Adding that, I'm pretty much only talking about ebooks. Print is 1% of my income so it's rarely on my mind. It's also the least profitable, and most difficult.
So yeah. This is about ebooks. If you're a paperback person, ask your bookstore to order indie books from Ingram, or really just do Amazon because, they really have made that part streamlined especially for international orders.

It's that time of year where folks start talking about boycotting Amazon (which I am 100% onboard with). Please very much do that.
I'm always torn when the common path of that protest is "Shop indie bookstores”
Yes, BUT. Most indie bookstores don't stock indie authors.
Shop indie author websites. Shop Amazon competitors for ebooks. At a minimum, ask your local indie store to order the indie book you want. Colleen Hoover is doing just fine.

Albanese’s report said the ICJ’s ruling “effectively qualifies the occupation as an act of aggression … Consequently, any dealings that support or sustain the occupation and its associated apparatus may amount to complicity in an international crime under the Rome Statute.”

Free idea: a browser extension that tells you if the website you're on (and what parts and portion of it) is being served from AWS.
Amazon boycotts are great and all, but let's be honest-- AWS is the cash cow, and we hardly ever know when we're using it.

Since last weekend, I started a personal #Amazon boycott. I'm not going to buy through them unless there is no other way. I'm looking first to see if I can buy from the manufactor online, if not, try to find the product in a local shop, even if it is a bit more expensive, I'll buy it from them. Worse case, research online shops, but avoid at all costs the dropshippers.

For obvious reasons, I'm no longer buying e-books from Amazon. I found a bunch of nice DRM-free PDFs on Thalia, but now I'm considering a book that does have DRM (publisher's requirement, I guess).
Anyone has experience with de-DRMing Thalia books? (I think it's Adobe DRM, but not entirely sure.)

Amazon Boycott
There has been an organized amazon boycott underway for the last week. It started on the 7th of March and ends today on the 14th. I have been as successful as I can be in joining the boycott. I haven’t shopped at amazon or knowingly shopped at a site that amazon owns. I haven’t watched anything on amazon prime video. I haven’t knowingly used the news services they own, or even used imdb. The most difficult part was not using audible while driving in and out of Boston and to and from work this week. I am a bit of an audiobook junkie when I am driving and not touching my audible account was a little tough.
The question I have is, did I unknowingly use amazon web services? I think a huge chunk of the internet is hosted by amazon. There’s a good chance that I went somewhere that is paying money to amazon for their web hosting needs. I don’t think I could have avoided that at all. Hell, for all I know this very page is hosted by amazon. I hope not, but who knows?
For the things that I could actually control though, I have managed to play along. I just have to continue not giving amazon any business until midnight tonight. I can do it.
In the meantime, here’s a photo a day picture of a cat. Hopefully Flickr, the site I use to host the images you see on this goofy little page, is not hosted by the amazons. That would be disappointing.

It’s been so easy! I think I will continue indefinitely.
What I figured out in the last week is that many of my Amazon purchases are just impulse purchases of stuff I don’t need!

Those who come over to tell you that they've *cleverly* managed to avoid Amazon this season but don't tell you how *exactly* they did it are...
... wait for it...
assholes!
Don't get me wrong. I'm avoiding Amazon too, but I don't wrap myself in smug self-satisfaction. I know it is not an easy task.
