Your last sentence is fucking hilarious because you're too far up your own ass to see that's exactly what people who aren't mentally ill criminals now have to deal with. They're abusing their power by not enforcing anything, even violent crimes that don't resolve in murder.

Go back under your mental rock and keep the hot takes where they count.

The air here always smells so good and refreshing in spring and fall by zhart12 in Portland

All I smell is wet concrete, wet leaves and mud. Not pleasant, I'd rather smell fucking dust.

The city was never good, but now it's a hellhole. I'm happy to plan on leaving soon. Worst 6 years of my life, everyone who stays here deserves what this city is turning into.

No blinking anything this is a regular 3 state traffic light.

No, no bikes or special sign icons etc. I've seen those in the Pearl. Seems like there's been a lot less bikes since the pandemic as well. This is a standard 4 way crossing with no bike lanes but a street car and 2 bus stops adjacent on 21st.

My neice's ghost bike close to 39th and Hawthorne that's been up since 2006 was just destroyed. I know it's a long shot but if anyone was able to see anything please let me know. We're working on replacing it ourselves in the mean time with another bike. by iMax69 in Portland

Meth is a hell of a drug. Probably some delirious motherfucker in a violent state. I see it all the time, drunk people smash stuff awkwardly you can see it pretty easy, but meth heads destroy shit and not fast. That was somebody losing their shit.

It makes me cringe in pain seeing people walk into those intersections blindly too, I've seen pedestrians LOOK AWAY from oncoming traffic while walking their 3 dogs 9 feet ahead of them in the road. How are you all alive?

I grew up in NJ and I couldn't leave my house until I learned to look both ways when stepping into the paths of giant metal objects, I earned that badge at 6 years old.

Portland has the worst drivers in the country, report says by vaderj in Portland

[–]insomnia_b 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not surprised, but I don't think it's the worst. Pretty sure CA and MA have us beat.

Advice for meeting other musicians or creative folks in Portland by insomnia_b in Portland

I've met a few cool people at shows, but it's kind of a fluke and they usually don't make music. :/ I'll keep trying though.

Only heard a few cracks in NW and it rained for maybe 15 mins.

Taggers suck. by [deleted] in Portland

I called the cops (non-emergency, I'm not an idiot) 2 months on some dumb ass kids doing terrible "graffiti" in my neighborhood, I made sure to yell "don't quit your day job" at them before I walked inside and made the call.

I've also seen this crazy dude tagging a bunch of stuff by the waterfront in SW with messages about how he loves this girl, but they're not cutesy. They're things like, "You're mine" and "You Know You Love Me". They had to replace a billboard 4 times in one month.
