ICYMI, also because #DisabilityAwarenessMonth . Like if you all are going to perceive me anyway, might as well. (I have chronic pain conditions - migraine and fibromyalgia- and am #ActuallyAutistic. But having managed conditions does not always mean govt benefits. Plus, US admin right now...)

Rlly glad that the human experience sticker is getting lots of love, but I also wanted to showcase my most recent sticker, this red fox :D 🦊 ko-fi.com/s/f2cbcd795a #formline #telekitneticart Look at it
A formline sticker of a red fox. The fox is a striking rust-orange, with gradienting darker umber on its snout and tail, and pale yellow chest/ear fluff and tail tip. It has it's tail wrapped around it's body, hiding its legs. It's head is angled to the left side. The sticker border is a gradienting light green to forest green, the sticker is about 2.25 x 3 inches, and is laying flat on a green and white grid cutting sheet.

lobbying theologians to agree with LLM consciousness is baffling to be so far up your own ass to try and get the catholics to agree with "but like, souls aren't a real thing right?"

Your periodic reminder that the decision to pursue a professional ballet career happens at similar or earlier age to most youth gender affirming care and has significantly more lifetime impact on peer socialization, how the body looks and overall health than social transition and puberty blockers.

Or if you have Creative Cloud subscriptions that overwrite predefined alt text with AI alt that is way out of left field, and now every contributor has to find out if they have those settings to turn off ... (Yep. It's traps all the way down.)

I mentioned localization. I did want to work in loc years ago and translated an early iOS app (Converter) into Japanese. The dev behind that app is now with a particular corporate fruit company. I wish I had kept more screenshots of those apps, tbh. #promosky

#accessibility thoughts: #promosky "Across the one million home pages, 56,114,377 distinct accessibility errors were detected—an average of 56.1 [automatically detected] errors per page." (WebAIM, 2026) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines & relevant laws may apply, but have you heard of them?

Dayjob work was accessibility from 2016. #promosky Accessibility and disability get misunderstood. Examples: having a disabling condition does NOT always equal being on govt benefits. Internalized ableism is a Thing.

The reason why I say this is that using the term "accessibility" in non disabled gamer circles, nowadays, it's used as a catch-all to make a game easier to play. It's not.

At 90k in 2018, you would be paying more than 50% of your income in rent. Assuming standard other bills, you will come up about 7k short a year. Also rent has definitely gone up since then and so has groceries and gas and everything else. 90k would be *underpaid* if you were remote.

When Schmitt was Missouri's AG he brought a lawsuit to stop student debt cancellation. The basic facts that lawsuit was based on were false. Getting the facts wrong is Schmitt's special skill, but when SCOTUS is politically motivated to do something the facts & law don't matter.
