A lot more people would be sympathetic to the “YIMBY” cause if any of them had slightly good taste

Just having my daily thoughts about how there are adult men, who just watched the Knicks win the NBA Finals, who think that an NBA team's owner has any relation to results on the court.
What's the over/under on how many Blazer games Tom Dundon attends in his first season owning the team?
Your friends that “go hiking” (who may otherwise seem normal) are doing disturbing things with cold hot dogs, cans of tuna, and tortillas.
I support vaping, not because I personally enjoy it. Anything that furthers the cause of smoking indoors, even if artificial at first, is GOOD for the movement. Preparing the people, massaging the masses, for an inevitable future of ripping darts with the windows up. Real change comes in increments.
Went to the criterion closet and inexplicably pulled the complete works of Tom Green
Peacock Tour de France broadcast is so ass. The second Mateo Jorgenson throws an attack at the front of the race on the final climb they cut to the peloton doing nothing 6 minutes back.
Blazers fans saying "give Tom Dundon a chance, look what he did for the Hurricanes" probably also thought that Caesar won all those gladiator fights
I'm not sure granting anonymity to let the Blazers management have better bargaining positions is really in line with best journalism practices.
The team official’s rebuke could be seen as an effort to push city leaders forward on the existing proposal. https://mrf.lu/2TgrB

Watching a doomed Richard Carapaz breakaway is pure joy
Between the Tadej Pogacar masterclass over Paul Sexias 🚴 -> Portland Fire (and Carla Leite) looking bad against the Connecticut Sun 🔥 🏀 -> 🇫🇷 vs 🇪🇸 World Cup semis ⚽️ this could be the perfect run of French people losing on Bastille Day

For all the “Ja is a cancer” fanatics out there. Where was the outrage when a buns ass White guy posted this stuff literally all the time?
*They paved a parking lot, and put up a mixed-use commercial development*
At the Portland City Council's Lloyd Center hearing, a person requests to go over time, goes about 20 seconds over time before mic is cut off, stands up and starts signing "Big Yellow Taxi," is escorted by security from council chambers.
One of the oddest parts of the whole Moda Renovation saga is that Dundon hasn't outlined what the $600mil renovation will even do. Obviously a blank check to an out of state billionaire would be unpopular, it's ownerships job to explain how this helps Portland fans. What needs to be renovated???
Trail Blazers owner Tom Dundon has no interest in putting money toward the Moda Center’s expected $600 million makeover. At the annual meeting of the Portland Metro Chamber, he said keeping the NBA franchise in Portland was enough of a financial sacrifice. theoregonian.visitlink.me/CpbFSI
On their first night as a Women’s National Basketball Association franchise, the Portland Fire set the Rose Garden ablaze, breaking attendance records, and igniting a fanbase thirsty for professional women’s hoops after a 24-year drought.
