One highlight, because few people understand how "relocation" is used for leverage. It's not about extracting a ransom from desperate fans. It creates fear among representatives who know better, and gives them, civic leaders, media members, etc. a pretext to support bad policy.
Koyama Lane told OPB that, through conversations, these lobbyists ‘have made it clear that elected officials will be blamed if the team leaves Portland.’”

News coverage circulated in City files, February 2026 · production C452264, p.147 Verified

Put that pressure beside the reception where the team introduced councilors to the commissioner, the game tickets and parking passes offered to new members, and a business community that treats this project as the test of whether you are serious about Portland — and you have a vote where conviction and career point in the same direction for almost everyone. Which is exactly why the loudest argument for this deal is the one about losing the team. It is not primarily aimed at the public. It is aimed at the people casting the votes, and it works, because it converts a hard question about price into an easy question about loyalty. I believe several councilors know this deal is bad and will vote for it anyway — not because anyone bought them, but because the structure charges them personally for being right and pays them for going along. That is a design flaw in the room, and the fix is structural, not moral: make the information a precondition, and a councilor who asks for it is following the rules instead of risking a franchise.

AQI is 125 and the sky is gray-orange but I'm gonna heat tf out of my kitchen regardless and make my famous peach pizza for the kid. closed a huge sample clearance deal today so I broke my workweek fast and popped a lil somethin. it's really cool to pay someone who never got it the first go 'round.

not to mention classics like Fear Of A Black Planet and De La Soul Is Dead requiring multi vinyl DJ pressings after complaints that no one could play the single vinyl masters in the clubs

sklutecase @sklute.bsky.social · 04/08/2026
also expanded editions have existed since the CD era vinyl has a finite amount of physical space for music, of course the issue of doing a double or triple disc version is going to influence decision making. you don’t get a deal on the second (or third) discs

I have assumed the Rodrigo edits are about side length, weird for the author to not mention also there’s The Clipse’s last record which was missing a key song on the first pressing due to sample clearance issues
