    When i start the day only meaning to go to work, pick up my prescriptions and go home and also add in three hours arguing with DHL because they were more focused on their corp policy rather than fixing their mistake and I get to read them the riot act and use my Don’t F with me, Sport! voice on a DHL manager, I know almost anything is possible from today.

    If you’ll excuse me, I need to exchange all my #Apple gear for Microsoft and Android. At least they have a way for me to sync ringtones and their accessibility help desks give you answers other than, Well it works for us so we don’t know what the problem is.

    Question: Who is gina and how does she organize the chaos? And how did she establish ownership over the chaos once she organized it?

    🧞 When you enter a social situation and someone misgenders you—not a huge deal, then makes such a show of correcting that everyone in the room has a front row seat to to the shit show… That, I’ve just discovered, is worse than someone getting it wrong by accident to begin with or just not giving a fuck and doing whatever they want..

    I now have a Guest Appearances page that has links to all of my guest spots and guest hosting events.

    This is definitely worth listening to, particularly the part about Braille books being burned. If you don’t see parody between that and what is going on now, I’d love to try on your realitiy blinders.

    I completely agree with this. lots of sites are “accessible”, but confusing as hell.

    When we are talking to technology companies like Microsoft, Google, Apple, Amazon and others we need to move their focus away from "compliance" and talk about "usability". It isn't enough to be "compliant". Often this doesn't mean anything in the scheme of things. The true test is how usable is the technology we are buying and using in the market. Let's turn up the heat and hold these companies to account to ensure that not only are things accessible but they are truly usable.

    Thank you for the kind words. also, for the chance to appear as part of this important project.

    One feature micro.blog has that other social networks don’t have or don’t do as well: AI generates alt text for images. they artistic descriptions, but at least I know what I’m looking at.

    Be a lamb and sing Mary Had a Little Lamb for me, Won’t you? Thanks.

    Reply with Your Affirmations to Acknowledge Be my Eyes' New Inclusive language Guide!!!

    Received Be My Eyes’ Inclusive Language Guide. I am surprised by some of the results, particularly the ease with which person-first language (a lot of work for no pay-off in my experienced opinion as a receiver of this language) is being ushered out the door. I acknolwledge I have some unlearning to do in this area, mostly pushing back on the administrations’ idea that person-first language is still correct. FTR, I still taking each person’s lead on which language you use is still the most fullproof way to go.

    @pawpower I forgot to tell you you were right about the holy bites.

    Question for us to consider: How does it make you feel when a person is playing music for a group and someone says, “It’s not worth listening to if we don’t know what it means?” This refers to music with lyrics in other languages.

    Thanks to the customizability of micro.blog, I was able to provide a description for my avatar. Enjoy.

    The #Apple health app says there’s been a trend in my activity and workkout time lately. I can neither confirm nor deny this change.

    I mentioned a couple of days ago that I was gearing up for a day at the beach. Someone expressed interest in my experiences as a synesthete and a 🧑🏼‍🦯. All I can say about the motion of the ocean and my own movement to stay up are probably the closest I’ll ever come to knowing how a 🐉 feels when it flies. Trying to go beyond that would just involve a lot of descriptions people wouldn’t be able to process. All I have beyond that are a couple pictures and a playlist of songs that enhance the sounds, texture, color and overall experience of the beach.

    Some of you may remember me talking about being on a webqast called “This Book is Cool.”. I just received the email with the finished product. See my photos page

    😎 There are two things I want by the time summer is over:

    1. starshipchangeling.net is established as my place on the Internet.
    2. I want to be changeling. As someone British once said, “Don’t dream it; be it.”

    Getting ready for a day at the beach tomorrow! My favorite thing about this chair, it rocks. I’m Changeling, the Rocking Chair Dude!🧜🧞
