Cory Doctorow on Nostr: Illustrating Amazon's dominance over the EU coulda been easy - just stick Amazon 'A's ...
Illustrating Amazon's dominance over the EU coulda been easy - just stick Amazon 'A's in place of the yellow stars that form a ring on the EU flag. So I decided to riff on Plutarch's Alexander, out of lands to conquer. Rama's statue legs were nice and high-rez. I had my choice of public domain ruin images, though it was harder thank expected to find a good Amazon box as a plinth for those broken-off legs.
