LOL to everyone who’s freaking out about the $550 price tag.
Been around pro audio my whole life. I have childhood memories of visiting showrooms filled with pricey mixers, speakers, microphones, headphones, and other gear.
$550 for pro-level headphones is entirely reasonable!
So, you paid $550 for Apple headphones...

I guess just like we use the term Vanilla JS to mean using native browser APIs for things like DOM access, API calls, events, class hierarchies, etc., we need to start using the term Vanilla CSS. Maybe even Vanilla HTML.
All hail the Vanilla Web. 🍦🙌

I don't expect to be productive in a pandemic, so while I don't feel GUILTY about all the projects I'm not doing, I do feel sad.

I struggle
to hold
G7
and drop a
pinkie
to
G
just off
key
or screech
of a scratching
fret
regrets in
rebounding
sounds
you know
what’s
right
but holding
on to truth
always so hard.
