Banksy on Advertising
“People are taking the piss out of you everyday. They butt into your life, take a cheap shot at you and then disappear. They leer at you from tall buildings and make you feel small. They make flippant comments from buses that imply you’re not sexy enough and that all the fun is happening somewhere else. They are on TV making your girlfriend feel inadequate. They have access to the most sophisticated technology the world has ever seen and they bully you with it. They are “The Advertisers” and they are laughing at you.
You, however, are forbidden to touch them. Trademarks, intellectual property rights and copyright law mean advertisers can say what they like wherever they like with total impunity.
Fuck that. Any advert in a public space that gives you no choice whether you see it or not is yours. It’s yours to take, re-arrange and re-use. You can do whatever you like with it. Asking for permission is like asking to keep a rock someone just threw at your head.
You owe the companies nothing. Less than nothing, you especially don’t owe them any courtesy. They owe you. They have re-arranged the world to put themselves in front of you. They never asked for your permission, don’t even start asking for theirs.”
~ Banksy

From Serbia
Did you guys drop one of your cans? That’s why bringing weapons to party is dangerous.
Side note: I’m sorry but the 12 year old boy in me can’t stop reading FAP.

Real Talk news is up and running.
I’m am pleased to announce the newest addition to my blogopoly, presented in the form of Real Talk News.
“This is real news. This is happening now, and it affects you. You will not find coverage of how your favorite sports team did here nor will you see coverage of what Lady Gaga wore to the ball. You will however, be informed of events and actions that affect your life and social contract with your government. Straight facts, no bull, real talk.”
This blog will provide daily coverage of politics, politician activity, the 99% Occupations, controversial laws, LGBT rights, Earth Science, General Science, world events, people who are angels in human form, people who are the spawn of satan and why, good news and bad, and stories of the 99%. More topics will be covered, but those will be the primary focuses unless new material comes up.
The mainstream media is failing, but you can stay informed.

God forbid the citizens of this country are ever able to shape policy. That would just be un-American, getting to choose how you live your life.

I hate to be the Irony Police, but that’s pretty much the whole point. They can’t, and they don’t. Have homes and jobs, I mean. There was a guy out there a few days ago holding a sign in front of a mortgage-lending institution that read “These People Took My Parent’s Home.” There are all sorts of people walking around Wall Street yelling their lungs out at you because, well, they really would like the opportunity to find gainful employment, as well as a future, but that nifty shell game you and yours pulled off (on our dime) wound up immolating the economy of the common man/woman, and so the common man/woman has decided - in lieu of anything else better to do - to spend their you-created idle hours on your doorstep."
An Open Letter to Wall Street, by William Rivers Pitt on Truthout
Read the whole letter here. This is the one of the best summaries of the Occupy Wall Street protests I’ve seen.
