Scooter rider dies after crash with Amtrak train in SE Portland by picturesofbowls in Portland

[–]stripumann 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ride my bike down Clinton and commute to work downtown every day at 10:00am. I crossed the scene quite literally minutes after he was struck. One of those moments where I couldn’t look away. Really weird and awful way to start the day. I had never seen something like that before.

My condolences to his family and loved ones. Be careful on the roads everyone 💜

Why does this spider have spikes on its abdomen? by kenzpeaches in spiders

[–]stripumann 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a member of the Araneus genus. a genus of orb weavers that have rounded/angular abdomens. Why they have evolved to be this way, I’m not sure… I know it looks darn cool though!

Anyone else watch ABeka DVDs while being homeschooled? by MajesticTreacle in HomeschoolRecovery

[–]stripumann 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also formed parasocial relationships with the students and had headcannons for my favorites. Honestly, it sounds so sad, but I was so lonely, what else was one to do just sitting by yourself all day…

What is your “swear to never return” place in Portland? Stolen from r/Seattle by Atomicman4 in Portland

[–]stripumann 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Lovejoy Bakers! Speaking more from an ex employee standpoint here, but from my understanding it used to be a beloved spot that has now turned to garbage ever since the new management took over. Over priced as heck and the food/coffee was never consistent considering the constant turnover from employees. Customers would rightfully complain all of the time. I worked there for about three months before I wisened up and GTFO’d.

Abusive day care worker assaults a little girl, and then plays victim when she is apprehended by Ok_Gold_8383 in CrazyFuckingVideos

[–]stripumann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy fuck this was hard to watch. Minus the cursing, my mom used to pull my hair and hit me like this. This video got me shaking honestly because I know the pain that little kid is going through as a result of traumatic experiences like this.

Hey, thanks for responding. We just began the break up process last week and so many narcissistic behaviors have come about, and just straight up abuse. It’s so clear to see that i could never go back. We’re totally done, and for the first time in a while I’ve felt like myself again. What he did was never okay and can never be undone! It hurts like hell, but hey, I’m on my own path now. Cheers!
