It is a time of freedom and fear, of Gaia and of borders, of many paths and the widening of a universal toll road, emptying country and swelling cities, of the public bought into privacy and the privacy of the public sold into invisible data banks and knowing algorithms. It is the time of the warrior's peace and the miser's charity, when the planting of a seed is an act of conscientious objection.

These are the times when maps fade and direction is lost. Forwards is backwards now, so we glance sideways at the strange lands through which we are all passing, knowing for certain only that our destination has disappeared. We are unready to meet these times, but we proceed nonetheless, adapting as we wander, reshaping the Earth with every tread.

Behind us we have left the old times, the standard times, the high times. Welcome to the irregular times.


Irregular Times Endorses Ralph Nader for President in 2004
Thursday, April 01, 2004
 
In the election year of 2004, the stakes could not be higher. Americans are being strung up from Iraq bridges. Energy prices are soaring. The deficit booms. The chasm of job losses yawns wider. The safety net is endangered. Lies seem to be metastasizing like an invidious form of cancer, spreading to areas of political and social life heretofore untouched by scandal.

Because it matters so much who wins the 2004 elections, we have (after careful deliberation) decided to formally endorse a candidate for office. Without further ado:

Irregular Times officially announces its endorsement of Ralph Nader for President.

Read a detailed explanation of our endorsement here.
