Portland’s Royal Sonesta: bought for $108.3M in 2016. Now reportedly sold for $6.83M for 220 rooms—just $31,000 per key. A staggering 93.7% price collapse.
This is what happens when government fails at public safety, downtown disorder spirals, Measure 110’s consequences go unaddressed, and Multnomah County’s mental-health system fails people in crisis.
Tourism doesn’t thrive where visitors feel unsafe and downtown businesses struggle to survive.
Portland didn’t get here by accident. Policy choices have consequences—and taxpayers, workers, businesses, and property owners are paying the price.

How bad is administrative bloat in higher ed?
At MIT, the “student body has grown by 8% and its faculty by 9% since the mid-1980s. By comparison, the tally of administrators jumped by 189%.”

The Oilers Entertainment Group are likely going to learn an expensive lesson. They tried to push ticket prices to extract the maximum value people would be willing to pay. Not an unreasonable idea in a simplistic market situation. Why let scalpers capture the scarcity profit? /1

The Left loves confrontational protest and hates incremental policy gains, so the fact that confrontational protest tends to be unpopular and incremental policy gains tend to be popular is a problem for them.

The Soviet Union once single handedly drove several whale species to the brink of extinction because murdering them pointlessly was the best way to fulfil the fishing quotas set by communist bureaucrats in metric tonnes.

According to the book, Kushner got Tillerson fired for a $50 million UAE payment because Tillerson supported Qatar. This panicked Qatar because they realized Kushner was a pay-to-play operative, so they bought Kushner's New York City apartments, which were in the red, hoping this would help.

Obama may actually be a 4d chessmaster, getting this idiot to spend the last week telling everyone about all the expensive interior decorating he's been doing while gas in $4-5 bucks a gallon.

what's obviously behind the "wokeness" discourse is that relatively esoteric academic theory from the 1970s and 80s got dumped on people who had no context for it in the 2010s

reactionaries hollowed out the American soft power apparatus that was used to flip past Brazilian elections specifically bc they’re too stupid to understand that the woke USAID facade was the velvet glove concealing the iron fist of American hegemony. you need both to do this

I also love that being compared to Saddam Hussein just rolled off Trump’s and every other Republicans’ back. That was the actual insult guys!

I think there's a lot to be said for the theory that the WNBA enjoyed being, more or less, a subsidized social club for lesbian athletes and doesn't actually like their newfound spike in popularity.
