Looking cute today. Right after leaving fred meyers and learning about the fun policies that will give SCABs more than people that have worked there for years. #dontcrossthepicketline https://www.instagram.com/p/B2HzUzrJYnu/?igshid=zff3ges53zyt

Its so weird seeing people give other, assumingly, adults advice on what to do during the strike. Go to you local library or type in what you want and literally just avoid Am*zon. I dont blame anyone for not knowing about discord and other places being owned by Am*zon but it shouldn't be this hard to stop using something that involves working Wi-Fi, internet access, money and an address for two days. And you definetly dont need an entire site babysitting you about it. #dontcrossthepicketline

check out @etsy.strike for this image and other ways to learn about why etsy sellers are striking and how you can support their efforts. i particularly recommend clicking the link in their bio to access a petition you can sign and share, cuz that petion also details exactly what has happened and what sellers are demanding with this strike. here are just a few quotes from that piece:

- "Etsy made bank over the pandemic. In 2020, they more than doubled their gross marketplace sales. In 2021, they kept those pandemic sales gains and broke their 2020 record by $3.2 billion dollars."

- "They followed up these record pandemic gains by turning around and sticking it to their sellers. On April 11, 2022, they plan to increase our transaction fees by 30%. Etsy’s last fee increase was in July 2018. If this new one goes through, our basic fees to use the platform will have more than doubled in less than four years."

- "Etsy was founded with a vision of "keeping commerce human" by "democratizing access to entrepreneurship." As a result, people who have been marginalized in traditional retail economies -- women, people of color, LGBTQ people, neurodivergent people, etc. -- make up a significant proportion of Etsy's sellers. For many of us, Etsy makes up our main source of income."

- "We’re going on strike on April 11 to call on Etsy to hold itself accountable to sellers and buyers. Sellers will put their shops on vacation mode in protest. Buyers can show support by agreeing to boycott Etsy from April 11-18."
