Thank you so much! It's literally these return True things that keep
throwing me off.

Do you have a suggestion of somewhere I can read about all of these
conventions?

They are not conventions, they are documented behavior: just pay
attention to the signal documentation. In your specific case you
probably connected a callback to the "button-press-event" signal.
Citing the relevant documentation [1]:

    Returns: TRUE to stop other handlers from being invoked for
    the event. FALSE to propagate the event further.

I think this is respected for all "*-event" signals.

Ciao.

Only some of the docs for these signals have been updated, but please use
GDK_EVENT_PROPAGATE or GDK_EVENT_STOP instead. Same for mainloop
sources, where you should use G_SOURCE_CONTINUE and G_SOURCE_REMOVE.
