The trapped occupants of the feminist bookstore from Portlandia, who once had the hubris to call themselves its 'owners', try desperately to convey a warning to outsiders: to scare them away from the open jaws of the store, to spare others from the torment they must now endure, eternally.

Charles Foster Kane: (whispered, angrily) Feminist bookstore...from Portlandia.

the idea was, feminist bookstore from Portlandia comes to the nearest man and that man, he'd start poundin' and hollerin' and screamin', and sometimes the feminist bookstore from Portlandia would go away... sometimes it wouldn't go away. Sometimes that feminist bookstore from Portlandia it looks right into ya. Right into your eyes. Y'know the thing about a feminist bookstore from Portlandia it's got... lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll's eyes. When it comes at ya, doesn't seem to be livin'... until it bites ya. And those black eyes roll over white, and then... oh, then you hear that terrible high-pitch screamin', the ocean turns red, and spite of all the poundin' and the hollerin', the feminist bookstore from Portlandia ... rips you to pieces.

I've been to Portland. My cousin told me that there was a bookstore with a big "Don't harass women ever" sign. While harassing women is bad, my cousin said the sign was alienating. Other Portland stories: I got a very nice ice cream and donut, I got 2 zones, one was about a moth costume woman fighting surveillance and the other was this awesome stream of consciousness dream log. There are a ton of restaurants in trailers, and even a hair salon. Portlandia is funny, but I wouldn't know if it's Problematic or not. Here's my joke:

A: knock knock.
B: Who's there?
A: the feminist bookstore from portlandia. Your front door opens directly into the feminist bookstore from portlandia. All other edits are bricked off. You can't get out.

Along the shore the cloud waves break,
The twin suns sink behind the lake,
The shadows lengthen

In Portland.

Strange is the night where black stars rise,
And strange moons circle through the skies,
But stranger still is

Lost Portland.

Songs that the Feminists shall sing,
Where flap the tatters of the PATRIARCHY,
Must die unheard in

Dim Portland.

Song of my soul, my voice is dead,
Die thou, unsung, as tears unshed
Shall dry and die in

Lost Portland.

Did you know that if you spell the phrase "feminist bookstore" on the fridge with fridge magnets the fridge will become a for real feminist bookstore? All your food will become feminist books and if you open the door after closing hours tiny feminists will be having a book club meeting in the crisper.

I tried this to prove it:



This is after only twenty seconds of having the words feminist bookstore on my fridge. That book was some leftover ghost pepper chicken wings before. Also note the box wine (a woman's drink)

I was only able to sleep at night because I believed the horror was confined to a bookstore in Portland. Now I know that it is more of an abstract cosmic force of feminine hatred that can occupy any enclosed space, even those outside of traditionally black neighborhoods. I am afraid.

Feminists, Queers and Allies of The Feminist Bookstore!

You are about to embark upon the Great Crusade, toward which we have striven these many months. The eyes of Portland are upon you. The hopes and prayers of LGBQTIA+ people everywhere, march with you. In company with our brave radical leftists and queer-life friends on other Fronts, you will bring about the destruction of gentrification, the elimination of transmisogyny, and security for queer expression in a safe space.

Your task will not be an easy one. The patriarchy has hostile memes, a callous disregard for safe spaces and Donald Trump. He will fight savagely.

But this is the year 2016! Much has happened since the Bush triumphs of 2000-2008. The LGBQTIA+ alliance have inflicted upon the cishetero great defeats on social media. Our tweet offensive has seriously reduced their strength on Twitter and their capacity to wage war on Tumblr. Our Feminist Bookstores have given us an overwhelming superiority in the rejection of patriarchal capitalist notions of education, employment and marriage, and placed at our disposal great reserves of disability funding. The tide has turned! The free wymy of Portland are marching together to Victory!

I have full confidence in your rejection of privilege, devotion to queer expression and skill in intersectionality. We will accept nothing less than full Victory!

Good luck! And let us all beseech the blessing of people of color upon this great and noble undertaking.

I know not its origins. What I do know is that they are irrelevant. Maybe we did make it up. Maybe our imaginations revealed to us something that was always there, lurking just beyond conscious perception, giving form to something otherwise unknowable. In either case, things take on a life of their own. In time two teenage girls will murder their friend as a sacrifice to the Feminist Bookstore from Portlandia. I see it in my dreams and know that it is inevitable. When I wake I see blood on my hands, and know that I share responsibility, as does everyone posting in this thread. It will come for us all, in time.
