- One common question I get when talking about Cascadia independence is: what places are actually included in #Cascadia? My answer depends on whether we're talking about the bioregion or the movement for political autonomy: www.cascadia-journal.com/what-places-...
- Hanford starts cleanup of highly radioactive mess, judge prohibits ICE from using non-lethal munitions on peaceful protesters, BC faces an austerity budget, and this is Seattle's greatest year in sports. It's your #Cascadia news roundup! www.cascadia-journal.com/cascadia-tod...
- One of the most radical things you can do is switch to open source software on your computer and your phone.
- Every year, I wonder what if anything Democratic leadership in Olympia is doing with their solid majorities other than protecting the status quo. washingtonstatestandard.com/2026/02/03/t...
- This is why the correct term for them is "goons."
- Feds lied about shooting of two immigrants in Portland, WA and OR propose new taxes, BC is halting plan that would make polluters pay for cleanups, and short stories imagine a future eruption of Tahoma. It's your daily news roundup from #Cascadia: www.cascadia-journal.com/cascadia-tod...
- #Cascadia Journal is here for ripping things up root and branch.
- This is not surprising.
- The word is also missing in this article about Ferguson's $3 billion highway and car ferry-focused transportation bill.
- Oh gosh, I forgot to include the link to the article! No mention of transit at all. washingtonstatestandard.com/2025/12/19/w...
- cars and ferries and cars and more cars
- This is cruel, scientifically unsound, and will kill millions worldwide. If there's ever an independent, free #Cascadia, we'll work to ensure that the tax dollars of Oregon and Washington residents support global health initiatives like Gavi's.
- 💉🌍 The US has frozen all funding to Gavi over demands to phase out thimerosal, a vaccine preservative widely considered safe. The move puts hundreds of millions for global immunisation at risk and raises questions about vaccine access. ✍ @kerrycullinan.bsky.social @who.int @gavi.org
- Cascadia Journal previously reported on this effort to disconnect Oregon's income tax from the federal tax code.
