November 27 is Buy Nothing Day, a day to escape the consumerist madness of the holiday season by simply pledging to not take part in it. Avoid the holiday madness. Don’t get up at 4 am to make it the “After Thanksgiving Sale” at the local superstore. Read a book, take a bike ride, play a game, shoot some hoops, call old friends, meditate, do volunteer work or find some other activity that doesn’t add to the waste in our garbage dumps, exploit workers in the developing world or contribute further to the mountains of consumer debt so many struggle with.

Quick, unedited posts about what matters to me.
