What’s our logic?

It might seem counterintuitive to buy conveniences when the economy is crashing and people’s needs are at an all-time high, but investing in your own stability helps you keep fighting. If there is a small luxury you can probably swing, but feel guilty about, ask yourself: could I leverage this for resistance? Would it clear up some time, or some emotional energy to fight back? Would it allow me to do new or different things to be effective? would it help me help someone?

If you get a cooking convenience, could you share meals with a neighbor? Take the time to read a book about activism? If you get your car detailed, would you finally feel comfortable offering rides to protests? If you buy take-out, will that let you get to the meeting tonight? Could you pay a neighbor to take on a regular chore like mowing the lawn? What can you do to clear the path for activism?
