As we #boycott American fascism, we also need to boycott Lifelabs.

It was just bought by an American company, and it has been a Canadian privatized health-care diagnostics company for decades, competing with the public healthcare system for profit. These fuckers need to go.

Where should you get your lab work done? Your local hospital outpatient lab...such labs are rarely promoted to the community.

Tourists are ready to #boycott the #US. ‘There is easy irony in this tourist backlash. Trump…has [broken] the 1st rule of #tourism: create an alluring & welcoming destination. …

The recent surge in boycott and divestment campaigns targeting US companies is a chance to connect struggles. Join us and stand against colonialism, racist supremacy and the denial of rights in all its forms, whether in Palestine or beyond – and focus your efforts on the most complicit corporations.

Just ordered a Kobo Libra Colour so now the only money I’m paying that asshole Bezos is for a couple of S3 buckets that I haven’t had time to move off of AWS.

Very much looking forward to the time when his fascist collaborator ass doesn’t get a single euro cent from me.

(Another plus: Kobo works with Overdrive and I checked and Dublin libraries support it so you should be able to check out library books directly on the device. And I’m quite looking forward to a little bit of colour and the notetaking features.)
