This is some incredible in-the-room reporting from @elitan.bsky.social and Maureen Farrell on how Meta got its vast, six-square-mile data center cooking in Louisiana www.nytimes.com/2026/07/27/t...
Maybe the funniest part of the arena shakedown is seeing investment groups claim loss of "foot traffic" for "small businesses" in the area. Like, what in the fuck are you even talking about? The place is bound by a freeway on one side, an abandoned river silo on the other, and jack shit between.
Trying hard not to be a hater, but there are some small businesses in Portland that seem to attract a higher-than-average number of Cybertruck owners.
Bulldoze the arena and turn it into a public sex forest.

Shortly after moving out here I saw a Prius with an OreGUNian sticker right behind a big lifted truck with DSA stickers, magical place
The average American can't comprehend the Oregonian mind. You think you know people and then you meet Bob, who's wearing tie dye under his 1% club leathers and telling you about the benefits Reiki healing inside his crystal shop with a sign that reads, "This store is protected by the 2nd Amendment."
This is a free thing you should go to. cstpdx.com/event/candid...

Here is me shooting my shot: I recently won a national award for my film criticism at the Portland Mercury, but I have never been asked to do an intro, or a Q&A, or write an essay for a physical media release, so I would like to state that I am shamelessly available for all of those things.

So, we know the proposed renovations are: a new entrance, more kitchens, a 300-level bar, and the long-suspected upgrade to club seats. Blazers management is saying Novick's offhanded comment is a "gun to their head" but now also threatening to ask for a whole new arena? Get absolutely fucked.
