I struggled at the airport at 4:45am, but held strong and didn’t buy a cappucino.

ilikestuff25.bsky.social•18 hours ago

I didn't buy anything as of yesterday. I am definitely not buying anything today.

What sucks is people that live on Social security and disability get paid today because the 1st is on a weekend. I desperately need some things but I will not shop today. Tomorrow will be a better day to take care of my needs. 😊 We have to do this together. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Did you get your SSD?
I didn’t 😭😭

ladiking.bsky.social•12 hours ago

You didn't?? I was worried about that. 😢

dalylvr.bsky.social•12 hours ago

Nope. No idea why. The worst part is I cracked my phone’s screen, and it is not letting me call out anymore, so I can’t even call SS to ask where it is. FML right now 😤😭

ladiking.bsky.social•11 hours ago

I tried to call social security last week. I could not get through because they are short staffed and had to go in. I'm sorry your going through this. I am scared for all of us that live on a depend on our Society Security/Disability checks. 😢😢

dalylvr.bsky.social•11 hours ago

I wonder how many more of us there are today. 🤔

I think I'm watching my pennies from now on until that orange bastard is out and never coming back. Trump isn't my president.

I’m also avoiding toxic social media.

Not one purchase today and stayed off FakeBook, 9 year boycott of everything FoX, Home Depot, and more

grandmainfl.bsky.social•18 hours ago

I stopped yesterday. I got gas at 11am and that is my last purchase.

teelzee.bsky.social•9 hours ago

I feel more inclined to extend this to a weekly protest.

solarjules.bsky.social•15 hours ago

Yep I just took a walk. Going to the library later. Make a nice home cooked meal. Spend time with my dog & husband

raven1313.bsky.social•9 hours ago

because of my blackout from FB and others beside bluesky, anyone know if people held to not buying things?

1curioushippy.bsky.social•13 hours ago

It's feels like the most proactive democratic WE THE PEOPLE thing I've done since voting in November. This is just the beginning. We can keep this up and humble these greedy capitalists and billionaires. There are more of us than them!!!

EST for me at 7pm and not a penny spent, even though I've been craving ice cream. Alas, my freezer has none. There's always tomorrow!

I use Amazon maybe 3 times a year. Im moving to a community near a Costco so cant wait to get a membership. Ive long been a buy less, thrift, small business local supporter it is a lifestyle for me. A lifetime advocate of buy small. Thank you to everyone boycotting.

maleficentthegreat.bsky.social•18 hours ago

I believe it does hurt them in the wallet despite what they may say. I'm proud to be taking part in this action and look forward to more. 💙

ernsthx.bsky.social•18 hours ago

I have plenty to get, but I'm not buying a thing.

sanitynow.bsky.social•16 hours ago

Serious question, based on the fact that my family ate everything in fridge in the past 12 hrs, can I Costco?

stilldancing.bsky.social•17 hours ago

Thanks for reminding us, Peter--we're grateful for you every day!🙏💙
Quickly cancelled a couple of routine shop appointments we had scheduled for today.

Canada is helping too. No American companies get our money today either

chroniclesofliv.bsky.social•14 hours ago

I was just talking to my brother about this. We think that a nationwide economic blackout should occur every week: No Buy Fridays. Most people get paid on Fridays and spend more than any other day of the week. Let's stop doing that, barring necessities. Practice adjusting spending #economicblackout

blueskymind.bsky.social•6 hours ago

What people don't buy on Friday, they buy on Saturday. The bottom line doesn't change.

Log off social media platforms owned by Meta, Google, M*sk, Bezos (Goodreads!), and other oligarchs for a day, a week, a lifetime, they can never get that share of our attention back.

black-dog1.bsky.social•18 hours ago

I think this is a good start,and I’m in

blueriverliver.bsky.social•18 hours ago

On Tuesday, I placed an online order from Costco for basic household/pantry items. That’s my last purchase until groceries this weekend. We don’t have Costco near us - but I found out you don’t need a membership to order from them. I will support Costco and dump Amazon and Walmart moving forward.

soshepersisted.bsky.social•6 hours ago

Only got a coffee at my local independent coffee shop run by women only.

mphamner.bsky.social•10 hours ago

Yep, I started at midnight last night. The way I feel now with that BS in the Oval Office I may just go all weekend!

nattys1.bsky.social•18 hours ago

I am following you from Germany. You are doing so well and you are so brave in this fight for medical aid for everyone. I am so sorry to see what you have to go through.

People need to just stop with Amazon, I did years ago, buy from the vendor direct if you can, stop shopping or eating at any f these corporate plaes for ever. Shop local. Support your local taquerias. Today is not hard for me.
