Friends, I’m taking a short break from social media to find healing from the continual shocks to the system of the daily atrocities of the Trump administration.

I am boycotting Etsy and encourage all to do the same as they are selling Alligator Auschwitz merch that dehumanizes immigrants and promotes violence against helpless people. Amazon is also selling concentration camp souvenirs, yet another reason to boycott them.

For those who want to find my spiritual books for sale away from Amazon, please go to https://outskirtspress.com/bookstore to buy direct from my publisher. They are also online at Barnes and Noble and many other platforms.

We have to stay strong and take care of ourselves and each other. These are times that try the soul and cause us to question the humanity of people we thought we knew. I wish you all love and light, and I will be back soon. ❤️

Etsy is selling "Alligator Alcatraz" psychopathic merchandise & refuses to take it down.

Well, this assures I refrain from shopping on Etsy for a while--at least until they take down this evil fascist shit.

Boycott! I'll also write them a scathing email.

I've been a devoted Etsy shopper for years.

This Time #BoycottEtsy Is Just #TERFS Throwing a Tantrum That the Website Won’t Host Their Bigotry

unrelated to plurality but please be sure to #boycottetsy bc they're abusing their sellers, many of whom are only financially independent because of their Etsy businesses. been on strike since 4/11. We will be okay, our shop is still brand new and very much not something that we depend on yet. but many others will not be. many others are suffering pretty significant financial hardship just to make Etsy listen.

please send a physical letter to Etsy expressing your disappointment in their recent hike in hosting fees. if you want to simply print one out, you can go to www.etsystrike.org and download a prewritten one.

please decorate it and make it artful in a way that you value

please take a photo of your letter and post it on a social media platform that Etsy uses. please tag Etsy! please tag it with #boycott, #etsy, #etsystrike, & #artistsrights.

again, we're sorry that this isn't about plurality, but it is about community. and I don't think there's a group who knows about community more than this one.

ETSY STRIKE

been on strike since 4/11. I'm fortunate enough to be doing okay at the moment because Etsy isn't my primary income. there are many who aren't, and can't be.

please send Etsy a physical letter (please make it artful, whatever that means to you) and post it on a social media platform that Etsy uses.

TAG ETSY IN YOUR POST PLEASE

they're really trying to kill ppl who work through their marketplace. #boycott #EtsyStrike #boycottetsy #etsy #artistsrights
