Bruce Campbell on Death, Dying, and DIYing His New Movie Ernie & Emma I can't be the guy lugging around a chainsaw anymore.

If you haven’t heard about Bruce Campbell’s latest film, it’s likely because he’s been distributing it himself. The Evil Dead star wrote, directed, and stars in Ernie & Emma, a thoughtful, heartwarming story about a man on a quest through grief who finds more than a few laughs along the way. 1/2

BACH is BACK

I’m at a lunch for landlords (yknow, for research) and the speaker is predicting that rents in Portland will start heading up again in 2026 “as new supply remains constrained”

‘A 9-gigawatt problem’: Northwest’s soaring energy demand, supply constraints, could spark new power crisis Data centers are straining electricity supplies even as Oregon tries to switch to renewable power. That’s put the grid’s reliability in doubt.

Oregon had just begun to reap the benefits of leaps in energy efficiency and imagine a future where little or none of its electricity came from fossil fuels.
