Please join me* on Friday for National Buy Nothing Day. We can sit in our comfy chairs with knitting and beverages of choice and miss out on the crazy insane madness that is Black Friday in the US. Together.
From the linked site:
So this November 27 (November 28 in Europe and overseas), we’re calling for a Wildcat General Strike. We’re asking tens of millions of people around the world to bring the capitalist consumption machine to a grinding – if only momentary – halt.
We want you to not only stop buying for 24 hours, but to shut off your lights, televisions and other nonessential appliances. We want you to park your car, turn off your phones and log off of your computer for the day.
