		<description><![CDATA[Despite my extremely jaded outlook, every year brings a new Christmas horror that manages to shock me. This year's is “Santa Clausets.” While driving down a side road, I passed a self storage unit and my usual thought flashed across my forebrain: that most people can only stand their lives by putting their selves in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So it's here again - Black Friday and all its kittens. O Joy. I had sincere hopes that the economic woes of the last few years would inspire people to rethink their role in the whirlwind of consumer greed and destruction. Alas, besides a few passing op-eds and a passel of posturing poltroons (I'm looking [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I once thought the case of the genuine artist who did nothing except for what maximum amount they could extract from their work was a fairly modern thing. Hollywood seems to have a lock on the model these days, and perhaps always has. There are any number of high-profile creative types around who, in another [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A new user pointed me to a site that used a great phrase that's somehow escaped my notice until now: Brandalism. It's defined as "the defacement of public buildings and spaces by corporate ads, logos, and other forms of branding (brand + vandalism)." I suppose all advertising could be lumped into this concept, but it [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ah, yes, Super Bowl Sunday, the day even the most sensible American consumers take leave of their senses. More so, in many ways, than on Christmas. It's just a freakin' football game, people. It's not the Second (or XXXII) Coming. If you're a football fan, it's a great day. If you're a (genuine) fan of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A little-noticed movement with roots primarily in France, Spain and other parts of Europe may be one of the Renegade Consumer movement's strongest allies in the years to come. The movement, which originated nearly a century ago and came into prominence in the 1970s, is known as La Décroissance − French that translates as “degrowth.” [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the world of the blogosphere, bullet points rule. We like to think Renegades are capable of reading real paragraphs, sometimes several of them in a row, without any need for the ideas to be distilled to highlighted sentences. But we also want the message to have universal reach, so for those who like their [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the things that strikes me about many “alternative” systems is how much they are based on scrounging the leavings of another system — often the primary system that the rebels profess to loathe. While often well-intentioned, these efforts are ultimately futile and counterproductive. One such movement is the biodiesel fuel effort, which modifies [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There was always hope in the Renegade ranks that the Great Recession would produce a permanent reordering of consumer priorities − that people subjected to the economic unpleasantness of the last few years would wake up and realize that they were being scammed. Sadly, the trend is otherwise, and retailers are celebrating a substantial upturn [...]]]></description>
