My dad had a dog that got fiercely protective anytime a black person wandered into the business. He swore the dog was racist.

I rescued my dog in Texas, after her previous owner (a 90+ year old woman) died. Brought her to Oregon with me when I moved back. We had a Mexican family next door and our dog would bark angrily at the men, but not the children or women. We are fairly certain she was taught to be racist to brown men. That’s my Texas -> Oregon racist dog story. She then murdered one of my parents chickens.

Congrats in being a force disruptive enough to make Russia notice, I suppose. In other news, I actually expected this to fail hilariously because that's the way these things tend to go, but I'm glad to be wrong: https://twitter.com/shanedkavanaugh/status/988581068277141505

"There was a lot of buzz about that, but that was a lot more fun than this." “Things were way better when we only had to debate the ethics of loving clients, this racism stuff is hard work!”

Diane Gruber sounds completely insufferable Also, the Oregonian hosted an editorial on the ship thing (I know, this will be my last post on it. I don't want to be a broken record) https://twitter.com/Oregonian/status/988508375972532224 and someone in our group put together a video about the commissioning ceremony and the protest https://twitter.com/PortlandDSA/status/988828221037662208

I don't have the best grasp on where they want to divide the state but I looked at state tax distributions by county for 2017. I divided the state on the skamania=west, klickitat=east line and west had 28.4M expenses against 3.8M east.

King County only gets back like 50 cents of every dollar we send to the state for taxes. But those counties out in the east are spending between 2-3$ for every dollar they send to the state.
