Do they not stock ‘Bigotry by Trump’?

I am trying to put together a list of companies that donated to DT in order to not shop with them, and list of companies that donated the other way, so my dollars go to support business with some kind of conscience.
I’m so lucky to have Jez as a mostly safe space with all of you. I found out today at my new job that my job is a safe, good space too. We all met in a room and cried when we got in.
I feel so weird about my white friends on fb. I’m black and made all of my white friends in college and while they are all perfectly nice, not ONE of them has said a thing about the election results. These are the kind of people who don’t have a lot of black friends. I was their token in college so it just feels odd.…
I haven’t been feeling real giffy today, but I think this one sums up my rage and grim determination the best. For all Jezzies, everywhere.
Thank you. I (like so many of us) need this right now. I deleted Facebook last night—even though it’s my link to lots of wonderful people, it’s also anxiety fuel.
I’m really over all the holier-than-thou Facebook posts from privileged assholes about how they don’t care about other people’s politics and they won’t be unfriending people over their views. Like, I’m sorry that I don’t want people who voted against my worth as a human being in my life? ugh.
I deleted my Facebook account today.
To be honest, I’m in the same boat, and I deleted without a hint of remorse. These people aren’t worth my time or energy, nor are they worth yours: all of us are much better off focusing on helping those we can, protecting those we can’t, and making sure that those we can neither help nor protect from themselves…
PLEASE someone make a list of these people. I want to make sure not a fucking cent of my money goes to them and they are followed in shame for the rest of their damn lives.
I’m going to lose it if another smug Republican/Trump fan says, “Well at least you [Californians] got weed.” FUCK YOU. WE’D RATHER HAVE OUR RIGHTS.
i’ve been lurking on jez for a while now (about a year and a half or so?) and i finally made an account yesterday because i wanted somewhere to celebrate a clinton victory. i’m still glad i made the account, because even with the trolls, i’ve been reminded that not everyone in this world is a slimy, untrustworthy…
Last night conjured up a somewhat latent feeling of futility and subservience. When I was like 18 or 19 I got drunk with my boyfriend and melted down in front of him at the realization that no matter what I did, I was female, and therefore weaker, more likely to be physically and otherwise assaulted, raped, doubted,…
Today I registered to volunteer for Planned Parenthood and signed up to make monthly donations to the ACLU.
A Partial List:
Open post! Thank you
We can boycott their movies. I have been boycotting Woody Allen for years, for example.
Yes. As much as I hate to say it, fuck Viggo Mortensen. My jaw fell wide open when I saw his interview on Stephen Colbert’s show. Fuck you, Viggo and you can put that self-righteousness and clear conscience up where the sun don’t shine. Four years is quite a long time for the sun to stop shining...
VIGGO?!? Sonofa...Yeah, nope. I’ll Google, get the info, and then I don’t need to see any movies from these people. I really don’t. Of course, with Jim Crow coming back, I probably won’t be allowed into a decent movie theater, if at all.
Who else? I’m seriously keeping a list because there’s no way I’m going to support any of those asshats at all. I hope they enjoy their moral purity while being protected from the reality of the shitstorm they helped create. And I want her to step away from any anti-death penalty advocacy- she’s not helping the cause…
