@AidanJohnMoffat Time to leave, flower.

It's not you. 99% of interactions on here are from the terminally thick or just angry imminent heart attack victims. It's not a place for creatives.

Oh my sweet summer child.

Like a stoned 1st year politics student at the end of Freshers week, #BBCLauraK is getting guests to rank their favourite cultures. Drunk 3rd year Badenoch is pitching for separating each one into "cool / not cool". Hopefully next week they'll repurpose the Top Gear 'cool wall'

[devolute @devolute]

On the big issues (like how much should we obsess over immigration: completely or just most of the time) @RobertJenrick doesn't want to "debate these things" as that's damaging to the party, he wants to "settle these things". I wonder what that means? Possibly nothing #BBCLauraK

@CAPsurvey @drmonkeyninja Small businesses are exempt from #EEA rules - so important if you're dealing with businesses who not only have no concern for their (disabled?) customers but also have no desire for growth! #FrontEndSheff

TIL 1/12 men have red-green color-blindness. It's not just a horrible stylistic choice that makes you look like a cheap Christmas decoration, it's an #a11y gotcha.
Learning from @drmonkeyninja at @FrontEndSheff #FrontEndSheff

[devolute @devolute]

@CAPsurvey `@drmonkeyninja makes a case against off-the-shelf 'accessibility widgets': "It's fools gold", they often make #a11y problems worse.

[#FrontEndSheff @FrontEndSheff]

At tonight's #FrontEndSheff at @showroomcinema we're learning why we need to care about accessibility with @drmonkeyninja

[#FrontEndSheff @FrontEndSheff]

After a long summer, we're back next Thursday (26th Sep) with @drmonkeyninja on #a11y & 'Key motivators for an accessible web'. I wonder what they will be?
🚨 New venue @showroomcinema cafe, but still in #Sheffield city center & still free tickets:
