    WordPress development has a history of returning false when something goes wrong in a function, but there has long-since been a better way to-do it.

    Huh. Well isn’t that neat.

    If it feels wrong, it’s probably wrong. Trust your gut, even when it’s difficult.

    And today, it very difficult.

    Oh look, Apple is giving the same exact presentation they’ve given us for the last 5 years.

    PSA: if you’re using Alpine for your WordPress plugin, please PLEASE use .prefix to namespace your components. You’ll get collisions with other plugins, otherwise. github.com/alpinejs/alpin…

    Does anyone else try to type “exit” in the browser bar instead of just…closing it?

    Just me?

    We’re hittin’ the road again this weekend. That’s a bit of a process with the things we’ve done to the camper so-far. We’re actually thinking about selling the plot we’re on, too.

    Taos is absolutely amazing, but we don’t feel at home here.

    Surprise! (or not).

    I’ve been wondering about this for a bit. Alpine is really cool but since it’s not built into WordPress core I worry about the possibility of version collisions between plugins.

    I have so many things changing in my life all at once right now. Some are my doing, others are completely out of my control. I have been feeling pretty overwhelmed lately.

    Can’t wait until all of these things pass.

    Okay, tell me what you think my enneagram is, and I’ll tell you what I think yours is. GO
