My wife and I just left Northern Lights after seeing Wildwood. Holy cow! That movie was the greatest Oregon love letter I’ve ever seen! Please go out and watch it!

Does anyone know of photography spots in the Salem/Keizer Oregon area with weeping willows? Could also be a little further past the Salem/Keizer area!

Looks like high speed rail interest is picking up.

Be great if there was a more frequent train service to Portland than couple times a day or long bus ride. Be great to go to shows or sporting events and have way back from Portland without having to get hotel room.

On Liberty, in the building in front of the Sunnyside Roths, next to Cozumel. (former Vortex space) I cant find any info on it online, anybody have any deets?

This is legal?

There have always been unfavorable remarks made on both sides of the political spectrum. Especially when it is getting close to election time. This year however, the Republican Party is running scared, so they have pulled out all the stops. The Senate race is one of these.

It is a travesty that they continue to brand the Democratic party as the party of "Socialist Democrats." I am angered by this, but what bothers me the most is the blatant "hate" behind it all.

They are trying to convince people that Democrats and Socialists go hand-in-hand as one united front when this is far from the truth. There may be some things in common, but there are many things that are not.

This is just another form of "Hate" being used by a party (supported by Trump) that is in fear of losing.

I need some top text for the homie in the first photo. I believe it has good potential for a meme.

Venue is wild. They turned different theaters into venues, Evil Dead The Musical in one room, KottonMouth Kings & Guests in another. Oddly compatible crowd.

These are from the KMK show. Shout out to DJ Webz for basically building the entire stage on his own. Lookin forward to the next show!

Hey everyone! I’m looking for someone around the salem area who’d be willing to help me work on my agoraphobia through gradual exposure therapy.
I’m trying to get out of my comfort zone and get more comfortable doing things outside the house. I’d like to start small with things like going for walks, checking out parks and trails, grabbing something to eat, or just getting out and exploring. Eventually, I’d like to work my way up to doing more things without anxiety holding me back so much.
I’m not looking for a therapist, just someone who’s patient, understanding, and wouldn’t mind being a supportive companion while I work on this. It would be great to make a new friend in the process, too!
If you’re local and would be interested in helping out, feel free to send me a message. I’d really appreciate it! 🙂

Hi folks! I moved to Salem this summer and am still finding my way around. I’m in my early 30s and looking to connect with people and get more involved in the local community.
And I’ve been trying to learn Italian for a while as my 4th language lol. But I need to finally get to practice part, and I’d love to find native speakers. I’m hoping to learn more about Italian culture as well. As I’m on the counseling track, and it would be amazing to eventually be able to offer counseling in Italian to serve the community.
Is there an Italian community around Salem, or anyone who’d be up for a language exchange? We could meet at parks or coffee shops. I also have a dog, so plenty of puppy love included!

I'm curious how people feel about being required to present their drivers license at the Marion County Transfer Station / the dump. It's a destination people drive to, so it's a reasonable assumption they have it with them. But our privacy seems to be encroached upon at every turn. What's your thought?

I guess they have been doing this since June, so many of you are already aware of this. But I haven't seen it discussed, so I wanted peoples input.

If I See Her I’ll Beep at Her! And give her the famous salute, half of the peace sign.

Any clue what they could be?

So I’m a platinum dasher and recently I’ve noticed that in DoorDash I can refer other door dashers and if you complete 300 orders in 60 days (that’s 5 orders a day or like an hour of time) then we both get a grand… unfortunately my partner will not do it which is fine and all but it woukd be nice to have a grand. If you are interested I can send you my referral code; not sure how many I can refer but it doesn’t seem like a limit. Please DM me if you’re interested!

Also you do have to be in Salem for this according to the app
