SEPT 14 / 20 

trying to get back into the swing of online classes but its definitely a lot harder than usual. i feel like im doing a lot of the teachings myself as my profs are lacking and i cant separate my school and home life. does anyone have any advice on finding that balance?? im really trying to avoid that mid term burnout meltdown haha

Stop buying from Muji.

It’s being reported that Muji uses cotton produced by Uyghur Muslims in Chinese concentration and labor camps, specifically in Xinjiang. Obviously, the atrocities being done to the Uyghur Muslims are horrific, and a company profiting off of said atrocities is disgusting.

I know Muji is wildly popular on studyblr, but I’m asking you to think about real humans being forced into labor camps. As an average citizen, we only have two ways of imposing our power: by voting and by being deliberate with our money. Do not give Muji your money.

Do not support Muji. Do not support concentration camps. Do not support the violation of civil rights. Stay aware, read the news, and be a critical consumer.

Please correct me if I'm wrong

But a good alternative to Muji is Sostern Grene. It's a chain but is still a privatly ( & family! ) owned business that has a strict code of conduct for their suppliers with regards to health & safety, forced labor, child labor, environment, animal welfare & denial of factory inspections. Their code of conduct can be found here :

If anyone else has any other ethical alternatives for stationary please let me know!!!

STUDYBLRS! LET’S PHASE OUT HARMFUL BRANDS LIKE MUJI!

SHOP ETHICALLY OR LOCALLY/SMALL BUSINESS!!

Yoseka Stationary is one of my personal faves right now! I just ordered a journal from them and was sooo tempted by all the other stuff they have, ranging from classic Japanese brands to small artists. they’re based in NYC and I live on the west coast but my package got delivered pretty quickly. everything is so high quality, and they’re family-owned. check them out!
