When thinking about accessibility, one of the most important things you can do is listen to feedback from disabled people.
Listen, learn, and do better next time. Take it as an action, rather than a defensive reaction.

It sounds like comically specific hyperbole but it is verifiably true that in the same year Elon Musk predicted fully autonomous taxis serving half the nation, what actually happened was his chatbot became a pedophile

Venezuela, Iran and Nigeria are all in Trump’s gunsights. Turns out that together, the 3 countries also hold almost a third of the world’s oil reserves.
Canada, aka Trump’s “51st state,”holds an additional 10 percent.

It seems to have been overlooked in the fox hunting debate but we had a Minister of State advocating for us to actively drive 2 native species to extinction. #Spéirgorm
Eradication isn't management. It isn't pest control. It isn't even the killing for sport of these species. It's extinction.

Precedent could have far-reaching consequences. Who is to say the rights of gay citizens won’t be the next target by a coalition of hostile states?

Patrick O’Donovan went out on the national airwaves with a half-baked, bad set of ideas about linking access to online spaces to our PPS numbers.
If he had these ideas himself, it would be a Christmas miracle.
But in fact, they are the Zuckerberg lobbying aim across the world.

Ireland is one of only three countries in the EU with a religious State education system. The others are Malta (Catholic) & Greece (Orthodox).
Ireland has been a secular country for 53 years, over half the life of the State.
It's way past time all State education was secular.

Ann Lowe was the Black genius behind Jackie Kennedy’s iconic wedding gown.
Before the fashion world was ready to credit a Black woman’s talent, Lowe was already designing for America’s most powerful families. Brilliant. Bold. Innovative. Undervalued. And nearly erased from history.

I left Ireland and moved to New York in 1997. Decades on, what the US has become has broken my immigrant heart.
