By proceeding with the loading of my groceries in the car before seeking approval from alleged "cashiers," I forced the issue. It's a strategy known as "stake-driving."

Penmanship copy by William Chinnery; engravings by J. Hulett, W. Hutchinson, F. Garden and W. Tringham

Great explainer from a public library digital buyer about limitations on what they license from Libby, Audible, and other commercial providers β€”Β and how those companies set strict restrictions (we really need a better system, and some folks are working on it: eg, www.thecrimson.com/article/2025...)

It cannot get lost in the shuffle, even with so much else going on, that the world's most wealthy people have had their minds absolutely rotted out, just saturated to the dripping point with black mold down to the studs and frame, by the all encompassing unhumanity of their wealth.

This is several days old. But amidst so much else id missed it. That’s a stunning number. No wonder they about-faced. Reminder of the power of consumers in oligarch era, not subject to the same kind of targeting.
