here’s a redraw of a thing i did in march 2016, but i actually started this redraw in october 2017 so i guess it’s not really accurate to current skill level fksjkjsdhf
old art:
yooo everybody. my mom and i were goofing around and found this seriously FUCKED UP site. all your information, (phone number, nam, address even) is available for 2.99. like everything. please watch this video on how to remove it. (im not sure if it’s there for minors, but if you’ve ever owned/rented a house you’re definitely there. it’s worth checking it out to make sure.)

fucked up website: http://www.spokeo.com/
also, if you’ve lived in more than one place/state it has you multiple times, remove all of your profile things. (it had my mom 4 times, all over our state. even from when she lived in a house 9 years ago.)
one hard pill to swallow (that i had to learn myself) is that in order to actually learn coping skills and progress with living successfully with your mental illness is that you have to take action. whether that’s going to therapy or removing yourself from toxic enviornments/people, living your life solely for yourself or whatever. you can’t sit around venting forever and expect it will change. theres only so much understanding and patience that others around you will have. sometimes mental illness is a burden on others. it’s a burden when you have access to help and choose not to take it. sometimes it’s exhausting. there’s no magic day where it will all fall together. you have to actively make that magic.
/\ exactly. Amazon users and Prime users in particular are gonna get notifications and promos for the leadup to prime day or as Amazon’s method of luring you in or distracting you from the strike, IGNORE IT. Don’t buy anything, don’t open the app or the website today, don’t give them your business until the strikers demands are met. If you feel so inclined, take to social media and tell them that you’ll be avoiding using their services in reverence of the strike.
CORRECTION: The Amazon strike is actually taking place July 16-18, set to disrupt the Prime Day sale. That’s when it’s most important to support the strike. Keep up the boycott!
(Thanks to caustictickingoftheclock for correcting me!)
Workers for the online retail giant Amazon are being threatened with the sack if they take four separate days off sick, even if they have a doctor’s note, an undercover Sunday Times investigation...
‘The retailer, which last year made more than £6bn of revenues in Britain, has a disciplinary system under which points are accrued for illness. Workers are issued a penalty point for each episode of sickness.
Workers are told that more than one point will result in a “series of counselling and disciplinary meetings” and between four and six points can result in dismissal.
In one case, a woman who spent three days in hospital with a kidney infection was docked two points, reduced to one on appeal, despite providing a hospital note.
The system has been revealed in an investigation by The Sunday Times at Amazon’s sorting depot in Dunfermline, Scotland.
The undercover reporter was paid £7.35 per hour by an agency that supplies workers to Amazon, but was left with less than the minimum wage after paying £10 for the agency’s bus which took her to the site 40 miles from her home in Glasgow.
It emerged this weekend that some low-paid workers are camping out in woodland near the sorting depot to avoid paying the bus costs and ensure they are left with more than the minimum wage…
The reporter obtained a job with PMP Recruitment, one of the two main agencies that hires and supervises workers at the Dunfermline depot. The investigation found:
Workers being threatened with dismissal if they accrued too many points for illness, late attendance or absence, or for making too many errors or failing to hit productivity targets.
A claim from a worker in Amazon’s on-site first-aid clinic that workers were under pressure to hit targets and were suffering injuries in the rush to collect products
Workers were expected to cover more than 10 miles a day in the warehouse collecting items, but water dispensers to ensure they avoided dehydration were regularly empty
The reporter was told she had to sign an opt-out of the working time directive, which limits weekly hours to 48, in order to get a job.
The reporter was employed as a “temporary warehouse operative” at Amazon’s vast plant in Fife. She worked in the “picking” department, which involved retrieving items from across several floors of the sprawling warehouse, according to orders displayed on a handheld scanner she was given. She worked at least 10 hours a day, with an unpaid 30-minute lunch break and two 15-minute paid breaks….
Under the system set out in the Amazon temporary associate handbook, half a point is issued to recruits who are late to work or late back from a break; one point for “one period of sickness”; and three points for “no call, no show”. The undercover reporter was told that anyone who was more than 30 seconds late in arriving at work or returning after a break would be subject to the half-point penalty.
Workers were also told that if they made more than one error a week in collecting items or failed to hit productivity targets they could be subject to a disciplinary process, which could result in dismissal.’
Support the Amazon general strike today, July 10th - do not buy from Amazon! Even if your intention is to make some kind of statement with your purchase - don’t, this is (as other bloggers before me have said) the equivalent of crossing a picket line and still handing them profit!
AND if your in a Prime trial they’ll withdraw the money even if you didn’t agree to purchasing and only warn you with one email ahead of time so watch out
Amazon workers in Spain have called for a transnational strike from July 10th to 17th, because Amazon has been avoiding accountability for its labour rights violations by merely shifting the work (and the human rights abuses Amazon inflicts on their workers) to non-striking countries, each time a strike occurs. So now would be a good time to cancel that Prime account and tell Amazon exactly why. Also, don’t buy anything from it.
not giving your money to a business that’s currently striking is literally an essential part of a strike.
Amazon brings in over 34 BILLION dollars every day. Even a one-day boycott could mean massive leverage for the strikers – especially if the boycott coincided with one of the most profitable days Amazon expected to have all year, as this one does.
Do not visit Amazon.com on 10 July 2018 (or July 15-16 in the US)!
While we’re talking about effective boycotting, boycotting Amazon means more than boycotting Amazon, because Amazon has subsidiaries that also help it make money. If you’re going to boycott Amazon, you also need to boycott the following subsidiaries:
AWS Elemental
AbeBooks
Alexa Internet
Audible
Blink Home
Brilliance Audio
ComiXology
CreateSpace
Diapers.com
Double Helix Games
Evi
Fabric.com
GoodReads
IMDb
Junglee
Mobipocket
Ring
Shelfari
Shopbop
Souq.com
TenMarks Education, Inc.
Twitch
Whole Foods Market
Woot
Zappos
A boycott is not effective unless you attack it on all fronts. This is why boycotting things like McDonalds or Coca Cola are so ineffective– they have so many subsidiaries and supporting businesses that they can afford a frontal hit and still make money from its “family” companies.
If you truly want to help this boycott, make sure to boycott Amazon and its subsidiaries.
SO i’ll be selling at anime midwest this weekend, along with my friend and roommate katie (sleepycelestial on instagram)! check out table f9 for this print and others o/
