Seems I've lost my ability to neatly categorise myself for a profile - which sounds like a vaguely profound statement on how identity intersects but is really just decision avoidance (and probably the ADHD, assessment pending 😅) She/her

🟣What is it?

A series of 6 hour-long episodes on tabletop game accessibility, hosted by Laura Kate Dale & Cari Watterton. Each episode has a focus topic, is conversational, and is formatted like a podcast.
We've got a cool announcement to make!

Myself and Cari Watterton have been working on a project together the past few months.

Introducing Abletop - A six part series of videos discussing boardgame and tabletop Accessibility.

Hour long episodes releasing weekly - Every Wednesday at 5pm UK.

I would simply debate the One Ring and win the argument with my superior rhetorical skills, thus cleansing it of the dark lord Sauron's magic, and so then in place of a dark lord there would be a queen, not dark but beautiful and terrible as the dawn, treacherous as the sea, stronger than the founda

No idea what's going on here but everybody seems to be enjoying themselves, and that's the main thing.
The weekend is approaching...

So good news is I seem to be getting back into reading books. Bad news is I've still not learned how to read multiple books at once, which resulted in me lugging this bunch around half the country over the holidays.

It ys okaye if festivitye ys not thy thing. It ys okaye to be lonelye. It ys okaye to be sad. It ys okaye to have tinye plans that still seem exhausting. It ys okaye to just be. Be kynde to thyself. Be extra kynde. We are all straungeres heere doing our best. Thou art amazinge.

Did you know that you should end your alt text with a period?

"End alt text with a period, even if it isn’t a full sentence. The period ensures that the screen reader pauses after reading the alt text."

This was a new tip for me. Glad to learn something new!

Alt Text: What to Write
Images are decorative, functional, or informative. Skip alt text for decorative. Describe the action for functional. Convey the message for informative.

the cult of maximum efficiency is one of the worst things to happen to society. I can’t defend studying Latin or reading for pleasure or spending an hour at the park with my niece in a way that will satisfy shareholders. but they’re worth doing because they’re beautiful and good.

Last Christmas Ich gave thee myne hearte
But the verye next daye ther came a wolf,
Wyth sinews of whispers - quiet as frost -
And the wolf stole my hearte, fled
To a tower out of tyme biyonde all the stars.
Seek now myne hearte,
Return it within a yeare and a daye:
Thys ys thy queste!

Tentatively trying out a new platform after being told this one is actually enjoyable 🤞🏻
