FE Dev morphing into an Accessibility Champion. Frustrated on behalf of others because… come on! Constantly learning.

Does anyone have access to YouTube videos where people self describe at the beginning?
Many thanks

QQ - should profile pics have alt text?
What is the value of knowing I’m a blonde middle aged white woman?
Should alt text in profile pics be more character aligned, ‘happy, relaxed and smiling’. Or is it more about making a level playing field?
All thoughts welcome!

This is Thomas O’Halloran the 87 year old man who was murdered by an African savage in West London.

May He Rest In Peace

NEW: Detectives investigating the stabbing of 87-year-old Thomas O’Halloran in Greenford release CCTV images of a man seen running from the scene armed with a knife.

@metpoliceuk urge anyone who sees him to call 999 immediately.

Reading the replies to this like “you should have stayed and pushed for the change” makes me so angry. It’s frankly fucking exhausting to have to do all the thankless labor on top of our already demanding eng work. We just want to focus on building and shipping cool stuff too.

[a11y_Kat @KatA11y]

@CatchTheseWords Oh and … good luck!

[a11y_Kat @KatA11y]

haven’t been on this feed for a while.
Not nice things happening IRL, the developer next to me is a crook.
I’m not posting deets, you all have enough to contend with.
But it’s a lovely space to come back to.
I have lots of positive a11y news, will share when I have more spoons x

Both good.
Both very different.
Read first.
Get angry.
Then watch x

@wonder_cripple 100%
I’m a digital accessibility SME and I’m the arbiter of the first 10% of a site.

Nothing about you, without you.
I’m just the driver x

[a11y_Kat @KatA11y]

@RunnerVi @blindandb0ujee @saj_anderson Um. In the hope that this sh1t show had an impact?

[a11y_Kat @KatA11y]

Wee done and good luck.

[a11y_Kat @KatA11y]

@blindandb0ujee I’ll DM you

Sharing an observation that having just attended the two largest US events organized by blind consumers, and like-wise being blind myself, it was refreshing not to have session speakers describing themselves. #acb22 #nfb22
