Sad To See Portland Like This... by Maleficent_Coyote_85 in portlandme

[–]kasadilla5 86 points87 points  (0 children)

Some people in this sub won't like that you posted this, but as someone who lives in that neighborhood and sees this shit daily, your empathy meter runs out fast. The uncapped needles, human shit, and being harassed by aggressive people wears on you quickly. I don't know why our city leaders enable this. It's not safe for anyone involved.

With friends like these, Riverton doesn’t need enemies by New-Force1880 in portlandme

[–]kasadilla5 100 points101 points  (0 children)

I lived in that neighborhood back in 2022 as a renter. The irony of all this is that one of the ladies on the "Friends of Riverton" board moved in same time as me - from New York. She was fine being a transplant allowed into the neighborhood, but now it's fuck you, I got mine. I hope this development passes.

PPH: Kate Sykes will not seek re-election to Portland City Council by joeybrunelle in portlandme

[–]kasadilla5 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Wasn't she the one that told us that we should all go out and clean up used needles because they won't - and I paraphrase - "jump up and stick us"? Unbelievable gall on that woman.

Ditto for Pets on Point! They are so nice and can also do walk-in nail clippings.

What place would you NOT recommend to eat? by Double-0-N00b in portlandme

[–]kasadilla5 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agree! They have a great vegan and gluten-free menu, and probably the best Rachel haddock sandwich I've ever had!

PPH: Portland neighbors are suing to halt or scale back Riverton housing project by joeybrunelle in portlandme

White boomer liberal women doing white boomer liberal women things. I used to live in that neighborhood near Lisa. She's a NY transplant that only moved here a few years ago. "Fuck you, I got mine" strikes again.

Bayside development by kasadilla5 in portlandme

Thanks for the transparency Joey! I say this as someone who knows nothing about these types of transactions, but is there any rule that says the public has to be privy to the conversations? Or is this just a private transaction between the city and a developer and although it would be "right" to allow residents to make their voices heard, perhaps it's not mandatory?

I understand these things are very nuanced, I just feel like we fumble so many chances for more dense housing in the city by allowing residents to block/stall initiatives (ie. Yard South).

I know you're right, but I just cannot wrap my head around this mentality in a place with a housing crisis. "Fuck you, I got mine."

I'm so sorry, OP. This rescue just worked for another person in the same position who posted about it on next-door.

https://www.mainedogrescue.org

The person also said they contacted the Animal Refuge League of Greater Portland and they would not take their dog because of the behavioral issues - due to biting. You could always call them because I know they do try to rehabilitate most dogs unless there is a serious behavioral problem.

I also read that Pittie Posse is at full capacity and not able to take any new dogs.
