#microactivism

[bumblebeeappletree]

What is microactivism? It's my motto! It's doing small, everyday actions that make a difference. From being zero waste to fighting for human rights, we can do small forms of activism every single day. In fact ,you can even do activism from home! Check out more about what is activism and activism tips below :)

Underneath the cut will be some suggestions in her comments on the YouTube channel for other possible micro activism

Plant native plants

Join/make a buy nothing group that includes food so nothing goes to waste

Repair clothes, machines, items

Explain your low waste/conscious habits

Talk to your local business on ways they could cut down on waste or BYO programs

Using junk mail to make your own paper

Using junk mail as kitty litter

Have a more balanced diet and eat less meat (or whatever your body can handle)

Grow your own food/herbs if possible

Use alternate transportation (biking/walking/car pool/public transportation)

Using smart switches/power strips. (Only certain outlets would only turn on if the outlet it’s connected to turns on in a power strip.)

Sign petitions

Upcycle

Donate, even if it’s a low amount of money

As I explained to my 62 year old coworker while teaching her basic mechanics of crocheting, “it give us something tangible we can control”while the phones rang incessantly in our mostly empty office.

I wasn’t the only one left off the invite for our annual luncheon to parade our services. The CFO wasn’t even given the location and address, but everyone else leadership had to walk a past me as I found some meaningful way to be present.

I justified it last year, but this year, it’s absurd— why not lean into turning myself into an octopus?

Next Millie randomly returned after the luncheon furthering her chaotic behavior today— leaving the office 15 minutes into her day for an hour to take a personal call while her purse and office were left wide open, for starters. I asked if she was good getting home for her HVAC issues she listed on her calendar. Clueless how I knew. I announced I was going to check on my own heater. Well since that’s the case, you’re may go”. 👀 😆 I wasn’t asking. The office was empty and the city is closed for the storm. 🤦🏻‍♀️

I’m still restless. Emergency McGiver heaters have been arranged and this damn ugly cabinet is getting a once over. Gotta keep dancing while Rome burns, right?

at @usps.official posting 45 letters for @votefwd #thebigsend on Saturday :) Got giddy a few times using my new @copicmultiliner pens (bday gift to myself), individualizing each 💌... I’m sure the colours r gonna convince a few extra folks in PA & FL to make the effort to get out n vote on or before November 3 #electionday2020 🌈🤞SWIPE to read my “I’m voting in this election because...” answer #firsttimevoting //// Had a GREAT time hosting #bigsendopenmic a few weeks ago too, together we wrote 133 letters while chillin n listenin to songs from @prettyfiremusic @chelsea_blake_music @miapixley @maishalani @metaman23 Mike Rufo & others, plus a cameo from @alfredhoward23 who read his poem “I Love America” n made us all goosebump or cry. JOY & ACTIVISM can go hand in hand 🙏♥️I hope my friends reclaim some effin time from social media these coming 2 weeks & make some calls or rock some #microactivism to help #GOTV in some creative ways that work for them 🐬. . . many lanes y’all, just don’t stand thar pickin yer nose on the sidelines. /// Is “chillaxctivism” a thing yet? 🌱 I love you!!!! 💕 –A Maddy mostly off social media these days 🤓🐙 https://www.instagram.com/p/CGnfgIKhpLD/?igshid=1v4i05r6he88v
