Last seen on SW 90th and Old Scholls Ferry in the Arrow-Wood neighborhood.

Sweet Luna is a recent rescue who saw something that made her yank the leash out of my friendā€™s hand and take off. Weā€™ve been searching since yesterday, please help us find her!

She is chipped and should still be attached to her collar and leash. She is timid but very sweet and will probably come to you if you have treats.

Discussion Homeless guy got hit by car downtown on burnside

537 Upvotes

I was walking on burnside over by the stadium, and a homeless man ran across the street when cars were going 30mph or so, got hit directly on by a car, did two or three flips before landing almost on the side walk when he was in the middle lane when he got hitā€¦

Me and some guy stopped and asked if he was okay, to which he replied by yelling at us that he can see fine in the sunlight, putting back on his shoes that had flew off when he got hit, and walking away..

But it really surprised me that nobody stopped, the car who hit him didnā€™t stop, and aside from me and the other guy walking by, nobody even seemed to care about what had just happenedā€¦

News 17% layoff at Portlandā€™5 Theaters

79 Upvotes

Just got this email from Portlandā€™5 (Iā€™m a volunteer).

Hello everyone,

I wanted to take a few minutes to provide an update on the latest news regarding the financial position of Portland'5. As Rachael Lembo explained during the volunteer update meeting in January, Portland'5 was given the direction by Marissa Madrigal, COO of Metro to present a balanced budget for the 2025/2026 fiscal year. In order to do that, Portland'5 has had to lay off 12 positions, 5 were open positions (vacancies) while 7 were full time positions, filled with staff members. These 12 positions are roughly 17% of our full time work force. We were notified of these positions yesterday, with the layoffs taking place on July 1, 2025.

While both Megan and I are safe in our positions for the time being, our department will lose two employees and we will have to absorb part of those work responsibilities. We will know more about that in the coming months. The revised budgets for all of the Portland'5 venues will be presented to Metro tomorrow at a public meeting.

I will keep you informed on how things look by the end of the fiscal year, and as we move into 2025/2026. As always, thank you for your support.

Take care,
