  • Ugh, iRobot too. So now I’ve got to replace my Ring doorbell and get rid of my expensive robot vacuum and mop. Damnit.

    Oh well, I can vacuum and mop by hand.

    Fortunately, our Alexa devices are gone, Audible has been cancelled, our Kindles have been replaced, Amazon Prime, Amazon Kids, and Amazon Prime Video subscriptions are cancelled, and I just got my old photos copied down from Amazon Photos yesterday. So, I think I’m good to delete my Amazon account altogether.

    I didn’t see thriftbooks on the list, so that’s a relief.

  • My only problem with the “weird” verbiage is that it was far too soft.

    The GOP is far beyond “weird” and well into full-blown Fascist territory.

    But we wouldn’t want to “alienate” anybody by speaking facts!

    I’m happy with the service, but I don’t know how it compares in this particular domain, compared to the likes of Proton, Tuta, et al.

  • Y’all, stop buying shit from Amazon, completely. That’s where you start.

    Bezos has money because we continue to give it to him. So, the first order of business is to simply stop spending money with him.

    As in, forever.

    Find an alternative vendor, or even schlep on down to a physical store if you need to.

    • Talk of a "Feb 28 Economic Blackout" is spreading on social media. What is it?

  • Well, they need to harden the fuck up and embrace a little bit of inconvenience, if they wish to keep our Republic.

    In France, they set shit on fire. In America, we wring our hands about using a retailer other than Amazon.

    Dan Bongino, sadly, is right: we really are a bunch of pussies.

  • Just buy shit elsewhere, Jesus Christ.

    Where did you buy stuff before Amazon? Just do that.

  • Really, that’s still weak. Why go back to Amazon at all after a week or two? Anything you can find on Amazon, you can purchase elsewhere.

    I say, delete your goddamned Amazon account already. Don’t give them one more penny. You certainly don’t have to. They’re not the only retailer in town for fuck’s sake.

    It’s the very least we can do.

  • A boycott will be more effective if we laser-focus our efforts:

    1. Focus on Amazon, Tesla (anything Musky), & Meta
    2. Make the boycott permanent

    As for me, I’ve done my part. I will never shop Amazon again, or purchase from any online store that uses Amazon for shipping, and all my Meta accounts have been permanently deleted. Done.

    Why restrict it to a few days or a week “blackout” or whatever? That’s weak sauce. Everything you can find on Amazon, you can find elsewhere. Stop giving them money.

  • Man, I’m torn on this one.

    We have two grocery stores in our exurban area.

    Kroger, as a corporation, contributes to politicians of both US parties in roughly equal measure. Less than ideal (zero contributions), but not too bad I guess. But, they do have an obnoxious customer loyalty card program. Boo!

    Publix, on the other hand, doesn’t have a customer loyalty card program at all. Yay! But, the corporation and their leadership contribute HEAVILY to the new Trumpy GOP, Matt Gaetz in particular. So, fuck them.

    I’m boycotting Publix. Lesser of two evils I guess.

    I really wish we had a locally-owned mom ’n pop grocery. I’d pay a premium for that.

    I’m in rural TN, and the Trump cult is embedded deep here.
