Dingo's Sports Pub for East SE Stark

In early September, Dingo’s Sports Pub opened at 8826 SE Stark Street, replacing the Beer Brats & Beats venue with an Australian-style sports bar. Owner Brendan Jones has transformed this space several times since opening in late 2021. This iteration pulls inspiration from his national roots with a light Aussie theme that offers a brighter, quieter sports bar experience. Dingo’s displays four…

PDX: In-person feedback on your comics

PORTLAND, Oregon: Want pro feedback on your comics? My monthly Office Hours session at Books with Pictures (1401 SE Division) is THIS FRIDAY, June 7th.

Bring 6-8 pages of comics storytelling. I'll give you honest feedback based on my 30+ years in comics. What works, what doesn't, how to tweak a panel for clarity or impact, tips for saving labor- the sort of advice your teacher at a comics class might offer.

I'm not there to hire you, or read your pitch, or introduce you to a publisher. I'm there to look at the pages you've drawn.

(I restrict this to comics pages- storytelling- because that's what I know. Scripts, stand-alone illustrations, graphic design, posters? Sorry, those are out of my lane.)

It's fine if you work digitally, but BRING PRINTOUTS if you can. It's a LOT easier to critique work on paper than on screen. I can scribble notes right on your panels, or lay tracing paper on top of them. And we won't have to deal with app glitches, battery problems, or tiny phone screens.

We do this the first Friday of every month, 4-6PM. In-person, not online. Also? It's 100% FREE. No charge. Just bring your portfolio and your love of comic book storytelling. See you this Friday at Books With Pictures, 1401 SE Division.

This organization will use…

About your thread on gun safety regulations: It's always so scary to see how even the smallest, tiniest little baby suggestion to improve things somewhat triggers such an aggressive response from US American gun nuts. There's millions if not billions of us on earth who've never even touched a gun and certainly don't need 300 bullets in our homes. We thankfully don't even have to think about firearms outside of the context of the US.

But every once in a while I'll see an American go "no actually if I'm not allowed to have 100 laying around my home and a garage full of ammo, I will certainly perish", as they send their kids to school on active shooter drill day.

I've got nothing but respect for people like your grandmother. I'm sure it's scary, having to deal with unhinged, antisocial maniacs who you know for sure are stockpiling guns and ammo at home. She sounds like a badass.

thank you so much for this. i sent a screenshot to my gram over text if you don’t mind that! gun violence isn’t the only thing she’s spent a lifetime fighting against — she’s followed in the footsteps of her parents (soldiers and journalists who were investigated by mccarthy for sticking by their morals) and dedicated herself to trying to stand up for what’s right and leave the world in better shape than she found it — but her work for feminism (burning bras and protesting banks for the right to have her own account rather than one co-signed by her father or husband and more), against antisemitism and the parents in an area heavy on skinheads recently managing to ban the holocaust from school curriculum, her work in conservation especially in the colombia plateau and henry’s fork, caring for a sanctuary farm in her retirement, battling for unions and workers rights, picketing corporations trying to pollute the columbia river, advocating for lgbt people even in the 1980’s and the aids crisis, the kids with special needs she and my grandfather fostered, her time as a special ed teacher, and her years spent with the pdx police force working to lower police brutality, improve responses to mental health crises, advocate for women and weed out the bigots have been almost overshadowed by her work towards gun control in recent years. she spends so much time on it i think because of the level of opposition and she even had to stop posting on facebook about it after receiving mailed threats from local gun nuts and skinheads but she still is a member of multiple activist groups and dedicates time to helping with campaigns and speaking out against it.

i feel so ashamed of how other countries must see america largely due to the fact that we send children to school in bulletproof backpacks but keep allowing the gun nuts and nra run the nation and keep us from doing anything to lessen the harm. mass shootings don’t happen elsewhere the way they do here and it’s embarrassing.

my grandmother grew up in a warzone, she saw people killed in front of her, she had my mom as a baby in her arms as they fled a bombing once, and two of her six siblings were held hostage by a drug cartel and tortured, but i believe her when she says the united states right now is in worse shape than spain under francisco franco or cartel-dominated cities in mexico when it comes to violence and shootings.

i know a lot of our legislation is absurd and unhelpful and performative but that’s because of the people who have been manipulated by western films and the nra pushing back against anything helpful. no one needs more than a basic, single shot hunting rifle and a small amount of ammunition. people put their children at risk, themselves at risk and others at risk by so irresponsibly owning guns and ammo. there are plenty of other forms of self defense that aren’t more likely to kill you than the assailant.

too many people seem to believe that if they have guns and a stockpile of ammo they could take on the government (which is laughable), invading forces or whatever other perverse fantasy they seem to have. in reality, having a gun makes you more likely to commit suicide, for a child to get shot, for a domestic conflict to end in death and so on. i don’t trust any government — believe me — but we have a government for the purpose of keeping our society safe and stable and it’s a display of utter narcissism and overconfidence to believe that your “right” to own a gun is worth more than someone else’s right to live.

not to mention that the frequent argument is that gun control won’t stop criminals from getting guns but the same exact people helped overturn roe v. wade to ban abortion under the assumption that it will stop abortions. absolute hypocrisy.

i not only appreciate the breath of fresh air from my favorite mutual and the compliment to my grandmother (she is a badass: she’s a wilderness survivalist, cowgirl and political powerhouse with a backbone of steel) but also the perspective from someone outside of the united states because i think it’s super weird that so many people here are convinced they’ll die without a rocket launcher and basement full of ammo — or that their 2k hours of fortnite have prepared them to fight an organized armed force — while the rest of the world is doing perfectly fine with reasonable gun control.

thank you, my sweet cheese, my rotten soldier, my good time boi 💝💝💝

BEST OF ’22:

SONGS_of_the_YEAR…

//

“UGLY BUG” was a choice cut from DOWNWARD’s terrific EP titled ‘The Brass Tax’ & it found the Tulsa-based trio absolutely killing it while carving out quite the niche with their aesthetically apt & Nu_gazing blend of doomer_Alt meets slow_core meets proper_Emo.

“PHANTOM ENGLISH” was the penultimate track from FASHION CLUB’s fantastic debut LP titled ‘Scrutiny’ & it found the Los Angeles-based project tackling the dread of immersed isolation while making it sound downright delectable over an elegant piece of moody NewWave-infused ArtPop.

“SALAD SEASON” was the opening track from FLATWAVE’S latest LP titled ‘Numbra’ & it found the quartet deploying their 🌊 Phila Garagegaze in full while setting the tone across a 4:15 clip of drowsily soft_grunged, grandly amplified & Mazzy-esque AltRawk.

“AURORA LEAKING” was the lead track from FULL OF HELL’s “tour only” EP titled ‘Aurora Leaking From An Open Wound’ & it found the Rhode Island-based quartet bringing their caustic relentlessness across 2 ½ mins of blistered, blackened & death_metaling GrindCore.

“SOMETHING” was the opening track from HATER’s latest LP titled ‘Sincere’ & it found the Malmö, SE-based quartet setting the scene in devastating fashion by absolutely nailing the sweet spot across a 3:40 clip that beautifully melds swirling gaze & menacing undertones.

“MIRAGE ROCK”was a back-half cut from HELEN’s latest LP titled ‘Somewhere In Nowhere’ & it found the PDX-based quartet bringing the certified goods across a 4:03 clip of gauzy & guitar-driven DreamPop that expertly pulls from just enough swirly ShoeGaze & crunchy AltRock.
