#PDX #portland fam
anyone got a good restaurant rec that checks all the following boxes?
- east side, downtown or inner west (not past the hills)
- nice enough for a date night but not expensive (say, under $40-50/ea without drinks). Doesn't have to be "fancy" at all, in fact laid back with good food is preferred
- I can actually get a rez this weekend
I have some in my pocket but would welcome fresh ideas

did you see that book or any of the essays by Douglas Rushkoff awhile back about the billionaire meeting he attended (as a futurist thinker) where they were discussing things like how to control their security staff post-apocalypse when they're riding it out in New Zealand or wherever? Shock collars were discussed unironically.

she was truly great. She had unbelievable vibe in person. Deeply grounded and calm seeming but with a kind of bright fire under that. I never wanted to bug her for an autograph or anything when I saw her but now I really wish I'd gotten her to sign my copy of her co-translation of the Tao Te Ching.
In my opinion as a lifelong SFF reader she is the single most important figure in the maturation of the genre into its modern, more diverse and wiser form.

once late in a long acid trip some friends and I put the film on - we were into the "melting into every soft surface" stage and it was a favorite for that. This is back in the VHS days. We went into the classic Koyaanisqatsi trance zone and after an infinity had passed we all came to the sudden, psychically shared realization that we were 2/3rds thru our *2nd* viewing - we had watched the whole thing, zoned out during the auto-rewind, and watched it again without realizing

a friend just shared this magnificent post of Steve's. Among his many great qualities was the way he took his Buddhist practice seriously.

this has been dubbed "the Tyson Zone" - when a famous person hits the point where there's no story so crazy you'd dismiss it out of hand. You might not believe it either, but you can't rule it out. Charlie Sheen is a classic Tyson Zone guy. Kanye has crossed into the Zone a few times. But this Kennedy dingbat brings a real lunatic patrician panache to it. I'm not sure he's actually any crazier than standard issue plebeian fuckery but he's def got an extra-sleazy veneer of privilege

this is pretty much the review I've been waiting for. I'm past my early adopter, have fun wrestling with janky tech phase. I'll put one of these in the budget. Thanks for ongoing updates

Interesting to see people moving from "voting against Trump" to "voting for Harris".

damn I love a really, really well made machine. They're so rare now. There's something deeply satisfying about it

thank you so so so so SO much for not punching the color in these pics up to cartoon levels. I see painted hills photos that look like they were drawn in crayon. It's a lovely enough place without that

you can run GrapheneOS on a pixel, which is an interesting alternate OS that's privacy oriented and runs Android apps in a sandbox. I agree with the point you're making, but I'm still considering giving one a shot next time I need a phone.

So obviously it's time to get serious about putting a stake thru the heart of the NYT as it currently exists. Anyone have a clear image of how much of their revenue comes from the lil games they have that are so popular? I know this sounds crazy but y'all might need to give those up at some point, hopefully that isn't too great a sacrifice 🙄

I would love to have met Sir Terry. Seemed like a magnificent fellow.

I think it's safe to say Ursula would have been aghast at that treatment ☹️
I got to meet her in public settings a couple times in her later years and she had the most peaceful but bright eyed vibe I've ever experienced. Hard to describe. Felt like meeting a buddha but more fun. And she took no shit from anyone ever.

(feel like I should caveat that she wasn't the ONLY author involved in that evolution and not even the only important one, but i do think she stands above the others. Just wanted to add that in case another SFF nerd is out there wondering if I've read Chip Delany etc 😁)

the Hainish Cycle novels share a setting but not a plot through-line. The first three are perhaps slightly more related to each other but Darkness can be & usually is read cold. It is widely considered (and i agree) to be one of Ursula's masterpieces and makes a note-perfect introduction to the author.
FWIW, if you enjoy modern humane SFF with its emphasis on the intersection of psychology, relationships & society, UKLG is the key figure in developing that style.
