If you have a Kindle and "bought" ebooks over the years, you have a week to download and back up your files before Amazon blocks you from doing that.

There are scripts (see the thread below) that will bulk-download.

It's a reminder that Amazon is a rapacious monopolist.

Joyful Street Art (35 Photos) | STREET ART UTOPIA

David Zinn has a special way of making sidewalks and streets feel like magical places. With just chalk, charcoal, and a big imagination, he creates fun characters that seem to come to life. You might find them hiding in cracks, climbing up curbs, or peeking out of manhole covers. His art is temporary, but it…

Happy #WinterSolstice all! 💙☀️

All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

This so far is a LOT of fun, definitely a nice twist on the classic murder-mystery genre.
