Use the icons, join the movement!
SHUTDOWN315
March 15th - shut down the economy!
Buy nothing, go nowhere, use as little electricity and plumbing as possible!
I know it isn't possible for everyone to do everything.
But if you can
-do not go to work or school, keep your kids home from school and daycare
-do not go anywhere, do not drive anywhere, do not spend money anywhere
-use as little utilities as possible, leave the lights off, don't do dishes or laundry, skip the showers and baths, turn your heating down
-don't use any streaming services, don't use google, Facebook, Instagram, threads or any other site that is connected to Meta. Dont use your Kindle, don't even browse Amazon. Use your phone only for calling and texting that day.
We are going for a general strike, a complete shutdown!
Due to financial, physical or emotional constraints, many people will not be able to do everything on the list. That is understandable! If you cannot do everything on the list, please do what you can! And please spread the word!
I know it's the ides of March, and that is a big day on tumblr. If you don't want to miss it, then maybe ONLY be on tumblr that day!
Read books, play boardgames, do crafts or puzzles. Walk outside. Download fanfic or games that you can play without connecting to the net. Write. Give your pets, and/or your kids lots of concentrated time and attention. Rent movies from your library through Hoopla or whatever way your library system has. Organize a drawer. Talk to or text your friends and family, ALL of them! Plan out your wardrobe or meals for the next week. Download all 900 pages of Project 2025 and read it to see why we need to do whatever we can to take back our power! Protest in whatever way you can!

There was a grassroots-organized “No Kings On President’s Day” protest in Boston last Monday, and I’ve been meaning to post pictures I took of my favorite signs! Here they are:






and the one I made, which tore in the intense winds as soon as I unrolled it, which led to me running down a side street, borrowing a stapler from the nice girl at the Planet Fitness front counter, and doing some emergency poster surgery before running back to the crowd. Picture is pre-injury:

Will these protests have any sort of meaningful political impact? I hope so, but more important to me is the psychological effect on the average person— normal people showing up to protest, and more normal people passing by and seeing the marches and crowds, hearing the chants, seeing the handmade signs. Most Americans live so much of our political lives in isolation, doomscrolling on social media and Posting, and I know that when I scroll and post too much for too long, I feel shriveled and hopeless. Being out in the freezing cold in the midst of a shouting, marching crowd feels electrifying and hopeful, and very human and powerful.

We have to hit them where it hurts, drain their profits and force them to listen to us.

I don't want to be the first one to say it but it needs to happen some time and it's better sooner rather than later. (I am also aware that some people are already on board and protesting currently which is awesome dw this isn't about you, keep up the good work.)
It's great that we're talking about what is going on right now, but we need to start making plans.
We need to decide exactly what we want to happen to the two of them. We need to decide who we want to push to take things over after the fact. We need to all know who is involved and responsible for helping them plan this coup and hold them accountable as well.
Organizing isn't just about the protests we have to plan for what we want to happen after. This is vital to our cause right now; a unified message and plan for our goals and continued existence.
