bc i see lots of writers/game designers/printmakers trying to figure out what they can do, considering one of the targeted BDS companies is HP, working to ensure your print products and books are not printed with HP printers, ink, or related technologies is an actionable option
- they/them
they made me in a lab & probably regret that || art @androgyne

in reply to @vin's post:
mhm, basically damaging HPs reputation and challenging campus / university / library contracts with HP and HP products, plus businesses using them, is what the BDS movement recommends
i have to do a ton of printing at work and am making a mental note to avoid HP when i have to replace the printer and labelmaker
yes i was thinking about this too, and maybe getting together an email template to send to print suppliers asking them to divest
i think it may be a good idea to also reach out to the writers for gaza list if they can ask for the signatories to join a writers against HP campaign
i just posted in another comment exactly what i just tweeted at them, pls feel free to use it or similar
here's what i ended up sending my supplier: https://pastebin.com/rHgR2aqm
i also reached out to Writers Against the War on Gaza, and asked if they would be interested in reaching out to all the writers who signed on in solidarity to participate in the BDS boycott against HP and HP products; a writers movement against printing their work with HP. i had signed on when they first opened up, but if you havent signed yet please do, and maybe also reach out and encourage a similar next step in demonstration!!
