I’m excited to announce the availability of one of the first elements of the vision for building the best-in-class experience for the D/HH in Teams. This new experience was driven by and with the members of the community. We’re just getting started. Lots of goodness to come.

So... what's a good last message?

Thanks for teaching me about Inclusive Design and accessibility, and introducing me to DesignOps. I literally wouldn't be doing what I do now without you.

Seems like a good time to convene a workhop on Mastodon basics. Blind and #a11Y allied folks - anyone actually - let's do this! nypl.zoom.us/meeting/regist…

Someone please let me know where all the zoo accounts migrate to. Especially you Oregon Zoo 🐘

Low-key stressed about Twitter. I quit my job 6 months ago to be an artist focusing on climate communication I've met all my amazing clients here. Just in case y'all leave, I'm looking to find a few recurring clients or larger projects Retweets appreciated + DMs open ❤️

Happy otterversary to young Lincoln, Prince of Sea Pups, who joined our sea otter family five years ago today after he was found as an orphan and rescued by Monterey Bay Aquarium.

As a gift to yourself, your loved ones and your community this holiday season, I am BEGGING you to wear masks, so that fewer people have to wear hardware like this, as I have been. (It’s much harder to wear than a mask!!) And I am REALLY begging govt offials to create mandates.

I'm super excited for today's new Urban Institute #DoNoHarmGuide report on #accessibility in the data and data visualization spaces. Nine amazing authors provide you with practical ways to help you create better, more accessible projects. A 🧵 | urban.org/research/publi…
