Tram bowling!

A little cart with an arrow - the arrow is over marks on the road for different scores. The highest score area is 500

A tram in the distance has shoved the little curling cart

The international tram driving championships are live on YouTube right now! www.youtube.com/embed/smp0vo...

One of the events is "tram curling" where the tram gives a little cart a shove and tries to get it to stop at the right point

Jeff Parker is new to me. Just checked him out. Cool stuff!

I was really looking forward to tonight’s conversation with the Mayor at Bike Happy Hour about making Portland better. Disappointed it didn’t happen. The work ahead is still vital, and I’ll keep showing up for it.

So disappointed in how this evening turned out. Really appreciate you coming and trying to talk about making Portland better for everyone.

Cool, you made it.

@mayorkwilson.bsky.social, aren’t you scheduled to speak at Bike Happy Hour now? We’re here for you.

Our science photo book The Radiant Sea is out Sept 2nd!!
30 years of research, 10 years of "we should", and a year of collating pix and writing.
Sönke and I show (mostly for the first time) images of how organisms produce, use, and interact with light in the sea. #bioluminescence #fluorescence 🦑🧪🌊

Excited to see @joshjohnsoncomedy.bsky.social in Portland tonight!

Agreed. For cheesy space opera, give me The Rise & Fall of Sanctuary Moon. #BoldnessIsAll

Councilor Mitch Green is Portland's socialist transportation champion Socialists are having a moment in Portland. But how might that translate into transportation policy?

"If you’re going to drive a car across town to go to a Timbers game or a venue, you have the means to do so, right? Generally speaking. And you should have to pay some of the cost of the congestion that creates." - Councilor Mitch Green
