@handolio Yes.
Oof. I always warn people that the few minutes after you send a newsletter are the most depressing ones, as that’s the biggest danger zone for unsubscribes.
And so it proved today…
You can help assuage my unsubscribe insecurities by getting signing up here, of course…
Build it — and they won’t come.
If you don’t know what I mean, you need to read this:
Just had a depressing email about the planned final withdrawal of the .eu domain name I used to own, but am no longer entitled to.

@GlenBMulcahy Best wishes to you both. We’ve been there more than once, and it’s always part of your afterwards.
A good reason for a [drizzly beach picnic] last weekend…
