I made a video reporting on #WarRavagedPortland - (The battle for Foodlandia)
I didn't make it all the way downtown, so I stopped at Foodlandia for Samosas and I'm so glad I did.

Today Oregon’s message to Donald Trump was loud and clear: stay out.
I was not going to get political on this account - but other than this guy's tweets (or whatever they're called) there is nothing I've seen or heard that indicates we're at war here in Portland. (I found out last night when I took a break from editing videos & sat down to watch a little YouTube).
The stark contrast between Trump's description of Portland and the reality reported by local officials has raised questions about the true motivation behind the surprise deployment announcement.
Why is Trump sending troops to a ‘war ravaged’ Portland that local officials say doesn’t exist?: 5 takeaways

After using home computers since about 1984 and being on the internet since around 1992, today I learned the computer keyboard has a home key. I have somehow managed to ignore it for over 30 years.
