What happens if you turn on the reduce motion setting?

I’m so here for this. “Add something unexpected like a tiny Victorian mourning portrait behind the decomposing head.”

With menu text in them! Not a whiff of alt text. The web was perfectly accessible, then ruined by designers like us. The shame.

Me too Sean. All those years perfecting a table with a bevelled edge made from 1px gifs.

Oh crumbs - all that shameless left hand fanning I’ve been doing on the tube 🤭

Tirelessly sounds more worthy than scrotum, own it please. And send me the guide to fanning! I am most likely doing it inappropriately 🪭

Thanks Léonie, excellent article. I’m often asked for responsibilities of roles in product and tech, this will be a useful share.

It’s dreadful round me in Hackney. It’s just become the norm for all the Lime bikes to skip the red light and go through the crossing. Wish they could tie them to the lights and immobilise them.

Totally with you mate (even if I’m typing this into the void). Replacing TikTok with an RSS feed reader on my home screen helped - muscle memory is strong!

Ohhh, I can imagine mushrooms would be a good texture for this - what a neat idea. Could never bring myself to eat foie gras, regardless of how nice something tastes it's tainted by suffering.

Social media occasionally presents me with a gem like this, making the terrible business of participating worthwhile.

Craig’s articles were an invaluable resource for me in the lead up to the European Accessibility Act. He is brilliant at explaining complex legislation and accessibility guidance in a way that’s practical and easy to apply.

Great idea, wish I’d thought of this. I was caught 2 yrs running by Adobe. This year they graciously allowed me to pay £32 to end my contract one week early, even though I had already paid to the end of the contract. Disgraceful practices!

Been lying in the garden drinking beer for the past 7 days so have not emerged from the heatwave looking quite this buff.

I spend around £60/month on books. I try to buy second-hand to keep my addiction in check 🤓

Your poor Mum, I hope she is okay. My post was silly but it's a genuine fear. It's become the norm for cyclists not to stop at red lights in London and electric bikes are so heavy.

Thanks mate! If I wore coloured shorts I'd probably burst into flames.

Ice cream for breakfast sounds perfectly reasonable in this weather. My breakfast is iced latte, which is the grown-up equivalent.

This UK heatwave is making it difficult to uphold my goth values. Wearing shorts to the office and feel like I’m letting the sisterhood down 🐈‍⬛

When I first moved to London, my biggest fear was being caught up in a terrorist incident. Now it's being taken out by a 14 year old on a Lime bike doing 25mph through a red light while looking at TikTok.

I suck at all sports but I found my lifeline with running. Over the years it’s become the key to my mental heath. I still sort of hate it but the benefits outweigh the pain enough to keep running.
