Ok the Apple TV app finally refreshed and the option to watch the keynote can be found on the home tab. AD was selected by default when I began playback. #AudioDescription

Every time I hear “they were a product of their time,” to justify racism, I think to this piece by Barbarity vs Civilisation by René Georges Hermann-Paul. Clearly “the time” (1899) had anti-racist sentiment, too. “The era” is no excuse.

Couldn’t be more excited for Radko. A great leader and even better human. I’ll be sitting down with him today to talk about it for Ducks Stream!

And another one. See for Me. This film has an audio description track produced by Audio Eyes. And the main character in this film is #blind. I'll just leave that here without further comment

Hi Audio Description Project, Terrifier 2 was described on Prime Video. I watched it a couple years ago, and it was also identified on your site as a described title. However, the AD track has disappeared from Prime. Can you please raise this with Amazon? I will also email them directly

Question for anyone using braille screen input in iOS 18. When I'm in a text message, the three finger swipe up gesture is not activating the send button. Did this change? Is it currently broken? All I'm getting is the bonk of doom. #braille #iOS #BSI #voiceover #a11y

2024 has been a rollercoaster. Didn't like how the ride started, but the current loop-de-loop has deposited me in Los Angeles, where I've taken on the role of Vp, Accessibility & Employment, with Braille Institute. I'm amped up to execute transformative initiatives centering blindness

Good news: This cutie delivered my breakfast today. The bad: Interacting with the Coco Robotics delivery bot via Uber Eats is not #accessible with #voiceover on #iOS. The fix should be very easy for the devs. I'm here to help if anyone on the team is reading this. #a11y #blind

Attention Hulu Hulu Support, #AudioDescription for Handmaid's Tale s6 e8 was not included at the time of release. You wouldn't disrespect the millions who use cc this way. Handle your business. It's not difficult. #blind #LowVision
