I considered writing a long carefully constructed argument laying out the harms and limitations of AI, but instead I wrote about being a hater. Only humans can be haters.

I Am An AI Hater
I am an AI hater. This is considered rude, but I do not care, because I am a hater.

Accessibility Awareness @a11yawareness.bsky.social · 14/05/2025
If your organization is sharing posts for Global Accessibility Awareness Day: Like all images shared on Bluesky, images in posts with the #GAAD or #GAAD2025 hashtags need alt text. Posts about accessibility come off as hollow and performative if they aren't accessible and don't have alt text.

Pistachios are sneaky. I will see them in my pantry and think, meh! I would enjoy something else more. But then I eat a few pistachios and I can't stop!!

It's probably the fourth time this year I've said - "Welp! Last cold morning swim til fall!" But this has to be. 40°F this morning. Lovely start to my Monday. 😊

Accessibility Awareness @a11yawareness.bsky.social · 17/03/2025
Automated accessibility testing involves running a page through tools and software to detect errors. Manual testing involves humans testing pages. Automated testing can be faster, but automated tests can't catch every error. Thus, use both automated and manual testing.

The quotes for this are making me laugh. It's called irony, y'all! Laura Palmer was a character in a TV show who met an unfortunate end. This post isn't suggesting you follow her path! 😂 Really though, I hope you had a good Monday. If you are struggling, I hope you can reach out for support! 🫂

Monday motivation. 🔥
Laura Palmer standing under a red light, looking troubled. White text reads: "If Laura Palmer could go to high school, deliver meals on wheels, tutor several people, work at horns department store and one eyed jacks, enter ads from fleshworld, have multiple bisexual relationships and fight off Bob while constantly inhaling cocaine, you can get through today."

Have you been tuning in to #axecon?? I've heard so many great speakers dropping knowledge about digital accessibility. 🧡 Today is the last day, but you can still register for this virtual conference! You'll have access to all the sessions on demand, so you can catch earlier talks. deque.com/axe-con

Every time I think about starting a new James Baldwin novel, I stop and wonder - am I ready for emotional annihilation? 😅 Then I read literally the first PARAGRAPH, and the writing is so stunning I have no choice but to continue. ❤️

Hey y'all! axe-con is happening! This is the 5th year that Deque Systems, Inc has hosted this free, virtual conference, and it's going to be awesome. I'm excited for all the keynotes and have several talks I'm looking forward to over the next few days (Feb 25-27). I'll even be moderating a few!

Selena says good morning. 🧐
At first glance, this just seems to be a picture of my desk with a couple of plants and a lamp with a clear base, a window behind it. But upon further inspection, we notice Selena is perched on the window sill, staring at us through plant leaves and the clear lamp base. 😂

xiv bsky i don't know how to put this, but fancy fonts in your user/posts are nightmares to try to read with or without screen readers. i know, it looks pretty and aesthetically pleasing, but being able to READ the information/text is so much more pretty.

Do you forget to use alt-text when you post images? I'm forgetful, too. Fortunately, you can turn on reminders! Settings -> Accesibility -> Require alt text. Done! Easy accessibility.

Finally watched Crip Camp. So great! 😭 I am amazed and so grateful for the incredible strength of those disability activists who fought for the civil rights of millions of Americans. It's hard to believe the ADA is still so young!
