Today, February 28, is an economic blackout day here in the US.
It's a day to measure the impact consumers can have if we boycott the corporate machine that influences and maligns the lives of hard working Americans.
Included in the blackout are certain social media sites such as Facebook and X (Twitter). I'm guessing that other Meta owned apps, such as Instagram and WhatsApp are also included. I may make an exception for WhatsApp since that is the primary app I used to communicate with my expat kids.
While it is encouraged not to make any purchases today -- in person nor online -- exceptions can be made to support locally owned small businesses, but use of credit or debit cards is discouraged.
It's a little ironic that most of my readers come from linking this blog to Facebook which won't be happening today. Oh well, there's not much here worth reading anyway.
