even though I don't bring up seattle per se this is also me figuring out why visiting seattle for a few days felt so bad: it's even less a city that wants to be lived in than portland

the accessibility there (*especially* for public restrooms) was the worst ive ever seen, from what seems to only be in the service of further criminalizing existing in public spaces.
