I stopped basically all discretionary spending in 2025, particularly when Trump was threatening to invade my country (with most of these companies being American) while all the shitty billionaires were smiling pleasantly and cheerfully glazing him. Amazon Prime cancelled, Netflix cancelled. My policy is: fuck these turbocunts from now on and steal everything that isn’t nailed down. From now on, I only support real human people, and corporations are certainly not people, they are the opposite of people, and the real human people they employ are being exploited, and I don’t support that either. I am going to start opting out of this shitty economy to the fully extent humanly possible. I’ll find real humans to build a resilient, supportive, sustainable community with, people’s whose backs I will have, and who will have mine, and I will of course freely share all my pirate booty with them.

They might get some of us, but they’ll never get all of us. That’s how we save the world, my friends. You don’t have to rescue everyone from this dystopia, you just have to rescue your friends and family and neighbors, which enables them to rescue more, and pretty soon the dystopia starts to look more like a block party, and it doesn’t need anyone’s permission. We have more than enough essentials on this planet for all of us to survive on our own, they’re just distributed unfairly and hoarded, and for all the non-essentials that we have become addicted to, we’ll figure out how to substitute or perhaps even improve on. They’re non-essential by definition, and we can do better, and we should do better. I don’t need all this plastic shit in my life to survive, and neither do you. We should keep some of it though, it’s sort of fun.
