Children’s novels, to me, spoke, and still speak, of hope. They say: look, this is what bravery looks like. This is what generosity looks like. They tell me, through the medium of wizards and lions and talking spiders, that this world we live in is a world of people who tell jokes and work and endure. Children’s books say: the world is huge. They say: hope counts for something. They say: bravery will matter, wit will matter, empathy will matter, love will matter.

One big thing giving me hope right now is how many people are switching from major brands. It’s damn near impossible to escape the evil oligarchy. It’s so much work! We’re all exhausted and way over capacity so it takes a lot to make people seek out inconvenient alternatives to Amazon, Spotify, Etsy, Target, Harry Potter, etc.

This year however, people have finally Had It. Every day I hear more people switching up their habits and suggesting alternatives. It’s galvanizing to see industry titans take huge hits to their profits.

I’m living for this momentum.

Reblog with companies you’re actually excited about!

I really love Alibris as an alternative to Amazon.
