I had the fun of working down in Portland for about a year maybe 15 years ago, thankfully graveyard shift so both going to/from were when traffic was almost non-existent and could go 120 down the highway so could get home faster to get some sleep between 12hr shifts.
Place was a shithole then for sure but it wasn't nearly as blatantly obvious as it is now.
I'm in Portland, but it's because of family obligations. pls no bully. ;_; I just don't want to abandon my mom in her current Biden-adjacent stage of life, but I may have to make a very dark choice between keeping her company at end-of-life and seeking shelter from a coming storm in a safer environment, family ties be damned.
You better not be in Portland or i'm gonna call you a faggot.
I am not in Portland.
Portland is a fucking horror show. Been there a few times and, holy fucking shitsticks.
It's beyond memes. There are literally tents on the fucking freeway.
Don't get me started on Portland.

Man, fifteen years ago I can all but guarantee it would be a paradise compared to how it was even a couple of years ago, much less Current Year.
I hear the eastern part of the state is decent but the population centers are making good governance impossible, hence the Greater Idaho movement.
