I know others have raised the alarm on this, but I’m calling it now:
Amazon is making this change so they can easily redact, restrict, and otherwise censor LGBTQIA+ books that were acceptable a year ago, but are likely to become outlawed in the US very soon

Amazon’s killing a feature that let you download and backup Kindle books

I've worked really hard to get where I am today. Stuff like this makes me feel like my very existence and effort in getting here is a threat. Why do people want to erase my identity and path? Why do people want to erase my ability to help others? It is exhausting.

Have you heard about the SAVE Act? It's the newest effort at voter suppression by the House GOP & it's important for all of us.

Public libraries are amazing!
Did you know you can borrow a book from any library in the country and return it to any other library?
Did you know they have subscriptions to huge amounts of national and international media that you can access?

Fun fact — when asked whether he would lower the price of groceries while in office, Trump’s answer was:
“I don't think so. Look, they got them up. I'd like to bring them down. It's hard to bring things down once they're up. You know, it's very hard.”
Congratulations to the “price of eggs” idiots.
