Post

I’ve been holding on to my Post subscription. I keep making excuses for myself like “they still do some decent reporting” and “I like the Capital Weather Gang.” Well I’m done. I’m calling tomorrow to cancel.

I don’t care if they’re ‘outliers’ or part of a pack. If they’re promoting the idea that the man who incited armed insurrection, funded genocide, and has set his military against his own citizens deserves a Peace Prize, they are completely unserious people and should never be given a platform.

When Bezos forced himself into the opinion page last year I very loudly told everyone at WaPo that if they stayed there they were complicit. I got a lot of flack for attacking writers. But I was right, and I standd by every word. Ethical writers had a duty to leave.

Oh how I miss my weekly responses to Thiessen's drivel - no longer possible since I cancelled my subscription: "As always, Thiessen - Satan is waiting to claim your soul; right now, he's only LEASING it."

He threatened a war with Iran He threatened a war with Canada He threatened a war with Denmark over Greenland He's bombed Yemen, Iran, Pakistan and Somalia and random boats in int'l waters He's caused int'l incidents with almost every ally we have This must be some new definition of "peace"

Brian Tyler Cohen will post something to xitter and instead of copying and pasting, he'll take a screenshot of that and post it here. Actually, I assume he has someone working for him who does it, which makes it worse.

I’ve never regretted cancelling (years ago after they treated some shrill anti-mask former journalist troll with no medical background as a legitimate voice in public health), but I often regret that I couldn’t cancel WaPo again.

If this was before when there was just print media, it might matter. These days if you start talking to a different audience, yours walks. If all media outlets start preaching the Trump Gospel then you know you're f*cked.

Unprecedented peacemaking accord? You mean getting them back (less 100,000 lives) to where they were before tRump sold Israeli data to Putin who sold it to Iran who gave it to Hamas who used it to facilitate October 7?

This is ridiculous, only a delusional sycophant could suggest Trump deserves the Nobel Peace Prize. The prize was awarded for actions in 2024- I’m sure Trump believes he should receive it instantaneously for his Gaza plan-which let’s wait a bit on that one. Trump promises a lot and delivers little

I realize that violence is never the answer, but couldn't we get Moe from the Three Stooges to shout "Numbskull!" and slap Thiessen upside the head, as a little treat?
