery, too… https://www.wweek.com/drink/2024/05/14/bastion-coffees-jam-latte-is-the-way-to-kick-off-berry-season-in-portland/
But with DesiPDX, Mole Mole, Capitola Coffee, and SO MANY other amazing options all in one place, it’s impossible to have a bad day on Mississippi Ave! ❤️
"The names of six major health care providers and insurers were attached to a letter attempting to redirect the county’s agenda."
This sucks....
The #Oregon #SupremeCourt asked both parties to submit supplemental briefs by Jan. 9 on whether the plaintiffs have standing and to determine what authority the #SecretaryOfState has in the decision, #ToddSprague, a spokesman for the Oregon Judicial Department, confirmed to #WillametteWeek. A decision can be expected anytime after those briefs are filed.
Former President Donald Trump is fighting against a legal effort in Oregon to disqualify him from the state’s 2024 presidential ballot after being barred from two states in the past few weeks.
