Huh. Today *I* learned…

The CSS attribute selector has a case-insensitive flag!

The amount of negative things that my brain thinks other people think (or will think) about me and things that I do is totally ridiculous. Shut up pessimistic cynical ego. Exciting things are happening. Enjoy them! And stop worrying about things that haven’t happened yet and probably never will!!

This is why I love retro gaming. I can just shove a cart into my Analogue Pocket, press start, and play a game.

When did we lose this simple ability to just DO something?

Feeling like I’d had every bug and virus this year but had escaped stomach flu/food poisoning.

I now have the complete set. 😥

Tomb of the Mask was recently added to Apple Arcade and it’s a really cool little puzzle game. Loving it!!

I’ll be glad when all this change is over. Job change. New garden office arriving (and getting out of old office). All the annual car-owner shenanigans. Extra accidental car-owner shenanigans.

😥

This is public enough that I can probably say it here now…

I have a new role at WP Engine!!

Three years ago I joined Delicious Brains as a web developer. And it was always my hope that there might be a path to working on the product teams there.

Two years ago WP Engine bought Delicious Brains and I got put in their web dev team in marketing (which is a SUPERB team!)

But on July 8th I will fulfill the goal and begin work on the products developing WP Migrate and Offload! Yay!! 🙌

Amazing to see The Slo Mo Guys attending and filming the crazy annual Cheese Rolling event here in the wacky UK.

UK Politics

I heard a bit of Rishi’s manifesto launch.

I literally want to pay more tax and for you to invest in clean energy.

So it sounds like your “clear plan” is clearly not for me.

Though I’m not expecting much from Labour either.

I guess that makes me a socialist or something.

Oh! Wow! I clicked a Facebook Ad and I’m not even sorry because it took me to the Randall Munroe UK your site!

This is EMF camp. I really want to go one day. Nerds are awesome!

This week was a riot at work. We laughed a LOT! I love this team. 💙

Oh gosh SO many good things happened today. What a whirlwind! 😃

UK politics but funny satire
