Ah, yeah, with the price of real estate in Portland...
...well I don't want to be a Negative Nelly. It's daunting though. I've had a "dream" of opening a bar for a long time.
@cy bars are tough! The unconvential options tend not to be available for bars.
I never went on tour.
I’ve played a handful of out-of-state shows.
I’ve played in a variety of states, but mostly because I’ve moved around too much.
People buy my music, and that feels good!
Sales and plays are down.
I’m not doing as well I used to.
I’m doing better in a lot of ways.
I’m doing worse in a variety of other ways.
Life is good. Life is complicated.

KDE Plasma 6.7 review: still the best Linux Desktop IMO
Good for United Airlines CEO calling for a wealth tax. The lopsided share of resources in America (well the world) is out of control.
I know I’ve accomplished a lot.
But I kind of feel like I failed on a lot of dreams.
But I suppose a lot of us do.

Tonight's Low Quality Ad is for this Tomato Doormat. Contrary to popular belief, a tomato is neither a fruit nor a vegetable. Botanically speaking, it is a doormat.

@jamey I have always prioritized moving quickly, so we worked on opening a physical space as quickly as possible.
Some road blocks and things in 2016 - 2020 really slowed us down (surprisingly, these were all personal road blocks and not global, but whatever)
There are lots of ways to 1) find cheap space. 2) Bootstrap that space into something financially sustainable.
If it would be helpful, I could walk through some of the unconventional ways you can explore that (although I don't know anything about Portland.)
But that's probably cart before horse.

@iftas Apparently this is already being exploited in the wild so if you are unable to patch at this moment it is strongly recommended to shutdown your PHP application until the patch is live.

You're choosing to use quotes to imply something was said that was not said by myself or any in this thread. This is unkind & deceptive - a toxicity unwelcome in my replies.
Again, I'm sure I share others' concern to learn of a synagogue being ransacked by vandals. I believe it happened, & hope it wasn't the result of antisemitism. Awful if so!
But this thread, as you know, is not about that.
Please take a moment to reflect on this, & refrain from tagging me further.
