Ok it's finally happening.
My Calendar 2026 is now available for pre-order. Printing by end of the month to allow for international shipping.

Tyson is closing a Nebraska plant that employs 3,200 workers in order to “right-size” its business.
The meatpacking giant paid its CEO $22.7M last year, 525x its median employee's pay.
It also spent $196M in stock buybacks to reward shareholders.
Textbook corporate greed.
