If you have enough privilege that

a) you can get everything you need to have a comfortable holiday season without needing to take advantage of sales, and

b) “buying nothing” is a political statement for you

    Me too! Poverty fistbump of solidarity. My ex could start his shopping tonight though, apparently he has spending cash.

    I am buying nothing today because I *literally have no money*, not even for a fucking coffee, so yeah. :/
