I finished TMA and was itching for something to listen to next and found myself relistening to first episode of The Black Tapes Podcast knowing damn well I hate the way the entire show ended.

The second I started tho I was completely immersed once again. 😔

from what I’ve observed with like one million spoiler tags blocked theres a very specific way some people draw Glenn where he just kinda looks like wolfwood from Trigun 1998. It’s kinda killing me cos it’s not far off

I made a website!

For those interested in what this Metropolis thing is all about - this shiny site has more of the details. Plus the full Cast & Crew (hint: it's a bunch of the best actors in the Pacific Northwest). Have thoughts about the Squarespace process I'll share separately (might help others looking to make something snazzy), but I'll save those for another post. They do a good job there! See you in Metropolis...

Buy A Book Day

We're always on the lookout for new and interesting books, Fox found this one during their vacation to the North Cascades. It's both a field guide and a poetry collection, how nifty

Episode One: A Conversation

This has been a long time in the making and we are so excited to finally be able to share this with all of you!

[eidolons-eidolons]

oh fuck it's the intro

Once upon a time I was a PRA/PNWS dislike listen unfanblog. Then I deleted my main. Now I'm back and hoping to stick to small fandom and aesthetic blogging for my own damn sanity.

I like good podcasts/audiobooks too. Hoping to expand back into reblogging Wolf 359, Old Gods, TMA, NVP stuff... Hoping for this space to be a quiet main in the wake of a chaotic few years.

I'm Woods, 23, he/him, hiker-bro-adjacent writer and artist from Seattle. terfs can drown

Why does the last episode of The Black Tapes say mid season finale now?? I don’t think it’s always said that?? Is there finally more coming?? Because this ending right now, as we all know, is some fucked up bullshit.

Lace up your hiking boots and join us as we traverse Reese Witherspoon's film adaptation of the bestselling memoir, Wild by Cheryl Strayed. Is the movie actually about Cheryl's hike through the Pacific Crest Trail or is it about her journey through something else?

the P3 series swe state radio dramas do suck (production is fine, they are just pretty shallow and slightly to very regressive) but. i do respect them for being fake true crime radio documentaries. you COULD do something interesting with that

I’m really out here. In 2023. Giggling and swinging my feet at Alex Reagan and Richard Strand’s constant flirting with each other.

Any advice for someone thinking about moving to the Pacific Northwest?

That kinda depends on where you are moving to! Here are the things I've found useful to know about moving to Portland:

I moved from Philly, where people tend to be more kind than nice, and here, people are more nice than kind. What I mean by this is that people in Philly will call you a jagoff while pulling over to change your tire in the rain, while people in Portland will smile while they keep driving. (This isn't universal, but it's real.)

Oregon has no sales tax. You'll pay a bunch of different income taxes in April, though, so make sure you pay attention to your mail in the beginning of the year so you get all your local taxes done.

Locals tend not to use umbrellas much. I tend to not just bc the rain is rarely hard enough to require one. Get a good raincoat.

Portland was one of the first places in the US to be wired for home electricity. Therefore, the grid needs upgrades, and a lot of the big lines are not buried as they are in other places and are vulnerable to ice. Make sure you have good home batteries for when we have ice storms.

Ditto, the streets don't get treated for ice. Make sure you have good boots and YakTrax or similar.

Pedestrians don't fucking look before they step out into the street. If people acted in Philly like they act in PDX, they'd get hit. If you're driving in the PNW, act like every pedestrian is about to do the most foolish thing ever.

Ditto PNW drivers. I'd rather drive to EWR on a Friday at 5 pm than try to cross the Willamette at rush hour.

TriMet still has a lot of room for improvement, but it's a lot better than any other city I've lived in. Get your Hop set up when you get here so you know you have money on it and all, even if you don't ride often, just in case.

The Oregon Zoo membership has an exchange thing where every month there are different local places you get free admission to. Getting a membership is generally less expensive than going twice in a year, and also, there's a bunch of other stuff you can do with that membership.

Choose where you wanna live as the place you're gonna do pretty much everything. Portland is largely set up so you can do everything you need within your neighborhood, which is nice. Pretty much the only time that I leave my neighborhood is when I have to go to a specialist doctor or to hang out with my cousins who live in SW or go to a special event.

Portland has a lot of cool shit you can do in your neighborhood - honestly more than I've seen anyplace else I've lived. There are hiking groups and bike rides and soap box derbies and all kinds of shit. Join local FB groups, look for posters... you'll see 'em.

If you consume weed regularly & qualify for a medical card, get one. The taxes on marijuana add up a lot faster than you think.

Some of the best food in Portland is at the strip clubs. No, I'm not joking. There's a law in PDX that if you serve alcohol, you have to serve Real Food, which has led to bars and clubs competing over how good their food is.

Food cart pods are the shit. Research your local food cart pods. You'll get some of the best food you've ever eaten and can take a huge group of people with different food needs to a local food cart pod and just have everyone go to different carts and get their own shit.

Look into who owns your local weed store. There are good Black-owned stores, and one of the most popular "chains" is/was owned by some deeply shady people who essentially bribed one of our Secretaries of State. So it does matter.

Be nice to the crows. There is a huge huge huge local murder & crows tell other crows if you're an asshole or you're cool.

I'm sure there's more stuff, but that's what I can think of while I'm listening to a podcast and my wife is driving us home.

To combat inflated food prices, Seattle City Council opened a public market on Pike Place in 1907. This iconic location faced demolition several times during the 20th century but now remains as one of the most visited areas of Seattle
