From years of being bored, unsatisfied, or struggling in various jobs and industries, I finally feel like I have come home.

I'm so happy to join an industry with such brilliant, interesting, and gloriously nerdy people - I mean this in the best possible way!

I have attended both Beyond Tellerrand Düsseldorf and CSS Day 2024 and, wow. Huge thank yous to the organisers, speakers, and to the many warm and funny fellow attendees I had the joy to socialise with.

This is my church.

T shirt twinsies! @paul @heydon #CSSday

If anyone at #CSSDay wants to know the story about the little slightly creepy bell pepper stickers -

They're based on this thread: https://front-end.social/@sarajw/109994451332222396

The design is by @andycarolan 💖

Incidentally @stubbornella seeing as you asked for things to be submitted - here's my attempt at a Fakesonary using Grid and Flexbox: https://sarajoy.dev/#stuff

@stubbornella ooooh gosh I reckon we should name the hypothetical 2D masonry variant "drystone"

#CSSDay

In her closing talk @stubbornella is asking for input of what we want out of our Masonry CSS properties.

I feel like we could forever get input into how it should work, and the CSSWG might be able to put something out that covers 99% of wants...

BUT as soon as it's released with whatever constraints it may have - the people that have ideas and can bend CSS to their will (paging @stephenhay and @kizu!) will start subverting it to do something new and different!

Bring it on :)

Re @stubbornella and special language within companies (her example was 🐑 for "ship/sheep it"):

People in my company in Germany react with a 🇬🇧 on any announcement of someone being off sick.

The code for this in slack is :flag-gb:
German for "get well soon" is "Gute Besserung". GB. Great Britain.

Thanks @joshtumath for all the tooting, you are embodying the BBC - Busily Broadcasting CSS

Front-end.social peeps want to do a team photo?! #cssday

@kizu look at all those issues! You're such an asset to CSSWG
