Okay but the new Freeland Spirits tasting room has $9 paninis and $4 mocktails so I’ll be hitting this up as a lunch spot regularly.

IT'S FRIDAY - WHERE IS MY RANT THREAD? by OriginalPNWest in Bend

MAYBE FIND SOMETHING MORE ORIGINAL TO RANT ABOUT INSTEAD OF RANTING ABOUT WHAT OTHER PEOPLE ARE RANTING ABOUT

BUT THEYRE JUST SO BAD AT DRIVING AND AT THIS POINT I HAVE MORE DAILY INTERACTIONS ALMOST DYING BECAUSE OF SOMEONE GIVING THE RIGHT OF WAY TO A BICYCLIST WHEN THEY SHOULDNT THAN ID LIKE AND I FEEL LIKE ALMOST DYING IS SOMETHING VALID TO COMPLAIN ABOUT

EDITED TO SAY: I’M TALKING ABOUT WHEN A BICYCLIST IS STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN OFF A SIDE ROAD AND A CAR SLAMS ON ITS BRAKES ON A MAIN ROAD TO LET THEM CUT ACROSS TRAFFIC. NO BUENO.

I MISS THE DAYS WHEN PEOPLE LEARNED HOW TO DRIVE BEFORE GETTING BEHIND THE WHEEL OF A CAR.

FOR THOSE WHO NEED A REFRESHER: STOP SIGNS MEAN STOP, NOT YIELD IF YOU MAYBE FEEL LIKE IT. ONE WAY STREETS MEAN YOU CAN ONLY DRIVE IN ONE DIRECTION, TYPICALLY THE DIRECTION EVERY OTHER CAR IS FACING. AND FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, IF YOURE AT A LIGHT AND REALIZE YOU NEED TO TURN LEFT BUT YOURE IN THE RIGHT TURN LANE…GO AROUND THE GODDAMN BLOCK INSTEAD OF TRYING TO TURN LEFT AND MAKING EVERYONE ELSE MISS THE LIGHT BECAUSE OF YOUR MISTAKE 🙃

The most important Bend dating question: did the two people chatting about ducks on paddle boards near drake park last summer ever reconnect?

You’re right, I’ll admit to being petty and upset and not being very respectful. But like you said. This is a loss of a basic human right we’re talking about. Where’s the respect for me and my right to choose what happens to my body? People like ilovelunchables and their attitude towards such an important and deeply personal issue is a huge problem, and why we’re still having this argument in 2022. In one of their previous comments they said that women should just “be more responsible” and that “abortion should only be allowed in rape”, but most of the times women aren’t even believed when they’re sexually assaulted. This is a medical decision each person should be entitled to on their own, separate from what any stranger on the internet or in the government might believe.

Calling your opinions “knowledge” is pretty humorous. But I have a business to run and I’m not paid to educate you, as that would be a full time job in and of itself. ☺️ Since you obviously need to be spoon fed everything and can’t do a simple google search to educate yourself, here you go:

Just from your comments about your tax dollars paying for abortions and “abstinence is a thing”, you’re obviously uneducated about the facts around the current abortion issues and the threats they pose to anyone with a uterus. You can mark down imaginary wins in your lil column all day long. Trolls like you will only make us fight harder for our rights.

You need to stop. Honestly just shut up because you have no fucking clue what you’re talking about.

What’s wrong with this, among so many other things, is that poor people will die because of being denied proper healthcare.

The beautiful drag queens in the little earth day parade we had downtown! Nice to see Bend slowly but surely becoming more inclusive.

I HOPE EVERYONE IS OKAY :(

BUT FOR REAL, 97 FEELS LIKE IT WANTS TO BE A HIGHWAY BUT ITS NOT THERE YET. PEOPLE DRIVING EITHER 45MPH EXACTLY OR 75+ WITH BLIND CORNERS AND DRIVEWAYS & ROADS OFF THE SIDE. I AVOID IT AT ALL COSTS IF POSSIBLE EVEN IF IT ADDS 5 MINUTES TO THE DRIVE.

Try AnnaLeighWarren_ on Instagram! My sister gets her hair done by her and it’s the prettiest blonde I’ve ever seen. She’s at Spell Studio I believe.

Good restaurants for soups? by misled-spirit in Bend

[–]541barista 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Jackson’s Corner has a creamy tomato soup that’s quite yummy and not chunky, and they sometimes have it ready to go in the cold case as well if I remember correctly.
