When I was first riding Blue Bitch up from LA circa the Occupy movement I took the chance to head on to Seattle and stay with a friend of my dad’s for a while, my impression was “if I hadn’t first encountered Portland I might settle here”, but since then all the Amazon and the Bay Area tech overflow and I was like “that only decreases the appeal”

That and the Portland pinball scene was in communication with the Seattle scene and the sense (especially from people who went up for tournaments) was “they’re cool but my is cocaine a thing there”.

And since then you hear about The Greater Seattle Polycule, but actually that sounds more in my direction – personal investment aside I primally associate poly with my middle school renn faire and college arts dorm scene as signal of good weirdos – and if Portland is changing hope it ends up cycling to that
