A great thing happened today. After a lot of hard work I finally launched the redesign of my website. 🎉 I’m in love with my new typeface and the simple, typography-focused design. I also explored some neat page-transition animations. It has a sustainability score better than 98% of all websites and is fully accessible even with complex animations. Crossing the finish line feels great. #Design #UI #FrontEnd #CSS #JavaScript #Animation #Website #Redesign #WebDesign
This is the best photo I could get of this bumper sticker while I was at a stop light. For those with visual challenges, it reads “trans people existing does nothing negative to your life, you cry baby bitch.” #LGBTQ #Trans #TransRightsAreHumanRights image
Accessibility poll for people who use screen readers for daily use. I’m writing a guide about alt text. 🧵 Poll 1 of 2: I’d like your opinion about alt-text length for simple images. How long should it be? (Feel free to comment if you want to elaborate.) Please boost for reach. 🙌🏻 #Accessibility #A11y #ScreenReaders #AltText #WCAG #UI #FrontEnd
It was thought that the Jedi were forced into the shadows. But they are hiding in plain sight. At the mall. #Jedi #StarWars #SciFi #LightSabers image
It’s interesting how many people think wanting privacy means you’re doing something nefarious. The fact is, privacy is about sharing what you want with whom you choose. (I don’t recall who wrote these words or where I originally saw them. I only made the graphic.) #Privacy #InfoSec #OpSec #BigBrother image

RE: I’ve been following @Cory Doctorow for a while, but I’ve never seen him interviewed. This was absolutely captivating. Truly. There were like fifteen bites I wanted to capture. Cory is super smart. And his brain seems to work at the same speed my ADHD brain does, which helps me absorb what he’s saying. (Pro tip: watch in DuckDuckGo, @npub1awdt...ywqh, or @npub19xtr...dnvd to avoid tracking.) #Enshittification #SocialMedia #TheDailyShow #CoryDoctorow View quoted note →
In May Ilhan Omar introduced H.R. 3651: Protecting Our Protesters Act of 2025. It’s literally just adding one line to 18 U.S. Code § 242: “Including the use of force during a response to a protest.” In short, using excessive force against protesters becomes a federal crime. That’s it. But it has a 1% chance of being enacted.
