What does Portland have against breakfast sandwiches?
Why they all got maple syrup in them or honey ham? Or sweet bacon jam? It shouldn't be this hard to find *not sweet* sandwiches.
If I had the money, I'd start a takeout café w/ inexpensive tasty savory breakfast sandos & good coffee.

Our leaders do not want everyone to vote, and they work overtime to make it as difficult as possible to do so.
Plus, the electoral college actually chooses the president, not the people. Even if the people vote one way, it still doesn't matter.
The USA is an oligarchy.

OK so I hope this doesn't get me banned, but my most controversial Thanksgiving opinion is that those pilgrims & puritans shoulda been merked as soon as they got off their ships.

The Pilgrims Were Doomsday Cultists
The settlers who arrived in Plymouth were not escaping religious persecution. They left on the Mayflower to establish a theocracy in the Americas.

My husband just told me he was carrying my engagement ring around in his tiny oants pockets for MONTHS before he asked me to marry him.

Why is it so fuuucking difficult to get a burrito without rice in Portland?
I've been here for almost 20 years and there's still rice in my "no rice" burritos! I miss the Sonoran style Mexican food I used to get in Tucson. I miss it so much 😭!

Suppose I'll be making a ton of banana bread next week. Like, enough banana bread to freeze and eat for breakfast for the next six months. Omg 😅.

Because I need to use the bread, you see, and we need food to snack on while we cook tomorrow. I'll assemble it tonight so we can just pop it in the oven tomorrow 😏.
