Ten things to like about Oregon
2) Otherwise-insufferable Multnomah county commissioners' pioneering gay-marriage initiative
3) Only state whose tallest building is pink (bet you thought that would be California)
4) 3,399,999 people who aren’t Teh Deb
5) No sales tax
6) Cheaper than California, with milder weather than most places that are cheaper than California
7) Large Slavic immigrant population gives Portland unusual cultural mix (I hear Russian almost as much as Spanish on the bus)
8) Home of Powell's, America’s biggest independent bookstore
9) Home of Video Madness, America’s biggest and weirdest video-rental place — must be seen to be believed
10) Small but stalwart contingent of gerbils right in Teh Deb's backyard

Please be on-topic and read the comments policy. Spam, trolls, and fight-pickers will be deleted. If you don't have a Blogspot account and aren't sure how to comment, please see here. Fair warning: anything supporting transgender ideology, or negative toward Brexit, or in favor of a military draft or compulsory national service, will be deleted. I am not obligated to provide a platform for views I find morally abhorrent.
No comments advocating violence against any specific identifiable individual, even jokingly.
Please be considerate -- no political or politics-tinged comments on non-political posts, and no performative cynicism. Finally, please remember that this is a personal blog whose main purpose is to encourage contact from people with similar interests and world-views to mine. I really don't much care for arguing and debating; if arguing and debating is what you want, there are plenty of other places on the internet which welcome that.
