poor Thumbelina really does just get harassed by insecure men the entire movie, eh? 😂 Still, a great movie, perfect pacing for kids. Also, I really don't think there's enough love for the songs in this one. Some of the most iconic and gorgeous backgrounds by @donbluth.bsky.social and his team.

Thumbelina and Jaquimo lay on a rock ledge surrounded by large, dandelions under a purple and blue twilight sky with floating seeds.

new med adjustment periods are the worst... I never know how transparent to be about it if it's a struggle (and this time it is). Usually 2 weeks is what I need, but it's a real crash to the confidence when you're feeling useless and nervous about results in that time

Can't sleep so here are my thoughts on PDFs. They are useful in limited situations but overused. Accessibility peeps know how inaccessible they are by default. Many orgs shouldn't use them due to regular edits of the document content and would be better off using HTML, EPUB, etc. 1/2

Why do bumblebees love my sunroom? They keep trying to get in. Then they get in and they want out. Do I need to install a bumblebee door as well as my cat door? 🐝

I haven't seen a movie as good as Sinners in a long time. Wow. Easily my new favourite vampire movie. It may be my new favourite movie... Ever... Man. So amazing!! If you haven't seen it, definitely check it out!

Me: there's a bear in this movie! Kid: oh. I don't like bears. Me: oh, really? Kid: yeah. But I like monsters and spiders though! And snakes. Me: you're the coolest.

Deque scrubbed its axe-con talk — with its goal of 100% coverage in automated WCAG testing — from YouTube and its event page with no acknowledgment that I’ve seen. I captured slides, transcript, and YouTube chat, but not video itself (anchor): adrianroselli.com/2025/03/be-w... #a11y #accessibility

Be Wary of Accessibility Guarantees from Anyone

TL;DR: anyone promising you that a total solution to digital accessibility is coming, and they are the ones bringing it, may be lying. Background In 2016 I wrote Be Wary of Accessibility Guarantees fr...

It's interesting to think as an autistic person I've gone so long without small personal accommodations in the name of performing "normally". I tend to not wear my earplugs in public... But moments like now? I really need to do better to be kind to myself about it. It's so much easier to function.

There is a specific sense of professional struggle I feel when I'm learning new things and advancing. It's the professional "level up" and it comes with a lot of imposter syndrome and feeling like I'm bad at my job. I'll get there. But the level up is a rough one.
