It's fascinating how many people are willing to effectively say out loud, "I don't care about this very much". Especially when you're talking about the heart of your own business...

Initially I was frustrated with the rise of self-checkout but I appreciated how stores passed the savings on to me rather than pocket the money, fire armies of workers & make me do a job I suck at. It’s also why I’m optimistic about AI! I have been kicked in the head by several horses.

New Cherry Bones now out!
shop.cherrybonesmag.com/products/che...
Quick highlights:
- it has more pages!
- it costs less!
- It's really good! (better than issue 1!?)
- there's a bunch already in the US, so US shipping cheaper and quicker
- one run only this time, when it is gone it is gone.
