So, recently visited and therefore benefits from recency bias, but good GAWD, Baltimore is a giant pile of infected asshole. Port city, balmy climate, proximity to the Captal, has a lot of theoretical potential. Besides what I physically witnessed (the poster child for urban decay and an apparently absentee municipal government), I have heard it is a human trafficking capital as well.







I will stop, drop, and walk away slowly, all while maintaining eye contact.
