Hi, friends,

Thank you all for the rubrics! If you forgot to send me one, you still can. I had a great birthday and I have so much hope for the future.

This is just a reminder email about tomorrow's economic boycott. Is it going to fix everything? No way. Do we at least have to try? Yes. If we don't all participate as much as we can, how are we ever going to get out from under Musk and the Project 2025 gang? This is all going to conitinue to get worse until they push us too far and we push back. One day of not buying things isn't going to do it--we're going to need to buckle down and take away their power by not giving them our money for a longer period of time. But one day is a good start.

Tomorrow, please don't buy anything from anywhere that isn't a small local business or an independent online seller. If possible, only spend cash, don't use cards or online payment apps. If you need to fill prescriptions or buy gas, do it, but be as little a part of the consumer economy as possible.

Maybe tomorrow would be a good day to read a book or make some kind of art yourself. I'll be crocheting a baby blanket for charity out of donated yarn to really feel like I'm sticking it to the big companies dominating the economy. If you've got something that makes you feel like you're sticking it to them, tell me about it.

Love,

Magda
