I think if you don't want to buy things from major retailers today or any day that is great, and I would also love for everyone to remember that successful movements usually need to involve labor, and to start thinking of yourself as a worker first and a consumer second

I normally do not market myself very much, but giving it a shot these days because YOLO or whatever.

I left my marketing career to pursue fitness & coaching because I was burned out. Turns out, jumping careers doesn’t magically fix exhaustion. Who knew? 😅

I had to learn how to actually recover...

This is the stupidest fucking thing to come out of the Trump administration.

I am a First Amendment guy, and this is one of the grossest violations I could have imagined.

He wants to use our tax dollars to enrich himself, and that's it.

Anyone who thought this wasn't his ultimate goal is ignorant.

Our current administration supports banning books because they know how easily we can fight back with knowledge and creativity. Let's do something radical and show them that, through community care, we can imagine and create a better life for ourselves and our neighbors 🖤

So lets recap:

- Trump announces tariffs.
- Allies turn against the U.S., launch boycotts on U.S. products and boo us at events.
- Markets nosedive.
- Trump caves.

The "deals":
- Mexico agrees to do the same things they always do at the border to help the U.S. (including under Biden) 1/

My fiancé said he hoped cocaine goes up 25% too as retaliation to hit Trump where it will hurt most.

TRUE STORY: Every morning I get up, and I do all my stupid NYT games (except Letter Boxed because I don’t like it) plus Immaculate Grid. And once I’ve won every game, I quietly say to myself “yayyy I’m the greatest person who ever lived”

Say what you want about Joe Biden, but I will miss him dearly specifically because there were entire days -- sometimes several in a row!!!! -- over the past 4 years that I didn't once think about the president. RIP to that.

Also, I'm here. I haven't been Interneting a whole lot lately -- other than randomly googling stuff and looking at the Wikipedia articles about that stuff, apparently. I was falling down a rabbit hole reading about the most northern parts of the planet that are inhabited for some reason.

I had no idea how much I relied on Wikipedia to sate my thirst for random knowledge until the past idk 16 hours when it's been down for me.
