Had managed to forget about #AmazonFail

They didn't want erotica (especially queer erotica) showing up on their bestseller lists.

I had adult gay titles (including erotica) under my name, but ALL my books, including my non-queer children's titles, had their sales ranking stripped.

🤬🤬

Amazon has removed key protections for LGBTQ+ and Black employees, eroding workplace equity. This quiet rollback of rights is unacceptable. We demand transparency and the restoration of these vital safeguards. Workers deserve better. #AmazonFail #WorkplaceEquity

How does Amazon’s policy allow sellers to list products affecting vulnerable animals like sharks, which may face extinction?
Shouldn't sellers have to provide documentation proving compliance with policies protecting endangered species?

Amazon: Protect the sharks!
Sharks have ruled the oceans for over 400 million years, but now a brutal online trade is pushing them to the brink of extinction – their jaws carved out and sold as trophies on platforms like Amazon.

Whole Foods (owned by Amazon) claims their animal welfare standards ‘’are stronger than most anywhere.” 



Let's dive in. Today’s spotlight: “Happy Meat”.



A supplier with a name that couldn’t be further from the disturbing reality.

Amazon Prime used to be a great deal at $99/year when 2-day shipping actually meant 2 days. Now it’s $139/year and takes a week or more to get packages. What are we even paying for anymore? 🤔 #AmazonFail #PrimeNoMore

Netter „Versuch“ #Amazon, aber Katzenkram ist was für @royackermann.fussballgott.eu, @bueckwarenoutlet.bsky.social oder auch, wenn ich’s recht erinnere @unveu.bsky.social. Ick mit Katzenhaarallergie nich an Trockenfutter interessiert… #Howdareyou #Amazonfail #algorithmfail

I ordered copies of my novella to have available at my next book signing. They are so cute...

Well

Except this one

It's not only printed crooked/wrong the chapters are backward...

At least it's only one book.

Hey @amazon this is not my house. This is a sign post somewhere in my neighborhood? Seriously WTF. Dude got out of his truck, put box in the grass nowhere near house, took a pic and was like “yea this seems right” #amazonfail

#amazonfail YES! Amazon should fail ... badly. Censorship again.
