been actively resisting fascism since 2015. I get your disappointment in the USA, I feel it too. open to sincere suggestions and meaningful critique.

wts "do nothing" feels a bit hyperbolic. bear in mind that however angry you are the US, I guarantee many of us here are quite. a. bit. angrier.

Thanks for asking! Last year we decided to move fully online. It's.... awesome? So far. Great team working space but no in-person store, so we can focus on the books and buyers (regardless of location.)

Our catalog is sloooowly coming online at www.rhuckus.com. We are also on ebay :)

And my final use case as a small business owner, I have found AI invaluable in creating content on-the-fly that empowera me and my coworkers to work together as a team to retroactively win any arguments we had with our kids before work.

So onto
3) writing
4) image generation.

Claude
- OK writing, if bland

ChatGPT
- writing bad

ChatGPT and Claude are both pretty not-good at ....

2) IT support. If your problem is simple, maybe? but i that case you probably know already. Troubleshooting laptop perf issues, building your toolchain..faster to research yourself (or pay a human.)

ChatGPT & Claude are both reliably good at:

1) Generating recipes based on what's in my fridge e.g., "is there any delicious way to prepare frozen spinach?"

For small business owners who *also* cook dinner, highly recommend.
