I follow the Portland Timbers and #MLS, generally, just not in long form. #rctid
Pretty excited for the end of 2025, honestly. Not our best year, globally.

It is important to talk about everything Trump is doing as a member and the leader of the Republican Party.
Every boat sunk off the coast of Venezuela was an act of murder supported by Republicans.
The tariffs are a Republican policy disaster flying home to roost, etc.

In all seriousness, and I type this as someone who doesn’t look around like he used to, I can’t count the number of times I’ve seen people argue that the Timbers don’t have the personnel to play a possession-based style. #rctid

Wanted to emphasize this one: it’s not just pipelines, refineries and gas stations; it’s about how Americans organized our communities, how it’s largely built around cars, most of which still aren’t even partially electric. Reorienting all that is massive lift. Necessary, but still *massive*.
“One generation’s innovations become a later era’s entrenchments.”
- Phillips, “American Theocracy
I’ve read about American corporations exploring the inevitable green future, which is encouraging, but those entrenchments create inertia against change. Then Trump comes in and rearranges incentives.

A hopeful(ish) note to end on: Someone rounded up comments from Democrats about the Venezuela fiasco (fuck it, branding it now). Most of the quotes are encouraging (fwiw, Chris Murphy does the best at narrative).
Maybe they do all right? (Lemme dream.)

This is outta my system for now, but I heard something about rare earth mineral reserves in Venezuela, which (based on some weird sources) appears to be accurate. They’ve only been mined informally and corruptly so far…
…other nations with large reserves: Greenland and Canada.
