- starshipchangeling.net is established as my place on the Internet.
- I want to be changeling. As someone British once said, “Don’t dream it; be it.”
Question: Who is gina and how does she organize the chaos? And how did she establish ownership over the chaos once she organized it?
😸 Changeling has stripped all of the sheets off the bed for washing. I am staging a protest by lying on the mattress and pretending like nothing is wrong until the sheets are returned. #CatsOfMastodon
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.
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.
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:
Getting ready for a day at the beach tomorrow! My favorite thing about this chair, it rocks. I’m Changeling, the Rocking Chair Dude!🧜🧞
Does anyone have an answer, Apple accessibility still hasn’t gotten back to me and nobody on AppleVis seems to know. thanks.
With the exception of linkedIn, which I don’t consider to be social media, I’ve deactivated all of my social media. micro.blog has everything I could ever want.
