Boycott establishment media.

https://mondoweiss.net/2025/11/why-writers-must-boycott-the-new-york-times/

No, the New York Times isn't enough. It's all establishment media that must be cut off from attention and support.

That's the only tool the establishment has left - propaganda. Once that's gone, it's down the shitter for them. 

The beginning of yet another fun week at work.

I feel like every time I arrive there (we're supposed to be there more than few times a week, and we're tracked for attendance, like school kids), I have a target on my back and every person is after me for things that aren't done.

Never mind the fact that all of this is part of a an effort that's supposed to launch in the not-too-distant future, 'or else'.

Yeah - as if I don't have enough problems - I'm also working next week Saturday (my day job),

Hooray. 

It does make me wonder how much longer I can last in this business.

Scenario 1: The Brother Sam Option
Scenario 2: The Panama Option
Scenario 3: The Iraq Option
Scenario 4: The Gulf of Tonkin Option
Scenario 5: The Qasem Soleimani Option 

Not sure about that last one, as Iran's government is still here, and has been since 1979.

Dick Cheney is dead.

May his legacy be that capitalism is a fundamentally broken sysyem; in that the victims of his actions - on behalf of his donors - never received justice while he was alive. And that system made all this possible. 

Remember that.

Imagine if we tried this here in the US.

Of course to do that, we'd have to replace crapitalism with a system the prioritizes the needs of all, over the greed of a few.

Another reality that runs counter to the propaganda narratives spread by the US Empire and its media?
