Hi! You might know me from GDQ speedruns or gaming accessibility advocacy. Starting May 2021 I'll be an Accessibility Project Manager at Ubisoft! Wow!

So well deserved! The team put in such incredible accessibility work by design! So happy for them right now!🙌🙌

[The Game Awards @thegameawards]

Can we get some noise for @princeofpersia in the chat?! They just won Innovation In Accessibility!. @Ubisoft #TheGameAwards

I think I'm done posting here, but if you go to the butterfly site you can see my first tattoo: Kirby's face on my bicep💪

A very valuable series of explanations for why
full screen colorblind filters are a wholly ineffective solution for colorblindness and create a bunch of new barriers for players instead.

Good contrast and mindful color choices go a long way for visual accessibility :)

[Ian Hamilton @ianhamilton_]

@momoxmia @LaurakBuzz TLDR: if you can only see X number of hues and a game required differentiating X+1 hues, you'll always be one short no matter how filter swap hues around, e.g. shift green to blue and you can now tell green/red apart.. but at the expense of being able to tell green/blue apart...

@MallowNinja OOO, that's also good

Spoogily is probably the most common gibberish I use with my cat. Even with a consistent meaning.

Spoogily: crossing the stimulation threshold between enjoying being petted and wanting to fight or play.
Ex: "His pupils got big and I could tell he was feeling spoogily."

[Clinton Lexa @halfcoordinated]

It's a good thing cats don't need to fully understand English, because otherwise I'm sure me saying "Oh you're feeling kinda spoogily? I'll leave you be then." would be very confusing to my cat.

I rolled credits in Returnal today. What an experience! Not sure I fully "get" the ending but I'm glad I managed to get there. The difficulty spike at the midpoint sure is a lot😮‍💨

Not only are they destroying Lebanon and 🍉, but frequently using new experimental weapons that cause brutal damage and/or banned weapons with phosphorus or depleted uranium.

It's mind boggling that they have so much impunity to get away with all this.

I've never watched Bluelock before, but this popped up on Crunchyroll and my first thought was "Damn, them boys stinky"

[Grant Stoner @Super_Crip1994]

I'm super excited to announce that I'm officially writing a book about the accessibility movement in gaming! I'll be sure to share more details as they develop, but I'm looking forward to this project!

[Clinton Lexa @halfcoordinated]

I've defended earth enough in EDF 6 to remove armor and weapon level limits in online play and that gives me extra cool points.

[Clinton Lexa @halfcoordinated]

@unsecretcrush Oh as far as how useful it is- it's not great at all. Pretty sure no one is ever going to see a giraffe standing on the head of another giraffe🤣 The absurdity is very amusing

[Clinton Lexa @halfcoordinated]

Reading about what will be a temporary mini moon and "two giraffes" is an incredible size reference.

Makes me want to play Katamari Damacy

It's my birthday! Yeah I have covid and that sucks. My symptoms are somewhere between a rough cold and a mild to moderate flu though. I'm a bit behind on boosters but I'm sure it would be a lot worse for me without the vaccine!

[Clinton Lexa @halfcoordinated]

Me: I'll take next week off following my birthday on Saturday and recharge so well!

Also me: catches COVID just before my time off

[Clinton Lexa @halfcoordinated]

@Bbforky I haven't been in several years but this is a good list. Millennium Force rocks.
