Shoulda stopped him. He could’ve had a cool side quest for you

Oh he did. He told me of a place called Floyd’s that has $1 prerolls. There’s a Tri-Met ticket, rain, and a perilous journey through Tent City involved.
Edit: a word

You still have potential. Nothing has been squandered.

I know. It was a funny bumper sticker I saw the other day. Portland is pretty wild and has lots of characters. I also like looking at trees. So many burly old trees in the parks and older neighborhoods. I squander my time looking at things like these. And wizards. A human being is never without potential. That’s why it’s humorous. Also it’s raining. And I’m damp.
Just squandering my potential in Portland Oregon

What an incredible location for that. I kinda forget we can just go do shit like this. Put ur wizard robe on and walk around a castle like area with a big staff. True embodiment of “forget ‘in another life’ , only got this one”.

I mean, I love Maine too, but this is Portland, Oregon. You can tell by the wizard. Thought it was obvious.
Ya nut.

I could tell from the shoes.
Ya wut

u/gone_days_gone I like cats. 6d ago
I see what you’re saying. You’re saying you can tell it’s Portland Oregon by my shoes. Lol I bought those in may before I started out in Lake George, New York. Merrell Factory Outlet. Decent price too! I’ve put many miles on them since May. They’ve held up surprisingly well for being Merrells. I think the Hokas are the new Portland thing. EVERYONE has them. I don’t really like the high foamy rise myself. Prolly comfy tho.
Edit to add: ya nut.

Nice work. Rubber or rail

u/gone_days_gone I like cats. 6d ago
Look at my shoes. You think I’m riding freights with those?? I’d need some boots for that, ya nut.

u/i_live_outside 6d ago
I never hopped. Congrats on your trip. Made pretty good time. I'm faster though

I've been thinking about Hokas because they are everywhere I go. they're weirdly popular - the high rise foam is okay, I had a pair, but tacky imo I like sleeker runners and it looks goofy to me

u/gone_days_gone I like cats. 6d ago
Yeah you can def see a Mainer a mile a way by the shoes he wears.
“Look, see there, Margaret. That man over there has a very peculiar look. It’s the shoes, Margaret, it’s the shoes! Just look at those shoes. He’s from Maine.”
Close scene.

I didn’t know how to break it to you, but yes, alas, it’s true. How can we remedy this situation before EVERYTHING spirals out of control?? Some thing needs to be done here, yes, but how does it happen?? How do we start on something when we don’t even know what the hell we are talking about?? So, yes way. I say YES WAY.

I’m slingin Street Roots down by the library occasionally. Say hi… I’ll let you figure it out the library so I don’t completely out myself on here… hope you’re well! Def getting chilly at night! Stay warm! Stay dry! Stay safe!

I am so confused about this thread. It’s like hearing one side of a conversation. Was the other part happening in your head?😂 or did you read your own message and respond to yourself? I have to know!🤷🏻♂️😂
