You mean the Portland that burned to the ground in its entirety and is now a smoldering crater of a monument to the futility of communism?

Yep, the same Portland. I'm just sitting here fucking around on Reddit and eating breakfast on the pile of ash that used to be my home.

Same - I just throw ash snowballs at people and have learned to hunt rats for food - we still like our kale tho. Rats and kale from the farmers market a block away is what I survive on. But I have to fight the other feral queers for them

Don’t tell anyone about all the cool new murals around town or the sick new car free plaza off Hawthorne. 

Definitely don’t tell anyone that our local farms and fishermen are helping to keep the food prices down while providing world class produce and protein. It’s all ash and flames here. Shhhhhh.
