Attached: 1 image I’ve been puzzling over why the st johns bridge has such a hold on people and so I got to thinking maybe part of it is that we are used to beautiful, emo things being stolen from the public but the bridge is a beautiful, emo thing …Alaskan Social

Alshiref was out when I first got to his downtown shop so I wandered into Kiriko shop next door which has tons of cool Japanese stuff, a line of re-tooled durable luxury clothing items using older Japanese fabrics, and apparently one custom handkerchief design for tourists honoring their Portland location which (of course) features the St John’s bridge, showing how the bridge often signifies not just love for St. John’s but also for the whole city

I met Mel the artist behind Hello Magnolia printshop (“anti capitalist, paper centric”) at the annual St. John’s art walk a few weeks ago. like me, they enjoy just walking around looking at the bridge and generally feeling creative. I bought their original Polaroid emulsion lift “bridge dyptich” after our chat, which I think captures those vibes pretty well

Taylor Townsend (a Black woman) is a tennis champion. One of the best, I guess.
Her opponent, Jelena Ostapenko, berates her on the court after being bested. She tells Taylor that she has “no class” and “no education.”
Nothing like a little public racism not being called what it is.
Jelena said she “respects all nations of people in the world, for me it doesn't matter where you come from.” Boilerplate “I’m not a racist” statement.

The plight of seasonal workers remains a problem across the agricultural sector, from the exploitation of their visa situation, to substandard housing & bullying/abuse; and the Seasonal Worker Scheme has been extended for another five years with little regard for complaints from visa holders about the position the scheme puts them in.

"Perhaps the most important thing to understand about Trump’s mobster state capitalism is that it isn’t about economic efficiency or stimulating growth, let alone a vision of how the economy works and what it should create. It’s about *power*, pure and simple."
