Dude it’s 2025, just put @nickmdiego’s icon block in WordPress core already. Icons are an essential website element, not something users should have to chase down via a plugin.

This was a crazy and exciting day in space exploration. I remember the excitement of seeing that first up close look at Pluto!. Here's a super high res version of it:
Ten years ago, we met Pluto like never before. 🌕. On July 14, 2015, New Horizons flew just 7,800 miles from Pluto’s surface after a 3+ billion mile journey. It gave us this iconic view and opened a new era of planetary science.

Just a heads up that there are entire galaxies out there that are essentially cosmic zombies. They stopped forming new stars billions of years ago but are still cruising through space like massive stellar graveyards. Thought you should know.

Design and thoughtful UX have always been paramount, but now you’re really going to see it shine. Hire yourself a few designers and turn your slop into pop.
design is the differentiator now. for real.

I ended up combining parts of these unhinged smileys together for a less crazy but not-quite-sane smiley. Thank you for your input, internet.
Which of these insane smileys do you like better? Left or right?

People are split down the middle on this one. One of the most important questions of our time, apparently.
Which of these insane smileys do you like better? Left or right?
