Well, how’d everyone do?
I had to order some magic cards so I stayed up until midnight to do it lol. I also need to replace a pvc pipe under my kitchen sink so that waited until today and I’ve been getting water from the bathroom…
It was easy for us as we have cut out a lot of consumerism to begin with so we are not the best household for it. Would be interesting to hear if folks who are the type getting deliveries every day stopped for yesterday.
I heard buying local is fine so we got some sandwiches from a local restaurant, but other than that, we just stayed in. So success on our parts I think!
I didn’t know about it. Tried to pull into Kroger after work and couldn’t find a parking spot. I’m going to say it is likely even the stores didn’t know about it. Ended up saying forget it, skipped dinner and picked up something from the mom and pop liquor store instead. That about sums up America for me right now
I “broke” about 8pm ET to donate to Ukraine. I know we were boycotting Visa/Mastercard too, but after yesterday’s shitshow I felt like solidarity was worth more than my boycott.
Otherwise, it was fine. I’ve already been heavily limiting my spending since the inauguration anyway, after admittedly overspending at the end of the Biden term to prep for impending tariffs.

I see no problem with that. The taco bus down the street isn’t a part of the oligarchy, ya know
