Btw this is a great way to accommodate yourself. Whether you're disabled or not.

I live in a 2 floor home so it can be hard for me to get to my main kitchen at times. So it's nice to be able to hydrate and eat even when I don't feel great. Or I'm locked in working.
With great encouragement from friends! I decided to completely update my kitchen area in my office space. I got a new mini fridge stand, a new bigger microwave, a new better mini fridge, a Keurig (just easier for me to use) and other accessories.

the truly crazy making part of all of this is that voter fraud EFFECTIVELY DOES NOT EXIST. you have a better chance of finding an actual leprechaun at the end of the rainbow than of finding evidence of voter fraud that influences an election
Genuinely an insane paragraph from Sam Alito. “Voter fraud is real and scary and we have to stop it, so the fact that implementing Trump’s mail ballot rule will disenfranchise millions is legally irrelevant.” Brain melted. A right-wing podcaster in a robe. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

In case you missed it yesterday, my sister and I were hit by a drunk driver and while we are safe, we do need help getting our car back on the road.

If you can donate and/repost this, I would truly appreciate it. Thank you 🧡
Hey y’all. Hope y’all are holding up amid uncertain times. We however have a frustrating update

During an overnight shift, my sister & I were hit by a drunk driver. We’re SAFE, thank Gaia but our car isn't drivable right now. Unfortunately, the car being out of commission—

If we had clean air standards and mandatory respirators in healthcare, this wouldn’t happen.

Patients deserve protection.

They’re scared. They’re vulnerable. They’re often immune compromised.

Infecting a baby in the NICU is a massive infection control failure.

Alt text and photo captions serve different purposes, so they should not be identical to each other. If you duplicate the photo caption text in the alt text, users are going to hear the same text twice. This is annoying for one image, let alone multiple images. Don't do this.

For screen readers to recognize headings, heading text can't just be body text or normal text that's been made to look bigger and bolder. It must be formatted as a heading. In Microsoft Word and Google Docs, this can be done in the styles box. In HTML, use the tags h1 through h6.

Your site's users need enough time to interact with content and fill out forms. People with disabilities such as blindness, low vision, dexterity impairments, and cognitive disabilities might need more time for things such as forms. Allow users to turn off or extend time limits.

Consider your site content that is routinely updated, like weather maps, Covid charts, or stock graphs. Screen reader users encounter maps and charts where the image has been updated but the alt text hasn't. This can lead to confusion. Always update alt text when updating images.

Don’t stuff your alt text with keywords without context. If your alt text is just a collection of keywords, it will just sound like a gibberish string. It won’t describe what’s actually in the image, and won't help a blind user get a context or content of the image.

NYT did this to me too. A piece I wrote went super viral and days later the Times pub’d the same story. I put up such a stink and got my followers so riled up the Times was forced to link my story in their article.

They do this CONSTANTLY. They believe it’s not a real story until they publish it.
On July 8th, we published a piece on AI in Heated Rivalry fic fandom. On July 30th, the New York Times ran a piece on the same subject. We weren't surprised—because we knew a Times reporter had read our coverage.

A tale of two fandom articles, part of a longstanding dynamic in the media industry:

I really feel like it should be bigger news that fibreglass is in IV saline bags in the US.

This isn’t a situation where you might get a little sick.

Fibreglass going directly into your veins will kill you.

IV saline is used for almost every medical procedure.

This is unconscionable:
