Tbh I would be pretty background-terrified if I still lived in CO rn. We really need all hands on deck for (major, uncontrolled) wildfire amelioration. Tho that honestly can be said of EVERY area our “administration” is making more “efficient” — aka mutilating.

Tomorrow, February 28, let’s disrupt the status quo by spending ONLY at businesses that uplift our communities.

That means:
🚫 No gas from corporate giants
🚫 No fast food chains
🚫 No big-box retailers (Target, Walmart, Amazon, etc.)
