Ashlee is one of the best and someone needs to bring Ashlee on to their team to make it better than it was before. If I had the means to pay, I’d bring Ashlee on to my little team for my project in an instant. Ashlee knows her stuff!

Hire @ashleemboyer.com. Not because she had a hard year, but because she is damn good at what she does.

Ashlee knows her stuff, do get in touch if you could use someone with accessibility skills on your next project

Ashlee is good people. And she knows her shit. Please help if you can.

📌

Ashlee is lovely to work with, and I recommend checking out her experience if you're looking for a new team member or even just have some contract work!

I've had an execeptionally tough year. I have no income or health insurance, and could really use your help finding my next paid project. 💜 semanticfish.com/2025-year-in... Open to front-end, full-stack, design system, & accessibility projects. 10+ years experience. Many more details in post!

Can’t wait to read this new piece from @lizjackson.bsky.social and @fractalecho.bsky.social! These two are absolutely brillant.

My focus point was the huge amount of anxiety I feel when job/contract hunting. I found a few connections to the why, and as for short term solutions, I realized I’m stuck in survival mode from losing my Grandma. I’ve been shoving feeling down so long, I do it for all the feelings now.

Had my first brainspotting session today, never had anything like it or emdr before. Super fascinating. Good connections.

I wish I could just write and create and tinker and build. I’m simulataneously angry and sad I can’t. I wish I could figure out how to channel all that feeling into what I need to do. I feel stuck.

Just updated my mac to tahoe and now everything has an obnoxious corner radius

I knew Bluesky would delete this page today because they’ve deleted all my shares this week- this was Dina’s first page ever here and here’s what it looked like this morning- no tags, no spam, following only 45 people.

PSA this "joke" that ASL interpreters can't follow Trump is exceptionally unoriginal, not even remotely accurate, and so. fucking. annoying. Here's 30 replies to ONE post. Just stop. Bc if you only mention #accessibility when you're trying to insult someone's intelligence, you're no ally to me.

In an extraordinary rebuke to Donald Trump, the Indiana state Senate rejected a gerrymandered congressional map pushed by the president that would have given Republicans a lopsided 9-0 advantage in the state’s House delegation.

I met a single mother this week who’s trying her best to keep Christmas alive in a hotel room. She and her three kids have been homeless for more than a month. “It’s gotta be something else for us.”

If you read one thing today, it should be this story from @tyfenwick.bsky.social “I do everything right,” mom of 3 Precious Sarver said, “and I end up here.” mirrorindy.org/indianapolis...

One way I didn’t know how grief like this can change you: Every single movie and show I watch, the experience is completely different. If I’ve seen it before, it’s almost like watching for the first time again.

Extra hard week. No particular reason other than grief choosing to show up differently than last week. Can’t go a minute lovingly remembering her without my brain promptly spiraling to thoughts of never seeing her again. 😔

When this "AI" bubble pops, the men pretending they weren't pushing the hype, like "critics" whose position is "AGI is real but LLMs aren't the way," who were in eugenicist and "AI existential risk"🙄 circles, will get specials discussing what they saw coming, when its the women who told you so.

Idk how to navigate the most painful loss of my entire life, not having an income, a terrible job market, daily breaking news at every govn’t level, winter season chronic pains and sinus issues. Universe, cut me a little break will ya?

I can see them coming after PDF document accessibility remediations.

Yeah a lot of people who don't pay attention to Disabled folks and Disability-related topics probably have similar takes. It's actually part of a really fucking horrible trend from the current regime, though, to continue to reverse decisions made specifically because they increased accessibility.

Does anyone know what was said/asked before what he said in this video?

Heavy heart tonight 💔

A 125-year-old dairy barn will be turned into the Contemporary Art Museum of Indianapolis (CAMi), opening May 1, 2026 in the Garfield Park neighborhood. The 40,000-sq-ft museum will have multiple galleries, artist studios, storefronts and a café: https://bit.ly/44PPPFk

This is what Newsom should do, instead of staging photo opps to destroy homeless people’s belongings.

We're not supposed to execute people with intellectual disabilities because it violates the 8th amendment. The Supreme Court will hear a case where Alabama argues that Intellectual disability when it comes to death penalty should only be decided only by IQ tests. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

PMC estimates that 1 in 45 in Indiana have active covid infections? 😣 pmc19.com/data

In my first college term, my last of three major papers got a 0. I didn’t know how to cite or paraphrase so it was plagiarism. I failed the class and it ruined my GPA. High school didn’t teach me how to write. But lovely, patient college profs did and I ended with a minor in lang & lit.

OU's actions are fucking ridiculous. The essay sucked. It got a bad grade BECAUSE IT SUCKED. The instructor is being targeted bc they're trans. The rubric was extremely clear. There were EIGHT!! example approaches given. It's a scientific class. The precedent this sets is NOT. GOOD. AT. ALL.

You know the dreams or sounds that jolt you awake? That’s kinda how grief has felt for me regularly. It’s sudden, makes me pause, and I feel like I have to catch my breath.

Holy shit. It lets you set MARGINS. ACTUAL CSS MARGINS. In addition to CSS padding!! This teeny tiny feature might be the singular one that wins me over 🤣

A bit of a vulnerable post by me but we need your help to get us through what has been a more difficult period than 2020. It would be really appreciated if you could read and share in your networks too 💛 bell.bz/its-been-a-v...

Who’s got opinions on Penpot? Thinking about switching design tools, self-hosted seems very cool. penpot.app

I don’t believe in work-life balance. I call it work-life equilibrium.

31, please be kinder than 30. 30 really broke my heart. ❤️‍🩹

Captions help please! 🙏🏻 I’m deaf w residual hearing, can’t make out the accuracy of the CC on this video due to so many overlapping voices. youtu.be/2i9iAr3hWu4 It’s also missing some level of person distinction. Can anyone provide a more accurate transcript? #Alt4Me #AltForMe

Does anyone know where kids find the AUDACITY to tear up shit they didn’t pay any money for???! Buddy this is the only new couch I’ve ever purchased and it was thousands $$$ pls stop 🥲

Anyone have an explain-like-I-take-everything-literally for flashbacks to traumatic memories?

Turning 31 soon. The fucking turmoil I feel. I love aging as a disabled person, bc our mere existence is resistance. It’s also my 1st birthday without my beloved Grandma. I miss her so fucking much. It’s the worst pain I’ve felt in my entire life. It sucks having a near-holidays birthday.

I’m reminded of Alice’s early 2024 medical emerg. People went SO FAR beyond boundaries… & contacted the hospital. She later quotes s.e. smith on parasocial interactions: marginalized ppl will become more & more quiet online as their boundaries are crossed. www.teenvogue.com/story/covid-...

today is also my birthday and it would be great if you contributed to this!!!!

Today is my birthday. I would like many things but from you specifically I want $2,500 for @scarleteen.com's annual fundraiser, which is supporting staff & volunteer healthcare this year. We need $2,500 to unlock a $10,000 match and this would really make my day! Donate to my campaign page here.

Some abled parents of disabled people are the most violent ableists. They use their children as tools to demonstrate their heroism in shouldering the burden of taking care of a disabled person, think they’re incapable of ableism, and say the experience of a caretaker is the same as being disabled.

But in all seriousness, shit is about to get really fucking worse in Indiana. I deeply fear the upcoming legislative session.
