A return to thrift would actually be good thing for both people AND the planet, as an embrace of thrift will lead to slower, more sustainable growth, not the wild boom & busts we’ve been experiencing these last 4 decades. apple.news/AYZrfkyloQMyE4…
“Use it up
Wear it out
Make it do
Or do without.”
Let’s end fast fashion and its profligate wastefulness and horrendous environmental impact, shall we?

Celebrate thrift, not grift.

Easy way to do this in your own life = stop buying stuff that is made in China. For the things that are only made in China (lookin at you, smartphones), don’t churn your purchases. Use them til they break, don’t just upgrade because ya wanna.
And if you need new socks, #BuyAmerican. I highly recommend this, both your toes and your wallet will thank you.
Need cookware? #BuyAmerican. Affordable and best quality, peeps. Will last you your whole life.

“There can’t possibly be THAT many unclaimed bodies.”
Ever wonder why when people die, families often set up gofundme fundraisers to cover funeral costs? This is why:
Now imagine neighborhoods with hundreds of deaths in the span of a few weeks and ask yourself if newly unemployed, newly impoverished people would be able to crowdfund all of those funeral expenses.
Many of these families are already stressed about how they are going to pay the healthcare costs for their relatives who SURVIVED, let alone those who died, where in filial responsibility states, heirs are on the hook even after death. blogs.cfainstitute.org/investor/2017/…

Neighbors report there is a douchenozzle walking in the middle of the street in our UWS neighborhood waving a giant trump 2020 flag during the 7PM cheering for healthcare workers.
A real life troll, out to provoke anger, while people are expressing gratitude to health care staff.
Woe to him if he gets hurt while walking in the middle of a major thoroughfare; ER’s are quite busy at the moment.

The best thing to do would be to completely ignore him if you see him in your neighborhood; he’s out there because he WANTS to provoke you so don’t give him what he wants. Ignore him. Pretend he doesn’t exist.
