We’re sick of Seattle.
Constant whining about high rent, traffic, “yellowface”, bike lanes, and “marine layers”.
Not to mention drag queens constantly promoting local make-up companies with nauseating frequency or taking “selfies” every five minutes.
BORING!!!
Also, all the annoying parts of Seafair are happening this weekend which can only mean one thing: We need to get the hell out of Dodge for the weekend!
I suggest y’all go to Portland for the Portland Queer Music Festival, the Pacific Northwest’s ORIGINAL festival showcasing queer artists and performances back for its 4th year courtesy of creator/curator Samuel Thomas. (Check out an interview with him from last month HERE! ) This year there are three days of entertainment starting Thursday, July 31 at Rotture and wrapping up Saturday, August 2nd.
