We saw The Beths opening for Alvvays last night and it was amazing.

How is downtown Portland doing? I knew the location as soon as I saw the picture. My wife and I live in BC but got married in Portland and visited a lot in 2010-2014 but haven’t been back since we had a kid. We stayed in a hotel about 2 blocks from that plaza a few times.

It’s slowly but gently coming back to life after being battered to hell in the pandemic!

Well that’s good… I’ve been trying to work on my courage to visit downtown more often… (Just right outside the city!) But I can’t even walk down the street longer than 10 minutes without someone catcalling me or asking me for something. Headphones don’t even do anything anymore. 😭

I live out in Hillsboro, but I have to go into the city all the time for work and social stuff and things. I’m at the Worker’s Tap most Friday nights, at the trans social there. You’re always welcome to come.
