Since 2012, Global Accessibility Awareness Day (GAAD) has been observed on the third Thursday of May to bring about exposure and awareness to digital accessibility. Of course, for many accessibility enthusiasts, every day is a day to bring not just awareness, but action. accessibility.day

On this day 12 years ago, we launched Transistor, our second game.🎤 To everyone who experienced Red's journey through Cloudbank, thank you for playing! Please enjoy a slice of Junction Jan's, on us. Your choice? 🍕Supremo Deluxe 🥦Harvest Garden 🦐Sea Monster ❓Mystery Jan's

Some more dinos and friends I forgot to post >.<

I GET LOGGED OUT. BUT I LOG IN AGAIN

CIS PEOPLE TIME TO STEP UP it’s once again time to yell at our bad government via online comment form the FCC is trying to make trans and nonbinary content require special ratings on shows GLAAD has a good writeup on it below TELL ‘EM NO direct link to comment form: www.fcc.gov/ecfs/filings...

It is 11 am, a storm is coming in, and it is so dark the street lights turned back on. It should be legal to go back to bed instead of working on days like this.

this is the last photo on my parents' video birdfeeder before it was mysteriously destroyed we may never know what happened

Today is Endangered Species Day, and we’re celebrating a tiny bird with a massive spirit: the Piping Plover! 1/4 📸: Chicago Piping Plovers (June 2025)

Life is short, hold on to each other while you can ❤️🧡💚🩶

if the flyer is AI I am not going; large chance it's scam/not worth it either way

heard a guy say "you have to access it through the portal" and i was momentarily struck by how sad it is that what he said is so boring :( "accessing it via the portal" should be wonderful. we deserve that at least. it should be cool to access it via the portal and instead it sucks shit

Great video of Amanda Jones conducting the music for Murderbot and Sanctuary Moon, then an interview with her: www.dailymotion.com/video/xa9ebmg

it is time for MORE little guys. or. maybe just one little guy (1/3)

I am very excited that it is #Murderbot day!! I love seeing all the hype! Unfortunately, I did not finish my speedrun re-read that I started last Tuesday, so I will get to read the new Murderbot as soon as I finish Fugitive Telemetry and System Collapse.

Hallelujah.

Tomorrow is May 1st. Btw, I wear the shirt ironically.

Guys! GUYS! It's back! It's coming back!!! The single greatest literacy promotion in human history* is coming back! All you 80s and 90s kids know what's up! *(this point may be a little hyperbolic, but just a little) people.com/pizza-huts-b...

HAROLD. We talked about this

@k1tln.com happy belated morse code day (yesterday!)

#ArtemisII My latest cartoon for @newscientist.com

One of the problems with technology today is if you're a millenial/xennial you remember when tech worked.

Littke something to pin on Insta after the wave of A/I slop from this weekend

I’m all tucked in and ready for a restful night of overthinking.

My coworkers at Hachette and I are unionizing!! I am so proud of all of the work we've put into this campaign. We are the largest union in trade publishing. Please sign our open letter to show your support and urge management to voluntarily recognize our union! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Obey the kitty of wisdom! #learnswordfighting #hema #londonlongswordacademy #cats #sword

Leave a comment for the FCC, they want to warn ppl when a show contains a trans character. Your comment doesn't have to be long, you can literally just say it's discriminatory, offensive and absurd. In the first box put: 19-41. More info in this thread.

Happy Earth Day.

I don’t know if I’m just “feeling some kind of way” today but the thought of 300 million little guys winging their way across North America is making me tear up.

It's estimated that these extreme cuts to NASA science would cancel more than 40 missions. That's lost science, lost discovery, lost innovation, and the end of careers. Some of these missions are already in space, doing good science, and would simply be abandoned. www.planetary.org/articles/82-...

Chicago river bridge lifts start again Wednesday. blockclubchi.co/48fq8jo

When I was working on curiosity, our budget decreased by 5-10% every year, our power output from the RTG decreased by about the same, and we managed to do just as much science over time—sometimes even more—than when the mission started. A 50% cut out of nowhere would kill missions like curiosity.

In other news, my workplace continues to be completely enamored by AI and is forcing everyone to start using Claude. If anyone is looking for a software engineer with 9 years of experience, a focus in web accessibility, and who is not on the AI train please hit me up.

Happy Earth Day. It should go without saying, however things are incredibly stupid right now and that is not the case, so.. Fuck AI

it is Earth Day and also Plover Fever is heating up in Chicago so here are some Piping Plover things I have made

There's a weird little guy in my hotel room.

This Is Just To Say I have turned off the AI features that were in the update and which you were probably hoping to monetize Fuck you they were stupid so unnecessary and so annoying
