the main post eye/chat icons annoying to tap on my phone, because they're small without accompanying text. the base lines are also funky, so the eye is offset from the rest of the text vertically. i think i resolved similar vertical alignment issues in the past with some simple flex layout logic, but it has been a while.
i deleted the rest of this post because i'm a dumbfuck who is cursed to learn by saying dumb shit before realizing i'm a blind idiot.
all of my heavy construction coworkers who i regularly do heavy construction with regularly compliment my supple (yet strong) pink fingers. sometimes they ask if they can hold my hand and blow me kisses. i love my heavy construction coworkers.

One of the most annoying things I've had to deal with is trying to get the icons vertically aligned with the text. It never seems exactly right for every case no matter what I try. If you want to take a look and figure it out, let me know!
I still don't even fully understand how I'm supposed to think about this. Am I just supposed to apply some sort of vertical align style to the icons themselves? I think that's what AI told me. Or is it better to apply a style to the parent container to vertically align all the children with each other?
That fixed it in the important places I guess, but there are still other places where I can't do that. I'm starting to remember why I stopped making websites...
i'll look at it later, but if memory serves, the idea is to create a flex container element (like a span with display: flex & align-items: center) for the icon/text combo, but like all css usually takes a little rigging & playing around to figure out.

Added more text to icons for disabled users with fat fingers.

in the anchor tag that wraps the icon & text, i added the styles:
