Being a little behind on getting my Llewellyn's Astrological Calendar this year, when I noticed a huge discounted price on Barnes & Noble's site, I ordered an extra one. I saw a huge box on my porch and I thought, "Surely they didn't send a calendar in this big box!". When I lifted it, there was a flat one (the usual calendar/album size) beneath it. I wondered what the heck did I order??? Getting them inside and opening them, I found that the calendars had been shipped separately, advertisements and all! The second one was securely packed, as you can see, by the packaging padding. This is just ludicrous and an exact example of what's wrong with our capitalist system. Who cares, right?!? It's only a tree. It's only a bit of land. It's only one stream. It's only one area of air. It's only part of the hemisphere. It's our only planet. #thereisnoplanet #overpackaging #overpacked #waste #wasteful #excess #ludicrous #ridiculous #packagingoverload #packaging #llewellynscalender #barnesandnoble #imboycottingamazon #taxevaders #netflixtoo #walmartjustbecause #payyourtaxes (at Algiers, New Orleans) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwBlHHAg14k/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1iikv2vu6ygpe
