I voted early, and you should, too.
It was about a 40 minute wait for me, so I used to time to futz on my phone and plan lunch. If I were smart, I'd have brought my crochet along. I could have completed at least one watermelon kipa in that time.

There's nothing that will end an argument quite like the phrase "cite your sources"

New week, New stickers. Still donating a buck from every sticker of any design sold until the election.

Due to #StickerMule 's shenanigans, I've seen a ton of "can't we just leave politics out of business?!" but at this point in time, I don't think we can afford to.
I'm non binary, Jewish (free Palestine), mentally ill, and physically disabled. My mere existence is political, and I'm not looking to spend money with people who hate me.
So, the non-political fence-sitters are going in the bin with the people who hate me, because I can't trust them not to turn on me at some point.

If you've ever thought you might like to go viral online, I promise you that you don't want to.
I've spent my day deleting hundreds of vile comments on tiktok because I dared say I don't print with sticker mule.

In case any of you lovely humans would like to comment to put me back where I belong...

TikTok - Make Your Day

Made a new sticker for my etsy.
I'm never sure if things I make will sell, I just make what's bouncing around in my head and figure maybe somebody like me will relate to it.

Social media has become a place where you can't openly say someone's work impacted you without somebody popping up to scream "but they were a bad person!".
Two things can be true at once. Someone's work can have an impact on your life, and they can also have had terrible opinions you might not have even been aware of.
Commented on a tiktok about #TractorSupply saying I have a backyard birding hobby I'll be buying supplies for elsewhere now. As it turns out, when you don't want to support poor values, it makes people that hold them super mad
I don't think I've ever made more internet strangers angry

If you send me hate mail, all I do is screenshot it and mark it as spam.

I'm guessing this person isn't Jewish. Otherwise, they should know there are plenty of non-zion and anti-zion jews. There's a large synagogue in Chicago that is. There's a whole community in New York that is. There are many views across the diaspora. We are not a monolith.
This isn't about capitalism. This is about preventing people like this from using my identity as a Jewish person as justification for a genocide.

Visit your state parks, folks.
You never know what's out there waiting for you.
