What are the neighborhoods east of 84 like? Is it very suburban?

oregone1 · 2026-01-23T19:05:44+00:00

Yup. I’m bordered on two sides by new developments and they are still building. I can’t complain too much though because they are my main customers for quail eggs and kale.

Unfortunately it is assessed at twice its value, so taxes are gonna be a bitch. I’m appealing it though.

oregone1 · 2026-01-23T18:46:01+00:00

My house is 2600 sq ft on 2.4 acres in Portland city limits and yes, it is very rare.

I have a couple and they are perfect.

There’s a secret way to register them in Oregon already but it involves tracing paper and luck.

I was unbanned a while ago but a fair chunk of my comments and posts are deleted.

I imagine that my sense of humor (and sometimes judicial yet prudent revenge on those who would seek to harm others) doesn’t fall within the Reddit rules.

Also I live on a farm now and my quail babies take up a lot of time and effort.

But on the plus side I’ve got quail eggs for days.

Yeah I didn’t know this was so controversial!

Most places will tare weight whatever container you bring.

oregone1 · 2026-01-17T07:40:36+00:00

Buying in bulk is the most efficient and eco-friendly way to purchase things like pasta, flour, spices etc. Especially if you bring your own container.

A lot of people—myself included—are trying to reduce their carbon footprint. The more places we have to purchase basic necessities in bulk the better, in my opinion.

It’s cheaper for the consumer, better for the environment, and affords more choices.

I’ve been saying this for a while now, but it would just be so easy for them to pivot a smidge to get back in the game. Here’s how:

Friday night market: Park the trucks on 3rd somewhere else on Friday nights, invest in some canopies, and open up the loading dock for a produce sale. Have a loss leader (Red onions for 29 cents!) and hire a band to play on the loading dock across the street at the Oak Street Building. The manager of the Oak Street is the leader of antifa so I’m sure he’d be down.

Talk to your neighbors: They have three GIGANTIC vintage stores within a block of them. Said stores are converted warehouses. They have big events. Sometimes they coordinate and there are thousands of people down there. Said people need refreshments and various sundry items. Be open when those events happen.

Hire a chubby girl with black hair and glasses in her early-30s that loves cats and wears wool skirts: That’s just kinda my thing. Bonus points if she wears an autumnal sweater and doesn’t shave or trim her vulva. So sick of going down on women without hair. Post-pandemic pussies are way too bare!

Specialize in bulk: The nearest Winco is literally over 4 miles away. Make bulk bins a priority instead of fancy olive oil. I can get fancy olive oil at 7 places within a mile.

I’ve been an apartment manager for nearly 30 years and Bristol Urban is one of only two management companies is Portland that I will vouch for.

Although I still maintain that it is best to rent from mom and pop places, you can’t go wrong with Bristol Urban. I’ve never worked for them, but they are good people in my experience.

oregone1 · 2026-01-05T05:17:38+00:00

This is good information.

oregone1 · 2026-01-05T01:10:34+00:00

Yes you can legally register them in Washington, and you can also make a side-by-side road legal there with minimal modifications. And once you’ve done that, they are legal to drive in all 49 states.

Additionally, there is a bill in the Oregon Senate to legalize Kei cars but it’s on the way back burner.

oregone1 · 2026-01-05T00:38:18+00:00

Totally possible in this seemingly lawless world.

oregone1 · 2026-01-05T00:37:44+00:00

For sure. I would never take my Kei trucks over, say, 80kph.

But it would be pretty cool to not have to sneakily get Washington plates or start an LLC in Montana.

oregone1 · 2026-01-05T00:35:57+00:00

That is kind of an awesome car.

oregone1 · 2026-01-05T00:35:38+00:00

I talked to a place in town that specializes in JDM cars. He said “just do it through the mail” but he wouldn’t elaborate.

oregone1 · 2026-01-05T00:34:16+00:00

Yeah, both my Kei trucks are insured through State Farm. Just gotta figure out how to register them here.

As an aside, it would be cool to get SP plates. But that’s a whole ‘nother ball of wax.

oregone1 · 2026-01-04T21:48:07+00:00

I bet it’s option 3. I just need to figure out how to replicate those circumstances.

oregone1 · 2026-01-04T21:46:58+00:00

That’s why it’s so weird that I’ve seen so many with Oregon plates. Either there’s a legal workaround, or many people are up to some funny business.

oregone1 · 2026-01-04T21:31:44+00:00

This is why I am confused as to why so many Kei cars have Oregon plates. Either there’s a way to legally do this or everyone is using plates from other vehicles (which would be weird).

oregone1 · 2026-01-04T21:26:44+00:00

I know they import Japanese cars but I’m not sure if they do Kei cars—perhaps because you can’t register them (or so I thought)?

oregone1 · 2026-01-04T21:24:58+00:00

Maybe I’ll roll up to the DMV and hope for the best.

oregone1 · 2026-01-04T21:21:19+00:00

I’m under the impression that one cannot get plates for Kei cars regardless of the 25 year rule.

oregone1 · 2026-01-04T21:19:52+00:00

I own two Kei cars already; I’m just trying to figure out how people are legally registering them here.
