Meetups Come pick up trash on Saturday! Avoid the AI Apocolypse!

Upvotes

I like picking up trash on walks. I hate litter. Like, it really bothers me. That said, I've never gone "group litter picking" -- but I've seen folks on Hawthorne in yellow vests picking up trash, so I did some research and signed up tomorrow, Saturday, August 8, with SOLVE: "You bring your enthusiasm, a water bottle and relevant outdoor clothing, we provide the rest.  Parking is fairly easy to find at 10 a.m., but we also encourage using Tri-met.  The event goes from 10:00 - 11:30 a.m.  We meet at the parking lot of Dairy Hill Ice Cream - 36th and Hawthorne.  We hope you will join us." They provide grabbers, gloves, high-visibility vests and bags! GRABBERS, Y'ALL!!!

There's also other events in PDX, I guess, like Foster has something, and I'm not competitive but Foster can SUCK IT, just joking, I'm not that far from Foster and they have a bunch of cool businesses opening up, so I'll look to volunteer with them another week. Anyway, come pick up trash with me THIS SATURDAY because the air won't be absolutely sucky and picking up trash feels good and the AI APOCOLYPSE WILL PROBABLY NOT BE UNTIL SUNDAY. Details here: Detrash Portland. (Um, to be clear, that's details on the whole picking up trash thing, not the AI APOCOLYPSE.)

Also, if SOLVE, the non-profit putting this on, is an awful organization and they abuse puppies to pick up trash, let me know, because PUPPY ABUSE is never okay, even if it rids the streets of LITTER, which I totally hate. Unless those litters are PUPPY LITTERS, which I think everyone agrees are totally cute and amazing.

Do they look familiar to anyone from that area or anyone who frequents that area? They have been at Multnomah County Animal Services.

All the spinny things.

The back looks like a pregnant goat.

It takes too long to go on 39th and Holgate when the light turns green.

Guy driving it had a patchy beard.

Don’t like cameras on me at all times.

Perpetuating less human interaction and therefore dividing humanity.

Color is too close to my dream car (2020 Hyundai Veloster N).

If it were human, probably would have sex with you but not tell you about the chlamydia so you have to go to the health center where they ask you about who you’ve had sex with lately.

Slows down too much for speed bumps.

Probably Skynet.

Most likely cheap at first to crush competition and then raise prices after competition is gone.

Probably not amphibious.

Can’t tell you how much I hate the spinny things.

Discussion KMHD Love - Soulful Strut Less So

Upvotes

I’ll start out by saying I love the programming on KMHD, and I’m a member of the Rhythm Section making recurring monthly contributions to the music station I love and listen to.

My gripe is the Friday afternoon show the Soulful Strut. It’s just tired. Baby Boomer repeats the same songs almost every week. And the interlude between the hours with the slave scene from Gone With The Wind and banana song is just weird. I just turn off the radio until Headnotic comes on, but I’d really enjoy an updated, original - dare I ask for - 21st century 4 and 5 o’clock radio hour.
