- Happy Global Accessibility Awareness Day! Here are my top tips for web #a11y: 1. Use your keyboard. Can you reach & operate interactive controls? 2. Run the Axe extension. Fix what you find! 3. Zoom your browser. Does it reflow on small screens? There’s more, but that will get you started! #GAAD
- Next week I’m running an internal Accessibility Jeopardy game show for #GAAD. Working on sound effects 😂 a worthy effort.
- It’s so disappointing to see history repeat itself in 2025 with accessibility forgotten in this @figma.com “Sites” announcement. An MVP must include accessibility to be actually viable. Make accessibility part of your company DNA so it’s a core part of your product from the start!
- I see #Figma has decided to reincarnate FrontPage, but worse: www.figma.com/blog/introdu... Sample 1, with 269 axe issues: www.config.new Sample 2, with only 184 axe issues: www.practice-type.com #accessibility #a11y

- Traveling to my first @khanacademy.org company onsite this week in Mountain View. And I’m taking my bicycle to pedal around! 🚲 Excited to see folks (wish more of my team was going, but understandable). I’ve been meaning to write a blog post about my new job. Now I’ll have more thoughts to share!
- Reposted by Marcy Sutton ToddNope nope nope. This is not what we used our technical skills for. This is not what government data is for. Our friends and family who are autistic are not this regime's test subjects.

- Reposted by Marcy Sutton ToddI am autistic. I pay taxes, I have a job. I dated. I get the desire to push this narrative autistic people DO accomplish these to rebut Kennedy. But there was a time when I DID NOT have a job. And non-speaking autistic people or thise with intellectual disabilities don't. They have worth as well.

- Reposted by Marcy Sutton ToddWhen you look at the list of institutions they want to defund: libraries, museums, the Smithsonian, public schools, PBS, NPR, archives, you can clearly see that the real threat to an authoritarian regime is an informed and educated public

- I haven’t really recovered from laughing at this Generative AI image that Adobe Photoshop created from my favorite headshot. I just wanted to upscale it from a small pixel size. It came back with these weird gems 🤣
- Made it across the US border and home safely... Definitely don't want to fly international again any time soon. Sketchy times.
- Meanwhile, in Baja
