In a shockingly short period of time, Amazon went from a plucky upstart to a goliath. Beginning as a humble book retailer, it capitalized on weak markets and outmaneuvered brick-and-mortar businesses that had previously seemed unshakeable. Where once the threat to mom-and-pop shops was Walmart, now it is the Amazon warehouse. In fact, Amazon did what Walmart could not: it made itself indispensable to small businesses, who often faced a difficult choice between selling on Amazon and paying its fiat fees, or facing bankruptcy.

Amazon has restocked the Pokemon TCG Trick or Trade Booster Bundle, and this time the retailer isn't selling it for an astronomical price.

Your order will be shipped and sold by Amazon, but unfortunately it won't arrive until mid-November.

Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, the president, has come under fire from conservationists who argue his oil expansion plans clash with his image as a global leader on climate change. Brazil will host Cop30 climate talks in the Amazon city of Belem next month.

This Second Bienal das Amazônias seems to understand its contradictions without attempting to resolve them. Curated by Manuela Moscoso together with Sara Garzón, Jean da Silva, and Mónica Amieva, the biennial unfolds around the idea of verde-distância ("green distance"), a notion borrowed from Benedicto Monteiro (1924-2008)-a Brazilian writer, journalist, and politician-that gestures toward the aliveness of the forest and its reverberation across bodies, landscapes, and times.
