If we don’t document what’s happening, who will? If you enjoy photography, videography, or writing, practice your craft. Learn how to use your phone without unlocking it, when to film in vertical or horizontal format, or take an art class! Practice, so you’re ready when an important moment happens.

Don’t leave credit sitting at businesses we’re boycotting. It’s like an interest-free loan. Put your Hilton points to work: convert them to flights, donate them to charities, convert them to cash, or use them to book and re-book rooms in places ICE is active. Don’t let them sit on your earned value!

Do you send physical thank you cards? Whenever you’re writing one, send a spare to a politician or activist group you’re grateful for. Use up leftover seasonal cards (ask buy nothing for leftover wedding cards?) and be specific about what you appreciate! Everyone loves a kudo!

If you get a big refund April 15th, it means you loaned the government interest-free money. Adjust your W-2 withholding to withhold less. Aim for no refund, and a bill under $1000 next April. This is not a tax protest. It’s your legal right to adjust withholding.
