Israel and Hezbollah Are Escalating Toward Catastrophe (it’s not looking good for the IOF)

Tina Marie (Ms. Cat)

Ignore the propaganda. I’ve quoted the most relevant parts of the articles:

09-23-2024 – Israel and Hezbollah Are Escalating Toward Catastrophe

For Israel, the incentives also argue against a large-scale war with Hezbollah. After nearly a year of fighting in Gaza, the IDF is tired, munitions stockpiles are depleted, public support for Israel’s leaders is weak, Israel’s economy is suffering, and its international and regional standing have significantly eroded.

Quiet Quitting is Work to Rule

Tina Marie (Ms. Cat)

Sep 3, 2022 – An exploration of the term Quiet Quitting which keeps appearing in corporate propaganda articles.

I’m not even bothering to link to any corporate media articles, on “quiet quitting”, as they mostly tend to demonize workers, for not working overtime, or taking on extra work. When I worked overtime, on a salary, I was only paid $3 per hour (minimum wage was $7.25 and still is), after 40 hours, and most of the time, it was mandatory overtime. I was expected to do the same work, as everyone else (who made $7.25 + time and a half for overtime), and manage the business at the same time (I was young, single, and dumb). I’m not going to demonize anyone for not going above and beyond without proper compensation.
