Black Friday kicks off the biggest spending week of the year….right when layoffs are rising, prices are climbing, and corporations are mocking the very people keeping them alive.

This blackout week isn’t about deprivation - it’s about redirecting power back into our own communities.

Immigration raids hit different when you’re watching it unfold in real time—families scared, neighborhoods on edge, kids asking questions adults can’t fully answer.

But the community?

We don’t have limits.

So people showed up anyway.

We are our own safety net.

Always have been.

I came to Bluesky planning to just share food.

But the truth is, I’ve spent 20 years learning how to build relationships,
create support systems,
and connect in ways that feel real and lasting.

Leaving that part out?

Wouldn’t be fair to me—or the people who need it. 💜💫✨ #community
