I have a lot of feelings about the whole CSS-Tricks debacle. Here's me trying to be constructive about it. ericwbailey.website/published/cs...

side note: we managed to genericize every brand into a term except somehow Dr. Pepper

but I do love that they codified the de facto iconography of: bottle with straw = cola tumbler with ice = Dr Pepper mug with foam = root beer

bizarrely, right before they pulled them years ago, they moved these from the seltzer aisle to the soda aisle! managing to piss off both seltzer and soda drinkers at once.

Wayne Elgin @wayne.elgin.dev · 22/08/2026
like the soda flavors are way more prominently labeled than the fact that they're seltzers. if you're a soda drinker, you'd be pissed.

they're the only mass seltzer maker who sells them, but Kroger still sucks at figuring out how to market.

after inexplicably disappearing from Kroger shelves several years ago, my favorite seltzers are back
a tower of 3 Kroger brand seltzer 12-packs, each "soda inspired": root beer, dr. k, and cola flavors.

when i saw the new brood variant in the shop, I was about to buy it before thinking this old one might have appeared in my vault. I fully backed out, opened every vault card to verify it wasn't there, then pulled the trigger on the new one.

The "big beautiful bill" is a death sentence for 446 hospitals. GOP made the LARGEST Medicaid cut in 60 yrs-$911B-to fund tax cuts for the rich while hospitals close & mothers drive an hour for prenatal care. The Pentagon demands $200B MORE for an endless war in Iran. They chose war over your life.
