Thanks to OR Gov. Tina Kotek for pumping the brakes on offshore wind energy development. I live near the grid-connected PacWave South wave energy test facility, which was selected through a robust public outreach process. I have yet to meet a person who opposes it. Oregon State University

Found a piece of glass from a 1960s Like soda bottle this morning on Ona beach on the central Oregon coast. Like was the diet version of 7-Up. I could make out part of the phrase "You like it - it likes you" on the glass. It's rare to find text on beach glass.

My construction partner and I framed out this pole barn shed yesterday. I set the piers and gravel floor last week and designed the shed to match the #Ideabox modular buildings on the site. I'll put the roof on today and side and paint tomorrow. The roof pitch is on the money.

Thanks to the forward-thinking folks Aforementioned Productions for publishing text and audio of my short story Evinrude, way back in 2011. I'm still preoccupied with weightlessness. Time flies. #audiofiction apt.aforementionedproductions.com/2011/01/brian-…

Man, the Truth Social ads and pop ups here on x are butt-ugly. This platform is now seemingly part of 45's lie machine. The Twitter bird is a stinky little dead carcass, alas ... not sure I can abide the hideous smell. I don't want to get any of that putrid shit on me ...

Washoe County Commissioner Jeanne Herman along with fellow moron Nicholas St. Jon are featured in the NY Times today as some of the nation's leading knuckle dragging election deniers. Will my vote be negated for bogus election fraud claims? Washoe County Washoe County

Today is the last day to vote early in Nevada. Do not sit out this election. Cast your vote against witless MAGA fascism today!

Hope to see you on Bluesky soon! bsky.app

Time to make like a tree and leave - see you on Bluesky.

Dear friends, please ditch this shit-hole platform. Give Trump's cabin boy nothing: bsky.app

At the urging of several friends I went over and signed up for Blue Sky social.....pretty good, and works on my lap top for easy typing. daviddoak.bsky.social come on over sign up and follow me and I'll follow back.

I predict X will merge with the lie machine Truth Social within a month. If you are tired of this hideous digital place, take a minute and get a Bluesky account. Leave the illiterate mouth breathers behind.

Glad to see the The Associated Press on Bluesky. I'm hoping to see regular posts there from The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Atlantic, The New Yorker, Harper's Magazine, Pod Save America, New York Yankees. Your readers and fans are on Bluesky.

PS: Never, ever, buy a Tesla product.

Great news. The Guardian's official accounts will no longer post to this platform. Why? Too many dumb-assed conspiracy theories, overt racism, and bias during the last election. theguardian.com/media/2024/nov…

Just stopped by to say, don't walk, run! bsky.app

I'm with Senator Wyden ...

A motorized boat ban has been proposed on the upper Siletz river. I lingered at a couple boat launches and got some passionate responses. I also spoke with the tribe's natural resources director. Sound-rich audio, expanded text and images. #environment klcc.org/environment/20…
