If you're into tarot and astrology, I'd love to invite you to my new Substack, Out of Hand. I'm writing personal essays about my lived experiences, exploring identity, belief, and emotional truth. lisagraglia.substack.com/p/this-is-ou...
This is Out of Hand
When life gets out of hand, we return to ourselves through the cards and stars. This is the beginning of my story — and the heart of this space.

I've been spending a lot less time on social media, and it's been so good for my mental health and creativity. So I'm going to give myself the rest of the month off social media. Maybe see you here in March, maybe not!

You know what? Blogging thrived well before algorithms existed. And I can't help but feel like we need to stop giving algorithms so much power.

How are you curating your social media feed these days? I need more balance and to be able to engage with politics on my terms, when I'm in a good headspace to inform myself and take action. Right now my feed is an overwhelming fear machine.

Can y’all please take all this energy against trans people in bathrooms and redirect it to getting rid of gaps in bathroom stalls instead?

Friends, it's ok to have boundaries and engage in politics on your terms only. We are not built to take in bad news all day every day. You can't take effective action until you take care of yourself.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but your business gets better when you give yourself time to pursue interests outside it.

Reviewing my 2024 business expenses — who bought all these domain names???

Why does @wordpress.com install the Gutenberg plugin and say that it "provides features offered in your plan subscription"? Per the plugin page, it's for early adopters who want to test features in active development. I'm seeing more customers lately with issues tied to the Gutenberg plugin.

If I had to make a list of required viewing for lifestyle bloggers, the new Martha doc on Netflix would be at the top.

Want long-term success in blogging? Start with your stories — then figure out why people should care. THAT is how you build a brand that adapts to trends and builds community.

Hey #wordpress people, am I missing something or is there not a way to simply replace a font in a block theme, and automatically have all instances of the original font in the theme replaced with the new font?
