As you boycott major corporations, you may want to join a local “Buy Nothing” group. buynothingproject.org
#LiberalResistance #BuyNothing #EconomicBlackout #Boycotts

Top of image says “Buy Nothing,” black text on a green and blue banner.

Main text says:
As you transition away from big business, you may want to join a local “Buy Nothing” group.

BuyNothingProject.org

All things are asked for or given away for free.

The bottom of the image has the Bluesky handle:

The bottom right says “Liberal Resistance” under the liberal resistance symbol, a combination of an “L” and an “R,” white symbol on a black background.

The only violence I’ve been seeing in Portland is from the so-called Feds!!!

Keep sharing these videos; it’s evidence.

More love.

A piece of art with a painterly light blue background. At the bottom is the work love gut out of green painted paper. There are variations of green on the words. Above “love” is a multi colored flower with many petals all a unique color. In the center of the flower is green star with an eye in the middle. The artwork is made with painted cut paper.

I can’t not believe how hard it is to sleep when you’re watching your country, be dismantled by the dumbest people.

If you have the strength, protest on October 18.

If you don't, but have the means, support the protests by bringing food or water to hand out to protesters.

If you don't have the strength, and don't have the money, encourage others to go.

I am not a terrorist!

We need to become #toobigtojail.

We’re two weeks away from the largest day of peaceful protest in American history. No matter where you live, there’s probably a No Kings Day event happening near you to show we won’t cower in response to Trump’s authoritarian takeover: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings
