Feel free to add to this list!

When it comes to music specifically, I recommend getting an mp3 player! There's a few websites out there that will let you download music (including your playlists!) directly from Spotify into the player :)
or alternitivly find some extension to block the ads on spot

Reminder to everyone who might read this post:
Remember to not attack people who are not boycotting for whatever reason!! I strongly believe that everyone should always boycott when possible. However, if the case is something like someone has to get their groceries from Walmart, just leave them be. It's about harm reduction, not perfection. Attacking someone will never work on making them change, especially if they're struggling to make ends meet.
Disclaimer: This is mostly about food and other essentials when money is tight. Also: if you're in actual need of clothing, Shein/Amazon is not the way to go.. hit up the thrift. (but still don't attack someone!!!)

it's extremely disturbing to me how the people above us, like the rich and companies are evil. they control the world, they're everywhere, and yet they support the worst stuff. there's no way to escape, were all doomed
we're not all doomed if we stay optimistic! one day we'll kill off all the greedy CEOs

cal ⁉¿?
Boycotting is so hard sometimes-- because even when you actively avoid these companies and switch to an alternative you'll find out THEY'RE OWNED BY THE SAME COMPANY you're boycotting...
LITERALLY !!! its a tough world out there, all you have to do is survive i guess
