Tech company….pleasant and safe environment. You sound like one of the tech Zionists. Tech companies are not typically safe or pleasant. Not for 15 years at least.
Not to defend Spokane but that was Spokane Valley. If you know the difference that’s all that needs to be said. Still part of the metro but technically not Spokane city proper.
I’ve enjoyed Mark Rober’s videos for a while now. They are fun, touch on accessible topics, and have decent production value. But this recent video isn’t sitting right with me...

I’ve been getting the Willamette Week for awhile now and have really enjoyed the focus on local only news. Curious if folks have other outlets besides the obvious Oregonian they use to get news for state/county/city. I’m just tired of only reading about the major events around the world and country because they are almost...
What are you expecting everyone else to do about this? I mean, we’re all strangers on the internet and you don’t even know if they’re being honest or not. There’s no real relationship here.
“The sports bar at SW 4th and Morrison closed Thursday. Bar officials said the City of Portland gave them no choice but to close after they’ve sought increased security for employees and customers for 4 years. And they said the city is not interested in discussing the problems with them.”
Super mediocre food for prices not worth the end result. I’m ok with this it just sucks that we’ll probably have yet another vacant retail space downtown contributing to the emptiness.
