Parking is brutal today. I hope Portland can make transit/biking a more attractive option than circling the neighborhood for half an hour and being late to your concert/game/etc

…or we could cut funding for those things πŸ€¦πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

🚴 πŸ† I’m working a concert in NW Portland. We ran out of CDs before the concert started, so I made a 2-mile round trip to the office to get more, and got back RIGHT before intermission! 😊

Reviewing portfolios at @bkswpicspdx.bsky.social today from 4 to 6 (filling in for @stevelieberart.bsky.social.) I'll help you improve. Happy to look at illustration/sequentials and offer suggestions/exercises. I try to make sure people also feel encouraged by pointing out what I think you do well.

(Beartato and Reginald, in a museum, gaze upon the Mona Lisa)

BEARTATO: There it is. The Mona Lisa. The most famous painting in history.
REGINALD: Wow! What's it do?

BEARTATO: It... what?
REGINALD: Why's it famous? What's it do?

(Beartato thinks.)

BEARTATO: I don't know.

REGINALD (to nearly museum employee): Excuse me! Sir? What's it do?

EMPLOYEE: You're the first person to ask! Watch this!

(The employee yanks a pull-string. Mona Lisa's eyes spin around and her mouth opens like a puppet)
MONA LISA: Honk honk! Honk honk!

(Everyone is delighted. This is true art.)

If you can provide $3k checks for the entire middle class of America by taxing 900 people a little more, not only should you do it, but you should take it as a signal that your monetary system is broken
