People have historically invested in the US because we attract the best and brightest, have robust contract law protections and a stable, independent monetary policy. Trump has reversed all of that. nbcnews.com/business/economy/a…
in reply to Sean Casten

This will get worse before it gets better. As long as Trump continues to tell the world that the way to do business in the US is to bribe him or his family, and as long as the GOP in Congress continues to wallow in their sycophancy we won't right this ship.

Here is a map of the various state pacts formed in 2020 because of Trunp’s incompetence during the pandemic. They went dormant under Biden assuming a return to normalcy.

Now, under Trump and Project 2025, states have no option but to work together to replace a federal government being dismantled.

I have updated my Playground Step Library (which I had written about before)–the tool that allows you to use more advanced steps in WordPress Playground–so that it can now also be used programmatically: It is now an npm package: playground-step-library.

Behind the scenes this actually dominoed into migrating it to TypeScript and restructuring the code so that it now both powers the Web UI and the npm package.

Having those custom steps available now makes even more sense that the Playground CLI is production ready and you can use it for things like testing your WordPress plugin with Playwright, see this presentation Building Automated Tests with WordPress Playground from WordCamp Europe 2025 by my colleague Berislav “Bero” Grigicak.

In this example you can see a blueprint JSON that contains steps setSiteName and addPage that don’t exist in the library of steps of Playground. At the time of writing there are 36 custom steps with the goal of making it easier to do things that can be done with a blueprint already but need some complexity. See in the example below how creating a page can be done with runPHP and wp_insert_post but it’s visually easier with a step addPage.
import PlaygroundStepLibrary from 'playground-step-library';const compiler = new PlaygroundStepLibrary();const blueprint = { steps: [ { step: 'setSiteName', sitename: 'My Site', tagline: 'A WordPress Playground demo' }, { step: 'addPage', title: 'Welcome', content: '<p>Welcome to my site!</p>' } ]};const compiledBlueprint = compiler.compile(blueprint);console.log(compiledBlueprint);
Which turns this into a valid blueprint:
{ "steps": [ { "step": "setSiteOptions", "options": { "blogname": "My Site", "blogdescription": "A WordPress Playground demo" } }, { "step": "runPHP", "code": "\n<?php require_once '/wordpress/wp-load.php';\n$page_args = array(\n\t'post_type' => 'page',\n\t'post_status' => 'publish',\n\t'post_title' => 'Welcome',\n\t'post_content' => '<p>Welcome to my site!</p>',\n);\n$page_id = wp_insert_post( $page_args );" } ]}
You can then pass this blueprint to playground CLI to run it (see other demos by my colleague Fellyph):
import { runCLI, RunCLIServer } from '@wp-playground/cli';await runCLI({ command: 'server', login: true, blueprint: compiledBlueprint});
You can also conveniently try it out in WordPress Playground with this link (and also view in the Step Library UI).

Finally, in the repo there are a number of examples that you can browse and I created a little screen recording of a few of them:

Happy coding!


WordPress Playground Step Library


WordPress Playground is this fascinating tool that allows you to run WordPress without a server. It achieves this by running PHP in your browser by using WASM. It sounds cool, and it makes for numerous interesting demos, as its original creator Adam Zielinski showed at WordCamp Europe 2024: WordPress Playground – use WordPress without a server (recording, slides).

Having built Translate Live for WordPress.org–a way to translate plugins and themes without having to use a table UI–I have a bit of experience with having WordPress Playground do more complex things. But I also know that it be a bit difficult to get started with that.

Blueprints to start a Playground


So, as you can see with Translate Live, a WordPress Playground can be booted into configurations, and these configurations are (currently) called Blueprints. They are JSONs made of options and a list of steps. You can choose from a number of available steps like installPlugin to share a link with someone to try something in WordPress without having to set up hosting for that.

The available steps are somewhat basic but powerful. It can be abstract to think of what to do with them.

So, I had the idea that while the available steps of WordPress Playground are quite universal, we could build a library of “more meaningful” steps that do and “transpile” them to existing steps.

Build a Playground Blueprint with a Drag and Drop UI


Welcome to the WordPress Playground Step Library: Combining these steps with a click (or drag and drop) UI, it allows you do quickly create a WordPress Playground that does things you didn’t know you could easily do. Here is a screenshot:

So, for example, it could be useful when you share a WordPress Playground link to add some explanatory text, and what better to use than the infamous1 Admin Notice? But, how do you do it?

Turns out, you’d need a small mu-plugin. But with a custom step, it’s just a matter of adding that step:

So such a “custom blueprint” for playground would be this:
{ "landingPage": "/", "steps": [ { "step": "showAdminNotice", "vars": { "text": "Welcome to WordPress Playground!" } } ]}
But careful. The above doesn’t run in Playground. There is no showAdminNotice step. But the Step Library automaticaly transpiles to a valid blueprint:
{ "landingPage": "/wp-admin/", "login": true, "steps": [ { "step": "mkdir", "path": "wordpress/wp-content/mu-plugins" }, { "step": "writeFile", "path": "wordpress/wp-content/mu-plugins/0-mu.php", "data": "<?php add_action( 'admin_notices', function() { echo '<div class=\"notice notice-success is-dismissible\"><p>Welcome to WordPress Playground!</p></div>'; } ); ?>" } ]}
So which one is easier to remember? 😀 You can try this blueprint in WordPress Playground now! It will look like this:
WordPress showing an admin notice: Welcome to WordPress Playground!
I’ve made the Step Library so when you configure it, its URL reflects to your custom steps (this is the above in the Step Library) so that you can easily share them. If you wanted to share the actual running playground, share the URL of the “Launch in Playground” link.

The Playground link will start with playground.wordpress.net/, the Step Library link with akirk.github.io/playground-ste….

The Step Library is hosted on Github and you can contribute your own steps! Also happy to receive new issues with ideas of what steps might be useful to add. There also the Blueprints Gallery that showcases further uses of Playground and is also open to contributions!

So far, I have added these steps:

I’m curious if this tool can help you build a WordPress Playground, please tell me by commenting via Mastodon or ActivityPub, and spread the word about the tool!

  1. This is traditionally misused by plugins to prompt you to upgrade so that your wp-admin screen can get bloated with this. To the point where there is an Admin Notices Manager plugin that allows you to keep them under control. ↩︎

Granny aloe is in bloom again! Also, I finally bothered to correctly identify it as a soap aloe, #aloe #maculata, from South Africa! Came a long way to end up on my porch! The aloe vera (not pictured) is also doing well, and I even accidentally hybridized them so now I'm growing one of a kind aloes!

Sharia Law? US Police Dept Introduces Arabic Patch

Sharia Law? US Police Dept Introduces Arabic Patch

modernity.news/2025/09/05/shar…

A police department in Michigan has introduced a uniform patch that has Arabic writing on it, prompting fierce backlash.

Dearborn Heights Police Department is believed to be the first in the country to have a patch with a language other than English.

indicate that the patch was designed by an Officer Ermily Murdoc, who claims to have created it to “reflect and honor the diversity of our community – especially the many residents of Arabic descent who call Dearborn Heights home.”

It was introduced under the authority of recently appointed Police Chief Ahmed Haidar.

“The Dearborn Heights Police Department is proud to share a new optional patch that our officers may wear as part of their uniform,” a Facebook statement announced.

“By incorporating Arabic script alongside English, this patch represents unity, respect, and our shared commitment to service,” it adds.

“Our officers proudly serve all members of our community, and this new design is another way we continue to celebrate the rich cultures that make our city unique,” the statement further asserts.

The department quickly disabled comments on the Facebook post due to an influx of negative feedback, including accusations of promoting “Sharia law” or enabling a “cultural takeover.”

Dearborn Heights has a combined Middle Eastern and North African population of around 40 percent, while nearby Dearborn has a majority 55 percent.

Both areas, along with other towns such as Hamtramck, have attracted Arab communities with immigration from Lebanon, Yemen, and other Middle Eastern countries.

While there are Arabic speaking Orthodox Christians in Dearborn from earlier immigration movements in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, they have become proportionally smaller due to immigration trends favoring Muslim-majority groups, which now define much of the city’s Arab identity.
