I feel like you captured Portland beautifully; dirty and industrial on the surface, but filled with veins of beauty, color and artistry if you dig just a little below the surface. Great job!

Definitely the more frustrating version imo.

I was at work when I almost defaulted to the monke stair climb. I had to assure the person behind me I just stumbled and I wasn’t animorphing.

Should we have empathy and allow free speech for anti-intellectuals who are rooted in beliefs that stem from personal fears and prejudices rather than any actual metric?

It’s neat that this doesn’t even have to be a hypothetical. Just take a look at the U.S to see how that’s currently going for us.
