Just wrote a ton of documentation on Underpin’s registry/collections API, full of tons of examples with sample code and everything. Hoping I can add to this next week sometime.

OBX is a serious contender for my favorite place out east. There’s a lot to love about North Carolina. Really feeling the vibe of this area.

Welp, our land offer was not good enough, apparently. we lost on terms (again). I hate this feeling so much, and it keeps happening. You spend so much time and energy just…choosing the place, only to have it ripped away by a cash buyer. I hate purchasing real-estate so, so much.
At least we’re starting to see new options crop up. Maybe we’ll have more luck in the future.

Kate keeps telling me that we’re going to be able to see the Northern lights much further south than usual over the next few years. Does this mean it’ll be really crazy if you go where it is typically visible?

I’m finally dipping my toes into an auto-poster setup using the Share on Mastodon plugin:

Fingers crossed that this works as-expected, although I’m sure I’ll end up with some formatting oddities in the short-term. It’ll be worth it, though!

I’m Committing to Better Standards for Underpin
I want to make Underpin something that I can share with others better, and something that others feel comfortable with using. And that starts with taking ownership of the code, stabilizing it, and documenting it.

My wife spent like 3 hours on the beach with Bennett today, looking for seashells. As I approached her, she came running up to me looking like what you see in the photo ????. She was so dang excited to find a fully intact conch shell in the water, and got soaked going in after it.

I just now discovered that Codepen closed down their blog post functionality. I had some content written on that platform, so I guess it’s time to migrate it to my core site.
One such article is a fun breakdown I wrote back in 2016 on how I built an SNES controller using CSS+HTML.
