Former Israeli occupation soldier now US police officer
Mexican-US native Melina Suarez abruptly left a personal vacation in October 2023 to enlist as a combat search and rescue occupation soldier in the Israeli army during the ongoing genocide in Gaza, according to Roya News.
During her deployment, Suarez spearheaded community fundraising campaigns in Oregon to amass military supplies for fellow occupation troops and drew widespread public attention after appearing in a photograph proudly displaying a prayer bead looted from a destroyed Palestinian home in Gaza.
Following her active military service, Suarez returned to the US and secured employment as a police officer with the Columbia River Inter-Tribal Police Department in Oregon.
“Ya gotta leave some of the product or we won’t have anything left on the floor.” 🍌
But, I filled a cart with rotten produce that I wouldn’t have picked for anyone anyway. They intentionally leave spoiled shit out bc they don’t order enough??
It’s inventory week soon.
“We’ll see how you do,” he’d said at the start. He didn’t even know I was told to be there 💀
The new produce manager
I declined his offer to buy me a drink, on his way to get one. I declined and found boxes to break down 🙄🧠
I checked his file in my brain and remembered our first meeting gave me the ick, and on the second one, he complained about his wife inevitably nagging him if he bought anything from the clearance sweets rack. Wife-bashing jokes are old-dad jokes, and I think I told him, “I don’t blame her”
I had avoided him other than to say a ‘hello’ in passing, for months, and I still don’t remember his fkn name…
“You did a good job!” He said before I left.
I fuckn know
(I do it on purpose).
Dream-Job Manager followed my movements while on my mission to toss the bad shit.
He usually does this job.
“…he’s gonna come by and check it.” Lmao—wut??
First of all, I love how often people snitch on the managers; I was onto that boot-licker.
DJ Boy said nothing to me all day today. He re-checked my work for baddie avocados and tomatoes, and glared at me a couple of times while in-between vacuuming the bins, cart in tow—which i borrowed paper towels from, to mop up the tomato slop with.
The sounds I can’t fkn unhear, of rotten fruit & veg
I am e x h a u s t e d
Also, one lady boomer asked me if we were tossing the avocados and I said, “Yeahh…” She says, “That’s a shame, someone can make guacamole with these”
I wished to say “no bitch, these would produce brown guac and you probably dislike brown” lol
Send me to jail
People who can afford produce are as much or more annoying than the grocery-pickup customers.
FML and peopling outside

In the Great Bear Rainforest, within the ancestral territory of the Kitasoo Xai Xai’s a beautiful melting pot of wildlife and ecosystems collide. It’s a sacred refuge for bears, wolves, cougars (mountain lions) on land, to name a few, and orcas and humpback whales at sea. What a beautiful experience it was to immerse myself in this remote magical realm of wilderness, guided by the keepers of wisdom of land & sea, indigenous communities. Native land stewarded by native people, the way it should be.
This massive black bear, probably the biggest black bear I’ve ever seen, was fishing for salmon, and after many tries, he got one. Pacific salmon is a keystone species that feeds life into the entire region. This bear didn’t eat the salmon in the river, he took it to the forest and, in doing so, fed the soil with very important nutrients. A perfect example of how protecting spawning streams and migration routes and allowing salmon to return and reproduce everywhere they roam in the wild is essential to keeping our planet and all its inhabitants healthy. The critically endangered southern resident orcas further down south are a sad example of what happens when we interfere with salmon routes with dams and overfishing, driving the southern resident orca population to near extinction.
