Same. Stop by Ralph's Pretty Good Grocery in Gaston for some jalapeņo poppers on you way towards Lincoln City. I think I'll die in rural Oregon, maybe even during the eclipse.

Drove through McMinnville a few months ago and got real sad when I remembered they forced the Deluxe to shut down. I guess it's going to be a wine bar with upscale vacation rentals above it. Maybe it already is. :(

Also in other Portland police news, things kind of seem like a mess right now

It's kind of amazing how weird it is that Wheeler is so pants-pissingly scared of doing anything that might piss off the cops and their union.

That dude is going to get his kink on whether is cloudy or not though. So are all the people going for the eclipse. You might argue that it being cloudy with smoke would just make them do more stupid poo poo as they realize they just wasted their time and money.

loving and :wom: that would be uhh, pretty intense, not to mention logistically complex. Likely to the point you'll pass out and if you wake back up, you''ll have really done some serious brain damage as well.

Basically you're going to be giving yourself the :catdrugs: version of a Carradine Necktie, that's pretty much suicidally crazy.

Don't do N2O kids, it will make you too stupid to tie your shoes for the rest of the weekend, at best.

This last week Seattle was blanketed in smoke smog and was 90+ degrees, housing prices are insane, and traffic is constantly at gridlock. We are literally LA, don't move here.

I want to find the spot where they had the sign in the 70's that said 'Will the last person to leave Seattle please turn out the lights.' and put up a new sign that says 'Get the gently caress out. - signed, the locals'.

I haven't kept track of the Seatle PD's protest response. Here in portland they see to be solidly in the "pro Nazi" column. Your governor seems to be taking a strong anti-Nazi stance. Is there a chance that police will actually police these guys or is it gonna be them looking the other way while a bunch of antifa kids get beat to death?
