I've had this stuck in my head for at least 24 hours now: "The light in the window is a crack in the sky"

The last time I thought fondly of Hulk Hogan, I think I was 12 years old?

@reconbot There was Thunder in Paradise, but there was also Riptide that had a robot ON a boat but no Hogan

@mimir I mean, we're already trying it with silicon, why not try something squishier

"This is the enigma of success in an industry that has no franchise value."

Imagine writing a memo like this and thinking "yup, I nailed it"

@aleen We've owned a home in NE portland since 2019, so I'm not entirely current on rents. My impression is that downtown / NW portland can be 2x the rent of the east side.

East side is more like little almost suburban-like neighborhoods vs downtown's more city-proper, but the city's so small that you can get to downtown via bike or bus in like 15-20 minutes.

@aleen There's a lot of good stuff in Vancouver, WA and Portland's just a hop & a skip if you have a car
