Strike That
@jayabird.bsky.social
Mom, small business owner, book nerd, wannabe general strike organizer. Hobbies: gardening, games, cheerful defiance in the face of overwhelming odds. The *entire world* runs on the unpaid labor of women. When we strike, it all grinds to a complete halt.

My whole point: ppl "defining" words on social media with their own personal spin is Not Helpful. Par example: At No Kings, we saw ppl w "No Kings" signs harass others w a "Rule of Law" sign. Upon inquiry, the harassers replied in all sincerity that as communists they were against law enforcement.

It's true - what I need and what my family needs is for the Trump admin and MAGA to pack up all their crap and push off to Mars w Musk, Bezos, the Koch brothers, and Ghislaine Maxwell. I'm sure they'll do great. Oh and ffs do take Zuck too.

It’s not a great deal if you don’t need it. And especially this year, others really need support. So for all of us who have enough, let’s refuse to get sucked into the holiday shopping frenzy and share instead of shop. We don’t need more stuff, we need communities where all our neighbors are safe.

I won’t be spending a dime at Target, Home Depot or Amazon this week.
Target is a no-go zone for me. I fully received the message when they told me my money wasn’t shit to them.
Home Depot is DEAD to me too. Sicking ICE on peaceful productive workers turns my stomach.

Baristas are on strike in over 65 cities, demanding: higher pay, better hours, & an end to union busting. Until Starbucks brings us NEW proposals, you’ll see us on the picket line. #NoContractNoCoffee
