Just a reminder that several years ago we travelled 48 million miles to a 4.5 billion year old asteroid, orbited it, photographed it, and vacuumed up samples that were sent back to Earth and they're arriving next week.
Just take a moment and think about that! 🛰️
Wow - I'm in the top ten contributors to the WordPress Photo Directory!!!

Another milestone completed!
Yesterday, we merged the PR that exposes the `@wordpress/interactivity` package, which means it will be possible to test it with external blocks once Gutenberg 16.2 is released 🎉🎉
Next step: create a Getting Started guide!

The "create reusable block" flow is now also used to create a pattern via the block editor.
Sole difference: toggle to sync changes across the site or not.
📳On = Reusable block
📴Off = Pattern
A few content creators started using reusable blocks that way from the start 🙌
