Holding an indie movie release hostage and demanding that a show the creator was just an acting job in stay in the top 10 for 30 days is bad enough, but they 1) didn't get contracts to let it be released outside the usa and 2) They didn't advertise it properly and 3) They made him sign NDA's so he couldnt properly advertise it himself is some of the most heinous bullshit and i hate that this doesn't even rank in the top ten worst things Amazon has done

being forced to watch advertisements on a streaming service that I'm fucking paying for, coupled with the fact that they are quite literally the most disgusting vile capitalistic nonsense, kind of want to burn down civilization

Amazon sucks yet again
Amazon Pay just sent out an email saying that they're going to start withholding payouts according a seller's "refund and dispute rate"
SOOOOO instead of trying to fix the issue of shitty scammers automatically being refunded because you never listen to the seller even when we have proof of customers scamming us, you're going to just withhold our payouts so you don't have to pay as many bank fees when you take our money back to give to the scammers.
As if you guys don't already KNOW which customers are frequently scamming sellers 🙄
Fuck you. Fuck you and your continued quest to squash every fucking small business out there including the ones selling through YOUR service and paying outrageous fees to do so.
Fuck PayPal too while we're at it because they side with customers almost 100% of the time too. Even with proof of scamming.

I'm so mad. I ordered Aida for a blackwork stitching project , and amazon delivered it 2 hours early so someone stole it. I love the convenience of fast delivery times, I just wish that they were accurate???
I was so excited to get started on the project when I woke up, I thought I could get a cute little coffee and breakfast then have my package delivered and start but apparently I have to reorder 25$ of fucking craft supplies because Amazon can't be assed to tell me it's gonna show up while I'm still asleep.

I know it’s slightly veering from the topic, but during the height of the pandemic, my mom’s balloon business was hired to put up some different balloon decorations within the local Amazon warehouses. In the warehouses, they had several cameras in place that detected how close two people were. They told us if the cameras detected we were within 6 feet of each other, even during set up, the system would ding the warehouse and the manager who hired us would get in trouble, as well as security.
Amazon and cameras are fucking terrifying. It’s like Big Brother.

I promise I'm working on more parts of Love Is A Dagger! My partner just finished graduate school this week and we're moving next week and I still have to work my part-time job since my writing income is Doo Doo© compared to what it was before ãmazøn terminated my account last year, so I'm up to my eyeballs in ~stress~ and I want nothing more than to write soft and angsty and progressively more horny Loki fic but life is too much atm

BACK THIIIISSSS! I'm definitely getting this book when it comes out because I am real tired of the enshittification of the Internet and social media.
Also, if you don't already know about the fantasticness that is Libro.fm for audiobooks, check it out! (ps - that is my affiliate link)
They just announced that they're selling audiobooks internationally now, and they always support indie booksellers when you buy.
And finally: Back this Kickstarter!
Kickstarting a book to end enshittification, because Amazon will not carry it
Tumblr media
My next book is The Internet Con: How to Seize the Means of Computation: it’s a Big Tech disassembly manual that explains how to disenshittify the web and bring back the old good internet. The hardcover comes from Verso on Sept 5, but the audiobook comes from me — because Amazon refuses to sell my audio:
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/doctorow/the-internet-con-how-to-seize-the-means-of-computation
Amazon owns Audible, the monopoly audiobook platform that controls >90% of the audio market. They require mandatory DRM for every book sold, locking those books forever to Amazon’s monopoly platform. If you break up with Amazon, you have to throw away your entire audiobook library.
That’s a hell of a lot of leverage to hand to any company, let alone a rapacious monopoly that ran a program targeting small publishers called “Project Gazelle,” where execs were ordered to attack indie publishers “the way a cheetah would pursue a sickly gazelle”:

Rant…
Come on Amazon like how tf does someone deliver a package to the WRONG APARTMENT? Now not only am I upset because what I ordered (two items) was delivered to someone else, but I’m also practically betting against the odds that the people it went to will bring it to me so yet again I’m gonna have to chat with customer service. Why can’t drones just deliver our stuff already?
