The word of the day is „aporophobia“. It means hatred towards or fear of poor people. Let’s use it in a sentence.

I need to write for a thing and my brain is just this gooey molten chocolate and I keep staring at my screen for ages. Not cool. (🥁)

So as someone who occasionally enjoys the gut-wrenching classism elegy of a Kazuo Ishiguro book… seeing it being given the Waititi-cute-and-happy treatment is certainly… an experience. (Klara and the Sun trailer)

Built a key visual today and was told that it looks like it was made by ai. Probably the most mortifying feedback I ever got to date. 😐 Back to the drawing board.

Damn, this heat is flooring me. 😵‍💫 Just following my brain fog slowly through the haze, trying to ignore my squealing legs.

Currently learning about training and moderating workshops, and I get so much stuff about activating methods crammed into my brain, that this absolut brain fart appeared between my notes.

So yes, I did go to the cinema to watch The Mandalorian (except for s3 I have a soft spot for it). I would say the amazing score by Ludwig Göransson did some verrrry heavy lifting here. Not sure why a film though, was more like 3-4 episodes.

Hey Bluesky, could you help me signal boost my Big Cartel shop? Jeremy Creatures are designed and hand-sewed by me, and they take many hours to create. Four of the creatures pictured are currently available in my shop. jeremycreature.bigcartel.com

Life’s hard enough. Let’s look at this round, cartoon-shaped planthopper.

EXCELLENT WORK, MY CUNNING LITTLE CORVID

Giving a workshop this Sunday on how to create your own accessibility board game. (You can also participate remotely, but I think it costs 50€, so let me know if you’re interested, I can send you the link) Advertising it with this masterful visual. #accessibility

Feeling this, little boar.

In a training. Today we had some official test questions. They were posed in such an unnecessarily complicated manner, that even with 1st language knowledge no one understood them. Teacher: eh, that’s the way it is. No! This is gatekeeping. There’s no need for this language. Make them accessible!

Another piece from a few years ago whose generally lukewarm reception was rather unequal to my own fondness for it. 🥲Perhaps because of the subject? Garden snail (_Cornu aspersum_), approximately 105 x 60 mm. Watercolour on vintage J Whatman paper from 1940. #Invertefest

May I offer Leuchtturm1917 notebooks as a lovely German alternative to Moleskine. Come in nice colours, too.

Preeeetty cool!

Just learned that I’ve forgotten to stock up on his favourite snacks.

Damn, I want one of those sensor covers. caljewellery.com/pages/diabet...

Luckily I found a job, but on behalf of all jobseekers, to every company that posts ghost jobs “just to check out the market”: Go fuck yourselves.

Sick does not equal lazy no matter what the fucking government says.

That’s the job I actually got, by the way. So I have to thank the lil’ bastard for it now, I guess.

And does one of my favourite podcasts ever, too.

OFFERING ** PET PORTRAITS ** rules & prices in following posts!

This is so good, so I’m gonna have a crack at an alt text to this image: A black ink pen drawing with very dense hatching of a cloaked black cat lurking behind some coastal rocks. Thick, dark clouds in the back. The highlights are set on the intense, squinting eyes and the serious face of the cat.

Blemfie appears when you need cheering up, which they try to do by doing this dance.

Meet my newest creations: the Gloom-Wilders. I designed and hand-sewed them, and I hand-embroidered all their flowers, stars, and markings. They're a family of spirits who live in a haunted woodland (haunted because they live there). jeremycreature.bigcartel.com

I have some more £10 drawings available now and also £45 character sheets, which is a drawing of your character and many items surrounding them! Please send me a message if you would like one, thank you!

I… I just signed a work contract today. For a job as an accessibility tester. I can’t believe it! Omg omg omg!

Hosting a workshop with two other people for creating your own accessibility board game in May. Wondering if I should offer participants some quick doodles they can use for their games in this style. Good idea, bad idea?

It won't stop raining here in Wales so I'm left with no choice but to blame the Welsh water horse tricksters for it

If you are enforcing an office-only policy, you are telling me that your company prefers people who are good at concentrating and are thriving in busy environments, who have sound immune systems. And that you don’t trust employees to determine the work conditions they can do their best job in.

Little alt text tip: If the relevant image description is already in your post, you don’t need to double it in the alt text. Nobody needs to hear the same thing twice. However, alt text must make sense on its own when describing the image. It’s not the same as an image caption underneath.

Thanks to my lovely cat who decided to get his very loud zoomies during a job interview I can now add “shushing the interviewer” to my list of hilarious fails.

Have some Gamma progress in these trying times. You better bet Gamma is typing exclusively with two fingers.

Because it made me smile, here’s the alt text: Screenshot of a pixel retro game showing Godzilla walking through a big city, below a commentary box with a Japanese woman saying “Go ahead and destroy AI data Centers, Godzilla. Make the people happy.”

Original artwork still available to purchase directly from me. Very affordable if I say so myself. Email: [email protected]

With the complete dilution of the disability laws in Germany at the moment, you better believe I will annoy even more people by talking about accessibility being a 🤬 human right.

If you have the means, please donate to the Trans Continental Pipeline right now. They are a Colorado based org that helps trans people relocate and they are overwhelmed with requests. Colorado borders Kansas, and TCP has the infrastructure to help get people out. tcpipeline.org

Just learned that there is a US TV evangelist with this actual name.

Currently working through the BITV, the German digital accessibility guidelines for public bodies, and I’m amazed at how easy to understand and well documented they are. That’s not very German of them! 😂

"I couldn’t accept that #accessibility tools were priced out of reach for so many people." An innovative high school student has created a practical, affordable #braille keyboard - and has distributed more than 100 of them through his nonprofit. ⌨️ #BlindNewWorld (Story via @nj.com ⬇️)

At this point going to the US is more of a Shirley Jackson “The Lottery” situation.

New Peaches album is phantastic, so happy she’s back! Wish I had more cash, she’s coming to my city, too.

Did you hear about the scientists that tried to cross a cheetah with a crab? Things went sideways real fast.

It’s been 5 years with my live-in already. Here he is, giving me the stink eye for letting it get rather cold.
