  • Oregon, PDX: I’ve noticed a lot of businesses and restaurants closing and a ton more overdoses and emergency vehicles downtown.

    My job specifically relies on business to business interactions and NOBODY wants to be downtown. It’s to the point Ted Wheeler (mayor) is now pleading for people to go back to the office because the commercial realastate bubble is on the verge of hitting and business owners know it.

    We are blindly waking around hoping things go back to the way they were and I see so many delusional takes and wonder where we are going to be next year as a city.


  • It’s honestly what makes conservatives hate people on the left. The smugness that leads people to run back to their tribe and never having the ability to reaccess a believe because the second you do you have people like the poster above ready to do a victory lap and not accept someone that was able to get out of a circular thinking loop.

    It’s on both sides. I’ve had to look at specific believes that in practice didn’t pan out the way I thought and if mentioned it to my friends group they would call me a far right shill or whatever bullshit term is being used right now.

    There is little room for nuance and having a conversation that’s not surface level black and white opens you up for slander at times.
