I don't really care what smart people think about success. That's a given that life is easier for smart people. I want to know how stupid people survive. That's some hard won shit there. Stupid people shouldn't listen to smart people. inc.com/geoffrey-james…
It's kinda what I do for living... talking to normal people about normal stuff in extraordinary situations. Problem is, no one wants to quote normal or unfamous people when they have words of wisdom. So we are left with demotivation posters. Enjoy. despair.com/collections/de…
Farmer leaning on a fence. Car pulls up. "Do you know how I can get to Route 91?" driver asks. Farmer says said, "Nope." "nearest turnpike ?" "Nope," "How about Hadley. "Nope." "You don't know much, do you?" driver says. "Nope," the farmer replied. "But I'm not lost."

But wait...there's more. ASOG's Texas Nexus is part of the old Lincoln Group posse (the Iraq Disinformation crowd) that includes Mrs Joe Burkett and former and current Flynn and Rudy fuckery folks. Faux Antifa in the house. thedailybeast.com/lara-logan-the…
Extreme idea of the week. If you were an outsider couldn't you look at the GOP and their leadership over the last four years as a criminal organization involved in sedition, money laundering, obstruction and subversion of the democratic process? #RICOcnn.com/2021/05/09/pol…
I continually see mob like tactics in taking out those who won't swear to omertà, attacking critics, creating smear campaigns and trying to destroy the democratic process. Important note. I want the GOP to be a functioning party since taxpayers fund it.
Not a fan of Trump, Cheney or frat boy rapists. But Trump literally sent a rapey Florida errand boy to Wyoming to create a fictional protest. Trump is destroying the GOP. Which is almost one half of our government but a fraction of popular representation. theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
The media needs to up their game. They are severely outspent, out manned and out gunned by their subjects. Start spending serious money to out criminals in our government. We will thank you for it and click on those ads. washingtonpost.com/national-secur…
Sometimes its hard to tell if they are serious about defending the public interest or stirring the pot. We just survived four years of criminal conspiracy and sedition. There oughta be something worth digging into. bestcommunicationsdegrees.com/biggest-media-…
Right now the media has access to all the same commerical tools used by JSOC and governments to unmask fuckery and hunt terrorists or dissidents. But it costs money. The government is using it against journalists so why not level the playing field? fas.org/sgp/crs/terror…
The late Danny Schechter did a great doc on this. Yes I helped. That's me mumbling in the intro and explaining what its like to be embedded with journalists. Homemade but earnest it's an attempt to show the collusion of the media in the murder of Iraqis.
Tired of the bullshit being fed into the public from embedded media, I created IraqSlogger with Eason Jordan. The most insightful and real reporting from the ground in Iraq. iraqslogger.powweb.com
