"How did you become a Deadhead?" "Beginning Aug. 1, NPR Music will publish a week-long list of stories and podcast episodes exploring the legacy and future of the Grateful Dead fandom. And we want to hear from you!" "We want to know: How did you become a fan of the Grateful Dead? Maybe it was a specific album that converted you, or you were transformed by a show you saw. And what would you say to someone who just doesn't understand the band's appeal?" I'm not a Deadhead, myself (at all), but the Upper Willamette Valley is full of them! #Deadhead#Eugene#Corvallis#CottageGrove#Oregon

if you're in #Eugene and have always wanted an old Singer, there's a cute one at Bring (or at least it was there at closing yesterday) #sewing

@elsua54@mastodon.social Agree on that also. I think we do have plenty of people "already there" (in my eyes) and "made it" as far as #software, #tools and having enough #fans, a #tribe, #following etc - But somehow the people-loving side or ironically communication sides are still the vital Tetris piece missing from all these below! #Eugene [#Mastodon], #Dansup [#Loops], #RichardStallman [#GNU] #AralBalkan [#SmallTech] #Jitsi [instant browser chat in 3-clicks] (will update more as I think more)

Hey #Eugene come out July 16th!

#eugene #oregon Federal officials complied with a court order and have removed the fence around the plaza of the old federal building. They have also stepped up ICE detainments and are preparing to snatch effective protestors.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a place I could purchase Ren-Faire-worthy, knee-high, lace-up, brown leather boots with no garish brandings or visible modern-features in the Portland / Salem /Eugene Oregon area? I need to be able to try before buying. I've had bad luck ordering shoes online, and all the shoe stores I see around the area are purely modern stuff. All you cosplayers must be finding footwear somewhere? #AskFedi #Oregon #Portland #Salem #Eugene #PNW #Cosplay #RenFaire

The official local Pride march was canceled by its organizers, but an independent march got organized almost immediately. The community had been through a lot with the police this year and did not want to work as closely with them as they had in recent years. One of several issues: Bodycam footage outing the deeply misogynistic & racist attitudes of a seven-year veteran. Many calls for Chief Skinner to resign, but the city does not seem to be listening. https://lookouteugene-springfield.com/story/arts-culture/2026/06/27/at-pride-replacement-rally-and-march-queer-activists-call-for-eugene-police-chiefs-resignation/ #pride #Eugene

Here's a shout out to all the people on the Eastern Seaboard that yes, #Eugene #Oregon in the #PNW can get walloped with snow at times. This shot from #1969 came up on my FB feed. #ORWX

You want Big Hospital drama? We got it here in #Eugene. The suits at our big hospital, Peacehealth Sacred Heart, has decided to gut their Emergency Department, and has subcontracted the staffing of 45 Physicians to some third-party group in Atlanta. Apparently the current ER docs are bailing, and the staff held an "All-Hands" meeting this past week, and gave a 100% unanimous vote of "No Confidence" to the management there. I sometimes wish the suits would just stay out at the Country Club.

I dropped my 17YO granddaughter off at the #Eugene #Amtrak station today for her to return home. When her train rolled in, I was distressed to see such a ragged out, worn, dented, greasy, poor excuse for a train. All the cars and both engines (pusher and puller) looked like they had not been washed since 1983. Having ridden the Frecciarossa fast trains in Italy (300 Km/h) and several sparkling and fast German and French trains, I was embarrassed by the #train the U.S. of A has to offer.

DHS officers have illegally fired tear gas at civilians in two Oregon cities in the past two days. In Portland, they fired into a cornered peaceful crowd with many children. Abolish ICE is rapidly becoming the compromise position. I want prosecutions and impeachments. #oregon #portland #eugene
