On the way home from our show last night, I kept thinking about how punk bands in the eighties spray painted bedsheets with their logo on them. My first band made one and it was SOOOO important to us to have it behind us at every show.

I kinda want to make one for our next show but I already have to carry 1000 pounds of merch on the train.  ( ^ . ^ ) \m/

Lately I've been experimenting with running in place during pomodoro breaks. It's blowing my mind how much of an energy boost you get after five minutes of desk jogging. Set a goal of 13,000 steps per day which works out to around 10 kilometers, I think.

Good for endurance and also works out the kick drum calf muscle.

There is so much in this article that helped clear some of the fog of CSS Flex and CSS Grid for me. For some reason over the years, I kept going back to CSS Flex to center things because Grid would randomly "act weird". I thought it was something I was doing but Flex would center every time.

Cool to know the reason why. See the "Differences from Flexbox" section under "Centering with CSS Grid"

When I listen to an album, I like to post it on the blog. It's useful for me to have a database of stuff I have listened to at random times.

The slog is getting them into the site so I thought I'd make an Apple Shortcut. After some struggling, the closest I can get so far is to have shortcuts Shazam the current song. The shortcut then opens the album up on Safari in one tab and an empty blog page in another tab. From there I can copy/paste the album's info into the blog post.

It's clunky-level which is one above from slog-level¹.

¹ Since this is a Drupal site, I should see if I can get the current song into a spreadsheet and import it.

It was so windy today that it deserves a blog post. I was carry two heavy bags of groceries and they we’re getting lifted by the gusts.
