Here’s something wild: musicians now make more money from crowdfunding than streaming.
Why? Because platforms like Spotify pay them so little, they have to ask fans for money just to get by (and so do we).
That’s not a business model. That’s exploitation.
Let’s build a system where musicians don’t have to beg to survive. Let’s make fair streaming a reality. https://crowdfunding.startsomegood.com/thepackmusiccoop

NAACP's Boycott List:
Google (all google services, google pixel phones, everything)
Meta (facebook, instagram, threads, WhatsAp)
McDonalds
Walmart
Tractor Supply
Target
**My additions below:
Amazon
Ford
Toyota
Nissan

I'll get back to photography someday I promise, sorry it's been more information lately on my page, but I want to promote helpful knowledge of easy things to do to help.
Come on out to RavenCon this weekend! If you can't do that, at least avoid the zon on Saturday and buy your books from a small bookstore instead.
Independent Bookstore Day is coming April 26th Canada!
Support your local bookstores like two in Saskatoon: Turning the Tide and McNally-Robinson.

My local grocery store labels its cheese scraps “hodge podge fromage” and I think that’s just great.
Boycott U.S. products / services
My partner noted black tarps covering U.S. wines was removed - shelved items replaced with non-American products.
I was initially worried (when she told me) that the U.S. products were back ... NOPE!

Boston/Cambridge/Somerville peeps:
If you need a futon, or anything futon-adjacent, I want to give a HUGE shout out to Bedworks in Central Square.
Yes, I'm sure you already know about them and I know they've been there forever and I know they're practically an institution (I think I bought my first futon couch from them in the 80s?)...
but it was just *such* a lovely experience to go in and buy something local and spend the time having a lovely extended conversation with the staff person there (wish I'd gotten his name!)

Since so many of us are choosing Canadian and local, maybe it's time to look at Ontario wines? Chatted with a couple of local wine experts and got some ideas about some ideas beyond what's on LCBO shelves.

Heute im Getränkemarkt.
Mineralwasser wird ohnehin schon aus der nahen Vulkaneifel gekauft.
Bei koffeinhaltigen Kaltgetränken und Limonaden ist das #buyeuropean und #buylocal Angebot auch schon top. Für etwaige Zweifel macht sich die BuyFromEU App ganz gut, die leider im #fdroid Store fehlt. Geschmacklich und ethisch sind viele D/EU Alternativen schon ganz weit voraus, bei Payment und #MonopolyTech sieht es noch eher dünn aus.
Immerhin gibt es nicht nur das gute #fairphone als #eu Telefon.
Transferred live Canada-grown lettuces from the grocery store into a container and they're taking root and growing nicely. Can't wait to transfer them out to the garden when it warms up. #canada #buylocal #elbowsup #gardening
The small private #tariffWar: It was extremely easy for the pre-Eastern #shopping not to buy any #USproducts. The hypermarche has even started to sort out some products because people #boycott them. #buyLocal #boycottTrump #buyRegional
I pulled them out to thaw so they can be ready to cook when we are both off work.
Seems like I made a good choice to suspend my super exclusive special annual subscription to the online store with all the stuff that just doubled in price.
#BuyLocal - if you can find it.
#RightToRepair just took on a whole new meaning now that capitalism decided to back a madman bent on revenge and retribution against any and all around the world who don’t express their sufficient loyalty and respect to his highest level of supreme judgements in the best deal making ever of all time in history or into the glorious new gilded age future.
Last night, we came together to celebrate local business at the Tri-Cities Chamber Awards. With the trade war impacting our communities, supporting local has never been more important.
While Liberals and Conservatives hand out billions to giant corporations and billionaires, they continue to punch down on small businesses. We will fix it. #buylocal #supportlocal #canada #teamcanada #trade #tradewar #liberals #fail #conservatives #cut #reelect #bonita #portmoody #coquitlam #ndp
