Zoo time in Portland.

It’s Rose Vegetable and the Festival Scum Center has opened for another two weeks of unrulyness and fights between the disenfranchised and reserve police officers. On the way home I noticed a huge increase in the odd people downtown. Women with floral wizard robes and huge ornate neckpieces, men with topknots and few teeth.

And it was also first Thursday! Another zoo, in the Pearl, full of pretentious people pretending to look at art.

I just wanted to get out of downtown so I could hide.

Isn’t it supposed to rain during the Rose Vegetable?
