Continued thread

Maybe we aim to treat #Easter as a season of rewarding local businesses or maybe those often unsung heroes that provide us #FOSS or media that we enjoy? (Maybe even the local church?) Fifty days of spending money that way and not on big corporations? (Perhaps using money we’ve put aside during Lent?)

Another #boycott thought: in classical #Christian practice, Wednesdays and Fridays are days for #fasting. The fasting discipline of those days is extended for the 40 days of #Lent (excluding Sundays). So maybe, for Lent, we could observe a practice like today’s on every Wednesday and Friday for the season of Lent?

One thing to also consider is that #Easter is meant to be 50 days of feasting as a sort of counter-balance to Lent. So we’d need to figure out what that would look like.
