Giving an in-person talk for the first time in SEVEN YEARS. A thing I used to do *all the time*, and now it feels novel. New, even.
An almost-decade can bring a few changes. Apparently.

When the Borg comes...yah best prepare! 😐
I just finished book two from @scalzi.com's Old Man's War series. On to book three!
Beautiful blue skyline of the City of Boston. Viewed across the Charles River from Cambridge, Massachusetts.
Happy Friday, everyone! Just want to let you all know that I pushed out a new Boston WordPress Meetup website today!
We'll be adding more content in the coming months.

My son found one of my old cassettes the other day.
son: "what's this?"
me: DON'T PULL THE TAPE OUT!!!!
son: "it is not sticky...."

Why do dads have such good memories? Because we have large databases. 😂

It feels good to pass a completed site to a client for the final QA phase. #mondays

I am NOT feeling the vibe here with this code...
You should do a WP Builds live walk and talk session!
Okay, focus time. Switching to post-rock.
I just signed up for a B Corp Readiness class in August. Tacking this to my new business.
I'm not old; I just like the music from the 1930s and 1940s.
Yesterday, I joined the WordCamp NYC organization group! Let's get this goin'!!

Yesterday I ate my first kiwi fruit (freshly cut) in 25 years. I was always afraid it was going to give me one hell of an allergic reaction. Surprisingly, nothing happened!
I'm still off coffee, by the way. It's five and a half years in now.
History will always find a way to repeat itself, sadly.
We all spend time watching stuff on YouTube. What's your YouTuber dream team if you could make one?
Mine:
Forgotten Weapons - Ian McCollum
Vice Grip Garage - Derek Bieri
Outdoor Boys - Luke Nichols
I'm really loving all of these interesting WordPress offshoots from the main events.
This is very nice!
look, we're all out here making ourselves stressed out and miserable with terrible news all the time
please let yourself enjoy this, for your own mental health
Wait, this is not part of #WCEU?
Oh interesting. Never heard of this one before.
A basic scenario I am dealing with is pulling content from a single custom post type. Your typical grid of faces with image, name, and title. However, the existing Query Loop block doesn't pull out all the necessary fields that you want.
Yes! This was the next thing on my list after AI started doing some wrong black magic in my code editor. Eventually, I told it to revert all the changes.
I will need to look into this. Thanks!
Working in Cursor and having it help me build out certain elements is no different than me foraging for code on StackOverflow, Code Pen, and various documentations and cobbling them together in my editor. In the end, the AI is looking through the same things, but faster.
