It's fascinating how COVID disrupted social norms in ways you wouldn't have expected. 1/4-1/3 of the dogs we encounter on walks in Portland are unleashed these days, a number that's been steadily increasing over the last 3 years.

@djspinmonkey The test involves dipping a spoon in the (200+ degree) liquid, then running your finger through the liquid on the spoon and seeing how it reacts.
