8a/100 #100DaysOfCode Had an interview today so spent most of the day prepping for that. Think I’m going to ignore the ‘no zero day’ rule tomorrow, cos I feel like my brain is craving a zero day!

I didn't write an #ADA31 post because my message this year is short: One line of code software -- accessiBe, UserWay and others - will not protect site owners from #ADA lawsuits. And they harm #disabled tech users. The Overlay Fact Sheet explains: overlayfactsheet.com

Modals truly seem like one of the boss battles of #a11y Creating An Accessible Dialog From Scratch smashingmagazine.com/2021/07/access… via Smashing Magazine 🇺🇦 🏳️‍🌈

Did u know that WCAG 2.2 adds 2 success criteria that define the requirements for keyboard focus indicators to be considered accessible? 👀 I dug into them & wrote a (7000+ word!) guide to designing & implementing WCAG-compliant focus indicators ✨ sarasoueidan.com/blog/focus-ind… #a11y

In 1994, the widget thing in the Guinness can won invention of the year (based on a public vote in the UK) beating out THE INTERNET to the award.

I’m so used to blind people saying they thought I was white, it doesn’t surprise me now. When you do image descriptions, don’t skip race. Don’t leave room for harmful assumptions. This is #intersectionality. I made a video on inclusive descriptions youtube.com/watch?v=gCcsp7… #a11y

Just found out I passed my #IAAPCPACC exam - hooray! I learned a lot of interesting stuff about #a11y studying for it

Things you need to know from me, a native, before you come to Edinburgh for the Fringe: 1. You're NOT MEANT TO TOUCH BOBBYS NOSE. It damages the statue & you clog up the pavements. Locals will judge you. 2. If you want, you can buy a deepfried Mars Bar, but no one will care.

🥪🌟LINE-UP ANNOUNCEMENT🌟🥪 Saturday 6th August 2022 @mickmcneill91 Fearghas Kelly Giulia Galastro tickets.edfringe.com/whats-on/lunch…

Had the grossest uncalled for heckle today at my fringe show. It's not on. Don't be a heckler, don't be a creep and don't view a woman at her work as your misguided sexual fantasy.

I’m on here once in a blue moon, only just spotted this nice photo of me as ruff diamond Lord Harrington, having an absolute blast at the awesome ACMS
