Oregon couple deported, forced to leave toddler behind https://www.oregonlive.com/news/2025/12/oregon-couple-deported-forced-to-leave-toddler-behind.html
A man died in Yamhill county, Oregon yesterday, driving through flood waters to get to work.
It's easy for me to say, but I want every employer to say it too. Be late if you have to. It's bad out there. Always assume that water is deeper than it looks. It might sound obvious, but most of us have pushed it one time or another. Be safe.

#Seattle is looking for #Comics artists in #Oregon and #WashingtonState to do stories about transit! $54,000 each!!!
A cohort of six artists will be commissioned to create two original short-form graphic novels each, illustrating stories from communities along Metro’s twelve existing and planned RapidRide bus lines (A–K and R).
Thank you to Jackson-Frazier Wetland and those who have worked to conserve it over the years. Without this enormous sponge right outside of town, we'd be in a lot more flood danger from these big rains.
Keep the wetlands you have. If possible, make and restore more. We're going to need them in the next century more than we ever have before.
Not much. Just a sunset.

Black and white really brings out the mood in scenes like this.
