When I was little I was determined to always protect nature, stand against 'bad people' to save forests, animals, wilderness. 🌳🌱🦝🦉 As I grew up my convictions slowly faded, and I've done literally nothing.

All your bills going up and up and up. Taxes rising to the highest level in 70 years. The worst economic crisis for a generation. Not our words. The words of those running to be the next Tory leader. See what else they think of 12 years of Tory failure:

I put together a CSS Reset that uses modern CSS features such as :where(), logical properties, prefers-reduced-motion, etc. ✨ Lots of inspiration from @JoshWComeau, @hankchizljaw, and @argyleink. elly.to/CSS-Reset

💡 CSS Tip! I told you that, using 2 CSS declarations, we can extend the background of an element outside of its container but we can still do better! Demo: codepen.io/t_afif/full/oNEaq… via @CodePen Full credit to @SelenIT2 for this sorcery 🧙‍♂️ nitter.gq/SelenIT2/status/153449… #CSS
