@Irenetherogue@beige.party Not sure the first one is possible.

@Irenetherogue@beige.party Good suggestions. I'm retired, so I'm mostly trying to avoid any shopping, and if I find I must, I'll seek out a locally owned store.

@Irenetherogue I'm closing my account at a major banking institution (the final step in switching to a credit union)

@Irenetherogue Also DON'T STOP WHEN THEY SAY IT'S OVER. Stopping it tells the oligarchs that they've won. And don't make the mistake of thinking that this is all about Trump: The Democrats are at LEAST as responsible for fascism in America as the Republicans. We all have to fight, or we're not going to survive.

@Irenetherogue As I'm reading the list I'm picturing me as a soap opera actress doing all of these things. There's lots of eye make up. OMG. What fun. Let's go.

@Irenetherogue abstain from using private rideshares as possible. Bike, walk, or take public transit if you’re going somewhere. Pack what nourishment you will need so you don’t have to buy anything while you’re out

@Irenetherogue I’m kind of already the minimalist

@Irenetherogue Sounds like a good day for lots of naps.

@Irenetherogue Yes. I'll hitthe ATM (hey, how about a small bank run for cash???) Do my bike commute We have a community full moon ride out to a local ice cream shop. YES. I can cut bakc onthe INTERNET. Hmm. That has me thinking about a mass "go offline for N hours!" movement.

@Irenetherogue gotta say I’d love to show solidarity but working at a nonprofit social services agency pretty much means it’s probably solidarity to just show up as usual It’s a shame too cause I could sure use a few days off

@Irenetherogue I'm not in the States right now, so I'm going harder than I normally do with boycotting US products. (there's a handful of things I reluctantly get because there is literally no other option) Not a single red cent is going towards an American product or service.

@Irenetherogue I'm trying to convince myself that #BandcampFriday (May 1) is OK because all of the purchase price goes to the artists. But bandcamp is owned by a big company and has been bad on labor issues. 🤷♂️

@Irenetherogue What unions are striking? I just heard about this today. I tried looking it up, but all I saw was something about the No Kings protests.

@Irenetherogue and then keep doing it on 5/2, 5/3, ad infinitum.

@Irenetherogue Food cart Friday!

@Irenetherogue The most important group, the backbone of the national economy, yet the most vulnerable to rights violations. Here in Gaza, for the third year, workers are without work and without rights. My father can't provide food for us simply because he's unemployed. Don't forget them🇵🇸🇵🇸🥺

@Irenetherogue Do those things every day not just once a year

@Irenetherogue you people are still going to work? Have you seen the late stage crumbling of capitalism into freefall fascism lately? Who can even think of work?

@Irenetherogue yeah. I haven’t unpacked my coffee machine yet so went to buy coffee. Left a $10 cash tip at least. Doing minimal work to hit a deadline for this week and nothing else. It’s kinda what I’ve got atm.
