After living here in Dxwdwabs and Muckleshoot territory for four years now, if I could do it all over again, I would probably live in the Central District. There are more families and more need for art, more regular music nights, more black and Latino folks than Northlake, people seem happier more normal around there.

The weird assertion that Mastodon is somehow different than other announcement tools or community organizing channels and you must +only+ post content here you wouldn't post anywhere else is exactly why I dropped off for a while

By that logic, I don't have time to make 'original content' four times in one day when the end result is to tell people that there is a concert, poetry reading, or a gathering of artists in the Pacific Northwest

Has this attitude changed since the or is it still alive?

The Doppler Effect describes changes in frequency of any kind of sound or light wave produced by a moving source with respect to an observer, uh... going past

the reason I delete so many posts is because I'm a mediocre writer but an EXCELLENT editor

Watch Duty kept me super well-informed about #wildfires in California last year. Now it's expanding its coverage — not just to Oregon as I first heard, but throughout the western US.

Highly recommended! https://www.watchduty.org
