I live in the UK. I inspect the origin of every product I buy in the supermarkets and other stores. I boycotted goods from South Africa during the apartheid years. I have boycotted goods from Israel for many years. I have now added the US to the list.
From my local WhatsApp group:
The Welsh Government are doing a consultation on its pro-trans schools policy. UK Gender Critical activists are upset and are trying to brigade it to push it in an anti-trans direction. Please fill out the consultation to try to reinforce the pro-trans stance.

The deadline is 31 July 2025.
NB: Please only respond if you live in Wales! If you don't but want to help, please boost this and share it on other social networks. Thank you. ✨
If you need some joy in your day, this is my gift to you. Jon Batiste is a gem of a human being. He is also massively talented.
In this interview from 2023 with Chris Wallace, Jon talks about the limitations genres put on music. And THEN he genre hops through part of a Beethoven piece on the fly.
It’s so good. And Chris’ face is priceless. He’s almost giddy.
