I love dragons …

By the way, it’s totally possible to get through life without using Amazon. I’ve been doing it quite successfully, buying directly from brands I trust, rather than risking getting China-made crap for the sake of convenience. Amazon founder-dragon Jeff Bezos has enough money to explore space travel, thanks in no small part to his brutal treatment of employees. Don’t add to his treasure hoard!

I’m with you–no Amazon here. I will make the trip to a bookstore to order a book through them. Mostly, I avoid consumption.
OTOH, the Washington Post rocks and I am glad somebody is supporting it.
Very conflicted about Jeff.
