accessibility tooling, design
for blind or vision impaired, having the application hide everything that the screen reader wouldn't see would be a great feature. you could think of this as a 'text' version of the application even, but spatially hiding elements and just position the text the screen reader would read over the elements would bypass the need to install a screen reader or learn to espeak (impossible if you're deaf too) as well as not give a sense of a sense of familiarity

it's (current year), why is it so hard for developers to make software accessible? it's ironic to think that software accessibility is inaccessible. it's something everyone wants to do, but it's just difficult to do. one thing that technology can actually help with is making things accessible and easy to do, so let's dream of what would be cool to have

Worldwide Day of Genital Autonomy

Essential workers don't need cheering in the streets, they don't need fucking military tributes in the form of fucking Blue Angels flyovers, they need to be respected at the institutional level. That means pay increases, proper safety equipment and training, guaranteed time off to recover physically and mentally from the grueling nature of their work, and health care that won't bankrupt them.
Anything else is meant to keep you distracted.

I'm an intactivist, all children have the right to be protected from genital cutting before they can consent, regardless of their genitalia. A consenting adult has the right to do what they want with their own body. #intactivism #i2 #autonomy
