Angry book covers not updating from calibre to send to kindle

hi yall! i'm using a 2024 kindle basic, fyi.

i've been updating some of the covers of my books in my calibre library. these books are already downloaded on my kindle. when i add the new cover in calibre and then drag to send-to-kindle, the book cover shows the OLD cover instead of the new cover. i've tried deleting the already installed books with the old cover to re-upload with the new cover, and the same thing keeps happening.

this is happening for newly installed books as well. i download a book, upload it to my calibre library, change the cover in calibre, but once i send to kindle, the ORIGINAL (ugly/low quality) book cover that was downloaded with the ePUB appears in my library.

i am on calibre 8.10, my kindle is up to date completely. i don't know how to fix this, i just want new book covers! (i just updated my calibre to the latest version yesterday, and now i'm regretting it. i didn't have this issue before!)
