Just pushed Mythos Theme v1.2.1! Fixed an internationalization issue where dates remained in English regardless of language settings. Also added optional FontAwesome icon support, custom HTML injection fields, and fixed a display issue with the Archive by Months plugin. More coming soon as well.

What I'm Carrying

For years, I’ve been an EDC (Everyday Carry) enthusiast. I’ve gone down every rabbit hole you can imagine from Bugouts to Sebenzas to Shamwaris to Zebralights to Hank’s Lights…the list could go on. As I’ve aged (matured?) I’ve settled into a kit that works well for my lifestyle.

One of my favorite things on our recent trip was watching the Blue Angels from a Target parking lot.

Every time we visit the Naval Aviation Museum in Pensacola, I’m reminded how incredible it is. Truly a gem.

Introducing Mythos Theme

After years (wow, that happened fast) of crafting themes for Micro.blog, I’m excited to introduce Mythos Theme — my latest project that represents the direction of my theme development work. Before diving into what makes Mythos special, I want to share some important updates about my existing themes and where they stand moving forward.

I made a simple Keynote theme for presenters (like pastors, teachers) who may need to frequently put together a slide deck that can work in multiple formats (in-person projection, livestream PiP, off-stage TVs, etc). Very niche market, but if you need it…you need it.

I’m starting something new for those connected to church life and leadership — Desk of Matt. Just getting going, but it’s officially lifting off.

It’s been a busy few weeks of life for us, but we’ve managed to squeeze in some fun times as well. This was from a nice Sunday lunch at a local spot. Tomorrow, we’re taking the kids on a week long road trip to relax and catch some baseball games.
