Lots of writing this month:

• Why you should use Rails
• A reminder that things take time
• How shadcn/ui's previews work
• Why I hate that 1.01% meme
• A lovely term, 'grace note'
• Au revoir, invoke!
• A quick check-in on 11ty
• A rant/snippet for auth.js
• The first edition of what will be a long, living document on ActivityPub
• A handy git one-liner
• Why it's always harder than you think
• A note on the price of beer

And some media notes (it was a rare month where I basically only had positive things to say!):

• Unreasonable Hospitality
• Ripley
• Sugar
• The Club Dumas
• Everybody's in L.A.

In other, more-exciting, non-writing news:

• My wife and I are expecting! The next four months are going to be a bit of a foot-on-the-gas-goblin-mode-slash-monk-mode extravaganza as I work to get Buttondown in as great of a place as it can be before I take an extended paternity leave.
• I released my first new project in a while, under the auspecies of Buttondown — shovel.report, a sort of "dig on steroids" tool that's been really helpful with onboarding new customers.
• Buttondown's new summer intern Turki has been absolutely crushing it shipping a lot of great improvements to the Tiptap editor, including our first (of likely many) Tiptap extension.
