So, my lovely missus and I are just loafing around on a quiet Sunday, TV on a nosebleed Samsung+ channel in the background while we compare goofball videos... Then I noticed something: there were approximately 8-10 Kotek commercials an hour. All of them whining about the same thing: how Drazan would somehow kill downs syndrome kids and lynch abortionists. After awhile, it struck me just how pathetic Kotek has gotten...

Multnomah County’s DEI points system prioritized homeless housing by race and national origin. That ends today. Unlawful DEI scoring system gone. Applicants rescored on lawful criteria. Taxpayer dollars based on need — not identity.

...seriously, it's abortion and Orange Man, with a smattering of Oregon Health Plan (one of those commercials is wildly incorrect- the alleged fat chick with the downs syndrome kid would be on Medicare, not Medicaid. Anyway...) Oh, and there was some weak-sauce promise about affordability, as if she wasn't cranking up taxes and making things more expensive here than any red state...

Holy damn! (Ammonia is a popular industrial refrigerant, which is why it was there at Pacific Seafood.)

Public money belongs in public schools. Christine Drazan’s education plan would take that money out of our K-12 system and send it to private schools. That’s not how we support every student, and I’ll keep fighting for the public schools that serve all of Oregon’s kids.

The problem is they’re deeply rooted in most of the institutions. If we’re being honest, Trump is kind of a speed bump and one of a kind. They think they can outlast him and they might be right. Who’s gonna take his place? Where’s the continuity, “defense in depth”???

US DOJ is in Multnomah County this election season. I guess Christmas is coming early! 🎄 They're coming for you, Toby. Hopefully, they are coming for 50 Grand Dan Loomis, too. @DOJFraudDiv investigate Douglas County Oregon while you're at it.

One dealership turned faster oil changes into a $39 upsell. Greg Johnson, General Manager at @MohawkHonda, says customers can pay to jump the service line with a 25-minute guarantee. “I would gladly pay 139 bucks for an oil change if I was in and out in nine minutes.” Daily Dealer live hosted by @samdarc — listen to the full episode here: dealershipguy.com/fixed-ops-… - Thank you to our partner @ZurichNA!

Now people should celebrate. An Indian company exits SSL/TLS business. Your witch-hunt and demand for impossible standards has worked.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Generating private keys with more than 3 digits for a world-trusted root certificate authority are not impossible standards.
