At Waterfront Park in Portland Oregon, where there is a protest march planned to happen soon. It’s Tuesday 9/08. #blacklivesmatter   #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
As the march begins, Bella Ciao plays, as has become tradition in Portland. #blacklivesmatter   #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
Officers out in front of the Transit Police Office in downtown Portland. #blacklivesmatter   #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
Police vehicles and officers were, and still are, blocking the Max line. Few protesters and press have moved in front of the line as well. #blacklivesmatter   #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
LRAD announcing not to block the max line. Vastly more police and police equipment are on the tracks. #blacklivesmatter   #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
Right after the announcement, protesters and press clear the tracks, Police do not. #blacklivesmatter   #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
Protesters are moving further away from the tracks, Police still stay put blocking the Max line. #blacklivesmatter   #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
More “riot” police at Davis and Naito. Currently a standoff. #blacklivesmatter   #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
LRAD was just blaring “the street is open to traffic” and now the group is on the move again. #blacklivesmatter   #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
As the crowd is moving away, a few cops charge forward. Unclear why, but they don’t manage to grab anyone. #blacklivesmatter   #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
As the police are blocking the MAX tracks, they command the protesters to get off the tracks or face arrest/use of force. The crowd has already demonstrated the willingness and ability to let the MAX through. Police however have not.
Cops charge further into the street and make arrests. People tackled in the ground. #blacklivesmatter    #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
Police arrest someone in one of the Wall of Moms shirts. She was standing on the sidewalk at the time. #blacklivesmatter    #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
Another arrest as someone filming walks across the street towards a crowd of press. #blacklivesmatter    #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
The crowd marches around the block and chants “Fuck Brent Taylor” to Brent Taylor. Police still blocking the MAX line. Protesters are currently in a parking lot. #blacklivesmatter    #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
Protesters have marched to the Justice Center. #blacklivesmatter    #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
Police declaring the area by the back the Justice Center “closed,” including the sidewalks. #blacklivesmatter    #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
The crowd has moved to the front of the Justice Center and surrounding parks. This area is home to where most of the teargas has been used in Portland. #blacklivesmatter    #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
Sound on! Weirdest LRAD remix I’ve heard.

In actual news, LRAD is telling people to get off the street and stay on the sidewalk. #blacklivesmatter    #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
The crowd has moved yet again, there is now a dance party in front of city hall. #blacklivesmatter    #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
Portland’s most dangerous rioters are at it again!

The people threatening to ruin a perfectly reasonable street dance party. #blacklivesmatter     #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice ImageImage
Portland Police have just “closed” a massive section of downtown to pedestrians. Threatening arrest and teargas. The past hour of protests have been a concert/dance party. No violence at all from protesters tonight. #blacklivesmatter #acab #PortlandProtest #portlandpolice
Right cops have shown up to move the crowd, this has not been declared an unlawful assembly nor a riot. #blacklivesmatter     #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
Police push someone over on Madison and Broadway. #blacklivesmatter     #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
Police charge to arrest famous Portland Protest drummer Tabitha Poppins. She was lawfully crossing the street from sidewalk to sidewalk, past the “closed” zone. #blacklivesmatter     #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
Cops roll out after doing a series of arrests in this non-riot and “lawful assembly.” #blacklivesmatter     #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
Riot van pulls up as the crowd marches back to the Justice Center, and arrests someone flipping the police off. #blacklivesmatter     #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
Officers moving back to their riot van. Again this isn’t a riot and protesters haven’t initiated any violence tonight. #blacklivesmatter     #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
Police charge out to make another series of arrests. #blacklivesmatter      #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
Interesting that Portland Police was actually talking to this “press” member. They rarely talk to press. He was giving police a link to his livestream to watch. #blacklivesmatter      #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
The officer they were speaking to knew their channel by name already. Cops also took one of their business card, which for some reason they gave to me, during an argument about why I thought it was noteable the police were talking to them specifically. Image
As police arrest a houseless person, they begin throwing up on the ground and then cops start pushing press. #blacklivesmatter      #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
The man begins to go into a seizure, folks tell the police to turn off their sirens due to the flashing lights. #blacklivesmatter      #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
The man continues to seize on the sidewalk. #blacklivesmatter      #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice
The ambulance drives off, cops leave soon after. #blacklivesmatter      #protest #pdx #Portland #Oregon #BLM #PortlandProtest #pdxprotest #portlandpolice

My dissection of Lady Ballers is finally out!

In this thread I’ll share some not so fun facts about the movie and screen caps from my pirated copy.
A picture of a basketball in a blonde wig with pink bow and text above in a cursive font that reads ladyballers with the two Ls being a cherry stem
The movie is directed, written, produced, and starring the Daily Wire's CEO Jeremy Boreing as a former high school basketball coach, pictured below with a horrible Tony Stark goatee. picture of jeremy in a locker room with slicked back dark hair and a trimmed goatee.
Matt Walsh plays a woke hippie liberal who has cucked Jeremy Boreing.

Walsh isn't a great actor, black hole of charisma. He can only do deadpan delivery so watching him play a sincere hippie leftist is just uncanny... Jeremy plays the most divorced man, which he pulls off ok.

yard signs that read 'in this house we believe crickets are delicious, silence is violence, speech is also violence, no one is illegal but Europeans coming to America was bad, guns dont kill people white people kill people... also guns kill people, trans rights are human rights, feelings dont care about your facts, pride month is every month, social credit scores matter, in exclusive inclusion, the earth is literally going to burst into flames any day'

People took the streets after marching on the sidewalk. In response the police set up a riot line a few blocks ahead, next to a building with Stop Cop City messages projected on the side. After briefly facing down the police riot line the march moved back onto the sidewalk.
Hundreds of Stop Cop City protesters have arrived at the Atlanta Police Foundation headquarters. A few dozen officers stand in front, some holding AR style rifles. The situation is tense. The people are simply staring down the cops and chanting on the sidewalk. Dozen armored officers stan...Picture of a downtown tower...

At this protest in downtown Atlanta. Around 300 people are currently gathered here holding signs, sharing stories of Tortuguita. I’m mostly recording audio, but will provide some written updates here. Flyer that reads On January...
After a small scuffle with PSL there is now a large march heading north in downtown. Banners at the front that read “They Can’t Kill Us All” and “Trees Give Life, Police Take It.” Lots of “Stop Cop City” chants & “Not One More.” Current chant “If they build it, we will burn it.”
Protesters hit the Atlanta Police Foundation headquarters and a few banks in the area with fireworks and broken windows. Two cop cars had their windows smashed, and then tons of Atlanta police officers arrived from multiple directions. At least a dozen arrests so far.
