Reminder: Do not buy from Amazon or even open the website on 10 July 2018, in solidarity with the transnational strike.

Amazon workers in Spain have called for a transnational strike because Amazon has been avoiding accountability for its labour rights violations by merely shifting the work (and the human rights abuses Amazon inflicts on their workers) to non-striking countries, each time a strike occurs. If there is widespread striking transnationally, Amazon will have no choice but to recognize the strikers’ demands in order to keep their facilities functioning.

Our job as allies is to support the strike by avoiding using the Amazon website or purchasing anything from Amazon for as long as the strike continues. A mass boycott of the site, coinciding with the strike, will strengthen the workers’ bargaining position and could be crucial to Amazon workers gaining back basic rights in a variety of countries.

Please remember this includes subsidiaries like Twitch and Audible.

This is tomorrow!

Please do not shop on Amazon tomorrow.

Please do not stream Amazon music or video tomorrow

Please do not order from sites using Amazon Payments tomorrow.

For one day, please, avoid it.

As a worker-for-rent who’s worked during strikes or demonstrations – PLEASE, if there’s a strike DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THAT COMPANY ON THAT DAY IF THERE’S ANY WAY TO AVOID IT. Not only do folks like me get an easy day, it’s also a powerful act of class solidarity.

Also, if you’re a social media type of person, please tweet and comment at the company that you’re choosing not to use their services, in solidarity of the strike. Make sure they know.

cw abuse post about misterhayden

birdhugs69:

so I’d been meaning to put this outline I made of what happened to me starting in late 2010/early 2011 when tumblr user misterhayden and I were together.

I want to also state before you read/are a follower of mine:

– don’t follow me if you follow him or are friends with him if I find out I’ll block you

– please don’t message me for further details/receipts of what happened. I have receipts but they’re triggering for me to search through and if you need anything further then you obviously don’t give a shit about what happened and you can choose to keep believing he’s a decent person. I literally don’t have the energy to appease people who want to believe he’s changed because he has not been accountable at all. Even releasing this info I know he’ll probably hear I made a post about it and I don’t want contact with him anymore. 

– know that it is very, very awful for me to even see his art on my dash and talk about him so seriously please don’t contact him telling him about this because it’s my mental health on the line.

– people have confronted him before telling him about what I’ve said and he usually tells them to come to me to rehash what happened to strangers which is really shitty of him and triggering to me. He also tells people he’s changed and I was abusive too. This is really common with abusers and if you believe him don’t bother talking to me. I am not abusive and I was not abusive to him. He’s a liar. Abusers don’t often admit they were abusive. Why would he?

anyways, here’s a brief outline of what happened to me. Again, he has not been accountable, and barely admits he was abusive. You can reblog, just please leave me alone if you don’t believe me. It won’t undo what happened.
