After 316 days of slinging news, analysis, and the occasional sharp-toothed bite for WPS News, plus another 66 days pouring ink into Occupy 2.5, I’m calling it a wrap—for now. That’s 382 days of wrestling the world’s chaos into words, and let me tell you, it’s been a hell of a ride. But even grinders need a breather, so I’m hitting the eject button and going ghost mode. As of June 30, 2025, I’m stepping back from the keyboard to see if I even remember how to stop writing.
This isn’t a goodbye; it’s a “catch you later.” I’ll be out there, somewhere, dodging the packet traffic of this wicked wet spot we call the internet. My liberation date is set, and my return? Well, that’s whenever I damn well please, but let’s pencil in September 1, 2025, for kicks. I’m curious to see if I can resist the urge to dissect the next headline or dunk on some absurdity in the digital swamp. Spoiler: it’s gonna be tough.
Why the break? Because after nearly a year of daily dispatches, I owe myself a chance to recharge, roam, and maybe rediscover what silence sounds like. To the readers who’ve stuck with me through the noise—your support’s been the fuel. I’ll be back, probably with new scars and stories, ready to dive back into the fray.
So, until then, keep your eyes peeled and your wits sharp. I’ll see you on the “bie and bie” (however you spell it) when the time comes. Stay loud, stay curious, and don’t let the algorithms win.
— Cliff, signing off for now.
