@hireillo I didn't even know there was a #DragonAppreciationDay ! 😄 I like drawing dragons with unconventional hoards, so here's one who loves to hoard buttons, and another who has a decidedly less savory infatuation. 😅
AnitaB.org, the organization that runs the Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in Computing, is having monthly online meetups for Portland, OR.

I want to make sure you don't miss the opportunity to virtually connect with other AnitaB.org Portland community members on Thursday, 2/8 at 12:00 p.m. PT!
As part of a new monthly series (happening on the second Thursday of each month), we want to invite you to collaborate with others, share ideas and grow your local network. Meet other members, ask questions, and learn how to get more involved in growing the Portland community.
Here's the link [https://458rl1jp.r.us-east-1.awstrack.me/L0/https:%2F%2Fmembership.anitab.org%2Fevents%2FEventDetails.aspx%3Fid=1815674%26group=/2/0100018d14412086-45f47e45-f515-49b7-a8b9-90a5ac693bcb-000000/PEDnVlvYoed6CQ7dztBrAUpfXto=357] to register for this month - and future dates as well! Get this monthly meetup on your calendar and use the opportunity to build meaningful connections.

If you're in East Portland (Oregon), please come out on Friday, January 26, to meet my friend Steph Routh at her campaign kickoff for Portland City Council District 1, East Portland! RSVP here: https://secure.ngpvan.com/DjcIZMsFiEacebOJWPhiqw2
Steph is not running in my district, but I can testify that she has both experience and the right priorities, including improving bike transportation and looking out for Portland's most vulnerable.
Death of friend
@ingalls I have no words. Hugs.
Deleted my Facebook account! (Well, scheduled it for deletion in 30 days, which is as much as they'll give me. I expect Meta will be outside my window with a dozen roses and bottle of fortified wine until then.)
Fire uptime > 48 hours, but if we don't have power by tomorrow morning, we're gonna evacuate before the freezing rain hits. #fire #snowpocalypse #pdxtst #pdx #portland
My Daughter managed to photograph hummingbird bird breath!
it's really cold out and she grabbed the camera because she saw him dancing, flicking his tongue in and out.

1. François Mitterand, Booger Spy.
2. Successful away mission to pick up some more firewood.
3. Finally less than 100,000 customers without power, so PGE has to be inching closer to us.
It’s rarely cold enough here to experiment with frozen bubble photography. This weekend is a great opportunity at 19F. One of my shots out of many :))
I have moved to peterdrake@mstdn.social. If you found peterdrake@qoto.org on a website, please let me know at my new account.
