LUCASARTS PRESENTS Columbo in: SCUMM of the Earth #pixelart

Do I know anyone (or anyone who knows anyone) who has had any joy in enforcement of the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018? The Equality Advisory Advice Service (EASS) who formally accept breach reports seem to be useless. Pls boost.

When you're trying to find something decent in the Steam NextFest...

The Online Safety Act sure has made being online more dangerous.

Compulsory ID cards would be a bad idea at the best of times, but imagine trying to bring them in when there's a very serious threat of a properly far-right government coming in at the next election.

This combo is so tailored to my tastes that I already own both of the games. Recommended.

Sharing this archiving of bisexual-umbrella man/masculine writings project at www.biarkiv.se Seems pretty inclusive definition and "bi men" are often underrecognised in stuff. Please share this so people can see it, and contribute or read if interested.

Did you used to make LiveJournal icons? Do you still have some of the ones that you made? I'm looking to include more icons in the second print run of my LiveJournal Iconic zine and would love to see yours! Share them here: form.jotform.com/252444103676...

Upcoming this week!

Oh, jazz! We've got a review by @cjisbadatlife.bsky.social of Tiny Bookshop, which combines his love of books and video games. It's a great read about reading! maxutmost.com/review-tiny-...

Our analysis maps a web of 65 anti-rights groups operating across the UK, including anti-abortion organisations, groups promoting so-called "conversion therapy" & UK branches of powerful US organisations. Read the analysis here 👇🏾 www.amnesty.org.uk/anti-rights

Fortunately, Softober is still available on itch.io ! We recently initiated another donation of $460 USD to waterislifegaza.org Thanks to everyone who's got a copy so far, and donation screenshots in comment to follow!

The Welsh Government are doing a consultation on its pro-trans schools policy. UK GCs are trying to push it in an anti-trans direction. If you possibly can, please join me in filling out the consultation to reinforce the pro-trans stance. Deadline 31 July. www.gov.wales/rights-respe...

The Government claims they are cutting benefits to 'encourage' Disabled people into work. Yet with a disability pay gap of 17%, a underfunded Access to Work programme and reasonable adjustments overwhelmingly ignored, it is employers, not us, who need the incentive. DR UKs Dan White on @lbc.co.uk

My first assignment as a junior writer was the emails + news articles in Batman: The Enemy Within. I built out the world, deepened characters, + rewarded players with branched text that reflected their choices. In-game text can make the world feel like a handcrafted love letter, or a chore list.

If it’s unacceptable now, it’s not acceptable for the person newly disabled next year either. And all they’ll do is rebrand PIP as a new benefit with new rates and it’ll all be gone, just as they did with DLA. Please don’t concede for legacy protection. #TakingTheDis

Wordatro, a Balatro inspired RogueLite about scoring points by spelling words using tiles, releases today! I worked on the game earlier this year as an accessibility consultant / playtester. It releases in 2 hours, and has a demo available now! store.steampowered.com/app/3140120/...

Open eugenics with just the barest, most pathetic tissue of lies across the top for pretence of civility. Everyone fighting like hell for trans rights - we need to be fighting this too. They're all connected - and we're all we've got.

Very happy to see the founder of Pregnant then Screwed coming out in support of the only amendment that actually decriminalises abortion. This chance may not come again so, please, use our tool and ask your MP to vote for NC20. It takes seconds action.goodlawproject.org/decriminalis....

If you're a British trans person or ally I really think you MUST fill in the EHRC consultation on whether to segregate trans people from society If you need a hand doing that, @notrightruth.bsky.social and I will be doing a respond together live stream Tuesday 8pm! www.youtube.com/watch?v=4wfw...

It is never acceptable to remove a #disabled person’s aids unless it’s necessary to reduce an immediate threat to safety. Israel’s wheelchair should never have been taken from him. #disability justice and equality is needed. #TakingTheDis www.salamandernews.org/police-impou...

The Access-Ability Summer Showcase 2025 is airing Friday June 6th at 4pm UK, 11am Eastern, 8am Pacific. 52 Mins, 20+ Games. Regular: www.youtube.com/watch?v=0tbu... ASL: www.youtube.com/watch?v=1haL... BSL: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qg7I... Audio Described: www.youtube.com/watch?v=z3d4...

Finally made it through the GP eConsult form in a mere 1hr 50 minutes.

Basic guidance from @transactualuk.bsky.social on EHRC response now up. Bookmark the page, as it will expand as new information and content appears: transactual.org.uk/equality-act...

Also, asking homeowners for permission would kill the burglary industry.

Guidelines were described as: “fuelling a culture of hostility and suspicion towards abortion and pregnancy loss”. We can see where this is leading…

Doing a stress-busting replay of INFRA, a forever classic of exposed rebar, horrible health and safety, and stuff that was definitely already broken when I came in.

Mailing campaign to the EHRC to do their consultation properly. This is for people to do prior to the consultation starts to give them pressure. We will be adding the link to this on the top of our website as soon as we can.

I fucking love migration actually, 'cause I like living in a community, and having friends and family.

Can someone invent a dog pill delivery mechanism in the form of a buzzing fly?

Wow my arm is feeling extremely vaccinated right now. Go immune system!...and also ugh.

I know I'm tired when I read 'vaccine safety' as 'volcano safety'

1000xResist is one of the best scifi games I've ever played, and I hope it wins All The Awards.

Thank you @peabodyawards.bsky.social for this incredible honor!!! 🙏🙏🙏 Truly an honor of a lifetime.

The Access-Ability Summer Showcase is just one month away. 45+ mins of trailers for upcoming, accessibility focused video games. ASL, BSL, and Audio Descriptions. A steam page for all the games. Reaction streams encouraged. Press previews available upon request. LauraKBuzz on YT and Twitch.

Absolutely insane. Uneblieveable. "Sex Matters", one of the hate groups responsible for removing trans people's rights via the Supreme Court are arguing that trans people shouldn't be allowed to transition because they don't have rights and not having rights is bad. Fucking hell

”Today, WFP delivered its last remaining food stocks to hot meals kitchens in the Gaza Strip. These kitchens are expected to fully run out of food in the coming days.”

As expected the EHRC have pushed out utterly transphobic drivel as guidance which will have a hugely damaging impact on trans people. Trans Rights in the UK yet further dismantled. Fuck the EHRC, fuck the Supreme Court, Fuck the Government. This guidance is nothing short of a human rights violation
