@cmccullough I ditched it in January, not missing it yet! #fuckamazon #fuckbezos
This was in the latest bookshop.org newsletter:

"Where You Shop Matters
Amazon doesn’t care about books. They don’t care about maintaining a healthy literary ecosystem where new voices are discovered and important ideas are shared. They don’t care about sponsoring your local little league team or hosting a summer reading challenge designed to keep children learning. They want you to purchase things (so. many. things.) and they don’t care when you return it and it becomes trash.

Independent bookstores aren’t just bookstores. They are pillars of their communities and supporting them means supporting all of the incredible work they do beyond selling books.

They’re invaluable. Amazon is not."

Amen to all of this. If you have an Amazon account, end it, and support your local independent book shop instead.

Progressives waste time pretending our salvation is “messaging.” Our problem is that we have no way to distribute messages that can be heard above the near-ubiquity of MAGA media. 100,000 Substacks and TikToks are not a message delivery system. They’re a message diffusion system.
