Significant hail accumulation and most pea size or smaller in NW Portland (23rd/Flanders). Wow! #orwx
Anyone else notice the gap in @AlaskaAir Main Cabin menu? PDX-LAS is 12 miles short of the 775 miles at which the airline caters cheese plates and the little jam sando. Only prepacked snack boxes. I would have gotten the cheese plate tomorrow, but instead I’ll pass.

The complexity is it requires all the parents of a friend group to agree. Once two friends get phones, then it's very easy for everyone else in that group to be left out. The social pressure amongst kids, and therefore among parents, is tremendous.
As an outsider looking in at parenting, this doesn't seem that complicated to me. When your kid asks to buy them a phone, don't? theatlantic.com/technology/a…
Much as I love the Hops, let's all remember the legislature made time for funding a new ballpark, BUT NOT OUR SCHOOLS
BREAKING: New Hillsboro Hops City-Owned Ballpark Fully Funded Thanks to Final $15 Million Approval from Oregon State Legislature

This is such an important factor that is unappreciated by elected officials. Credit card/loan debt drives bank revenue and profit. But it's even harder to get out from under given the continued high costs of groceries and everyday items.
Ice storm warning issued at 9:15am for PDX tomorrow and @AlaskaAir refuses to issue a travel waiver. Making customers pay hundreds of dollars so they don’t get stuck is terrible customer service.
It’s well past time for @pdxteachers and @PPSConnect to find compromise and get back to work. Students and families are suffering incredible harm, but PAT is denying simple economic facts and blocking the path to reopening schools.
Should we pay our teachers more? Yes, of course. We need to fix the state funding model first. #pdxteachers going on strike hurts kids and threatens PPS finances— there’s no bailout coming.

Threads needs a link so that you can notify Twitter followers of your new presence. Some of the people I most want to follow — @garyleff, @WandrMe aren’t there yet, but I’m sure they will be. (I’m @aviopeter over there, but that handle belongs to a different Peter here)
I was thinking about this the other day (late 90s I would grab a water bottle in the HS cafeteria) and how intriguing it is. Lots of cool observations in the comments. Water fountains! Nalgene bottles (had 1 in college)

If you’re on the east coast, welcome to the legions of us who have experienced wildfires and dread them in a new way, even when you’re far from the fire yourself. These first 2 photos are from 2018, a hundred miles from the Camp Fire that destroyed Paradise
So that you can walk outside again, or open your windows for fresh air that won’t be laden with carcinogens. This is our new reality. We’ve known this in the west for at least five years. It is not unique to the west, though.
