tailwind brainrot is real and i’m the patient zero

in defense of writing 47 classes on a single div. yes it’s ugly. no i will not stop.

yes, my div has 47 classes on it. yes, it looks like a ransom note. no, i will not be taking questions.

the case for the mess

utility classes mean i never leave the file i'm working in. no naming things. no hunting a stylesheet three folders away. the chaos is local, and local chaos is manageable chaos.

is it pretty? no. does it ship? every time.


thanks for reading. now go touch grass.
