PS4-Pro with 20+ games

Submitted By: ryanjpedersen@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
I have a PS4 Pro, 3 first-party wireless controllers, and over 20 games, several of which have never been played or even opened. It’s in great condition, we’ve primarily used the console for streaming service apps, and haven’t gamed much on it at all. All were gifts to us, and we’re just never going to play them.

Asking $350 OBO for everything

Heritage Apple Project
Over the last two years, members and friends of the White Clover Grange have been seeking out heritage apple trees planted by homesteaders in North Tillamook County and spreading their goodness to new local homes! Supported by grants from the Tillamook County Cultural Coalition, scions of these trees have been grafted to new root stock to bear fruit once more.

Q:

Submitted By: genedieken@yahoo.com – Click to email about this post
…where he’s uniting the richest people in the world who’ve ever existed with many working class people?

A: They have all given up on this world. They’ve bought into a kind of apocalyptic fever?”

For me, this has been one of the least understandable pieces of our new extremist age. How can so many disparate people, groups and movements possibly believe they will benefit by signing up for this horror?

Here’s an article by Naomi Klein and Astra Taylor in The Guardian: The Rise of End Times Fascism
www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-interactive/2025/apr/13/end-times-fascism-far-right-trump-musk

The point that made my hair stand on end: Once Trump’s policies fail, the only thing left will be sadism.

Also here’s a link to an interview with Klein on Democracy Now:

Letter Writing Event to Protect Public Forestland – May 14th at KALA in Astoria

Submitted By: agoldshmidt@wildsalmoncenter.org – Click to email about this post
Please join North Coast Communities for Watershed Protection (NCCWP) and the State Forest Coalition on Wednesday, May 14th from 4-6 pm at KALA (1017 Marine Dr, Astoria, OR 97103).

During this gathering, we invite the public to participate in a letter writing event to address concerns about timber sales in our local state forests. We will provide attendees with paper, envelopes, crafting materials, and talking points to help guide letter writing.

Registration requested: forms.gle/iMKNj2aGkSQpuN8T6

Each year, the Oregon Department of Forestry (ODF) drafts an Annual Operations Plan (AOP) that outlines proposed timber sales on public forestland. State forests provide outdoor recreation, education and interpretation opportunities, essential wildlife habitat, and clean water. The money from timber sales also contributes to county revenue. However, there are a growing number of residents within this historically timber-dependent county that are concerned by the amount of clearcutting and related pesticide applications.

On April 18th, the draft AOP for 2026 was submitted to the Board of Forestry, initiating a 45-day public comment period through June 3rd. During this comment period, citizens may offer recommendations. In 2023, the Oregon Department of Forestry only received 29 public comments statewide. After our AOP letter writing event in 2024, more than 1,000 comments were submitted!

ODF is offering several convenient avenues to comment on Annual Operating Plans:

Comments can be emailed to odf.sfcomments@odf.oregon.gov

Comments can also be mailed to ODF Public Affairs, 2600 State St., Salem, OR 97310

Online comments are also received through ODF’s comments page (www.oregon.gov/odf/recreation/pages/comment.aspx)

Comments or questions?

Avi Goldshmidt agoldshmidt@wildsalmoncenter.org

As a matter of necessity and regardless of land ownership, NCCWP demands no more logging and no more pesticide spraying within our drinking-watersheds. Safe drinking water and clean air are part of the public trust that we all are entitled to have. Please help North Coast Communities for Watershed Protection safeguard and restore our drinking watersheds.

healthywatershed.org | www.facebook.com/NCCWATERSHEDPROTECTION

The State Forest Coalition is a group of local and statewide conservation organizations working together to restore healthy mature forests, intact ecosystems, abundant wildlife, robust wild salmon runs and clean water to Oregon’s state forests. We support restoring balanced ecosystem-based management for state forests by advocating for a strong habitat conservation plan and other laws and policies that support these goals.

Vacation Rental Hosts- Turn Your Outlet into an EV Charger

Submitted By: lydia@ecobadlandz.com – Click to email about this post
Are you a vacation rental owner on the Oregon Coast? Here’s an easy way to earn extra passive income while supporting the growing number of EV travelers.

With Ranger EV, you can turn a simple wall outlet, or your existing Level 2 charger, into a Ranger Station that makes it easy to share energy and get reimbursed when guests plug in. No extra hardware, no complex setup, this energy sharing platform is simple to use and similar to Venmo.

Ranger Stations are already popping up around Manzanita, helping local hosts attract more bookings and make the most of what they already have.

climate change

Submitted By: dwieb1@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
In a recent post about digital ‘currency’ there was reference to ‘climate change’ calling it a scam. Most people know it’s not, but lately I’ve encountered a lot more disinformation about climate change. One tactic seems to be acknowledging global warming but then calling climate change a scam, or a belief, or a feeling. It’s not.

Climate change is simply observed and has nothing to do with feelings or beliefs. Historically it changes slowly over thousands of years along driven by global warming or cooling. The problem now is it’s changing rapidly, noticeably affecting life on our planet in just decades and leaving insufficient time to adapt. What we are experiencing is more analogous to dinosaur extinction, except we still have a choice in the outcome.

There’s a good, simple page on the subject at the link below to climate.gov. It was published June 17th, 2015 (pre-Trump). It’s still up there now, but we’ll see for how long since the administration is eliminating what it doesn’t like. If they had any principles they wouldn’t need to silence scientific findings or other points of view.
