Writer of quiet storms and beautiful entanglements. Author of “Bittersweet Symphony.” I believe in the physics of longing—two frequencies finding resonance across the noise.

The Bondi tragedy hurts not only Australian Jews, but other communities as well. “Us vs Them” isn’t the way to get ahead.
This cause is close to my heart - please sign: petitions.getup.org.au/petitions/fr... @getup.org.au
ADD YOUR NAME ✍️ We will not be divided after Bondi
On Sunday at Bondi we witnessed the appalling consequences of hatred and how it breeds radicalisation and violence. But as the Jewish community and the whole country grieved, some politicians went on ...

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

Sound advice, but I need to point this out regarding ‘jargon’: it can be explained. Glossaries are always useful and help learners’s entry into complex topics: neuroscience, quantum mechanics, computational linguistics, etc., etc., have their own terminology. Let’s not dumb knowledge down, please!
Plain language is communication that your audience or readers can understand the first time they hear or read it. The terminology you use will vary depending on the audience. Always aim to avoid jargon when possible, especially when you have a broad general audience.

Some will publish podcasts but wait up to 24 hours before adding transcripts instead of publishing them together. The end goal should be to have the transcript ready at the same time as the podcast. This will require multiple teams working together toward that goal.

For screen readers to recognize headings, heading text can't just be body text or normal text that's been made to look bigger and bolder. It must be formatted as a heading. In Microsoft Word and Google Docs, this can be done in the styles box. In HTML, use the tags h1 through h6.

Local and regional governments are instrumental in the monitoring and implementation of #HumanRights obligations. However, it can often be difficult for them to operate.

Local governments in action for human rights
There is growing recognition of the potential of local authorities to transform human rights obligations into concrete actions that can make a real difference in people’s lives.

That’s such a good description of yours truly when she was a child… 😳😂🤪
She is all gentleness and mildness when anybody is by; but she is a little fretful and perverse among ourselves.

Get in the habit of bringing up accessibility at meetings, in stand-ups, and in demos. Bring up things you've done to address accessibility. Likewise, don't be afraid to ask, "Have we tested this on a keyboard?" or "What's the experience like on a screen reader?"

This is comedy gold, but sadly it’s also pretty serious.
Two opposite things can be true at the same time.

Sometimes loneliness feels less like emotion
And more like physics ⚛️
As if my heart were a particle waiting for a compatible wave 📡
To resonate at the right frequency…

People who want to make the web accessible need to understand the many different ways that people with disabilities use the web. This W3C resource offers a good introduction to how disabled people navigate the web, and barriers they commonly encounter.

Until then, I move through the evening like a particle in search of its twin, trying to stay coherent in a universe full of noise.
Some nights, even superposition feels too crowded.

Neuroscience calls it co-regulation. I call it longing for the right mind, the right voice, the right touch that quiets the nervous system instead of startling it.

Tonight I feel like a misaligned qubit—charged, sensitive, holding too much energy with nowhere to land.
Loneliness isn’t just an ache; it’s a kind of quantum hunger. The body wants resonance, a matching frequency, someone whose presence collapses the wavefunction in a way that feels like home…

🩵I always think art is such a powerful outlet. Rather its photography, sketching, painting, writing-ect. What matters is you are creating or capturing something only you can. It doesn’t matter if its good or bad. Just as long as you enjoy it🩵

What do these corporations have in common?

Netflix
Ford
Tesla
T-Mobile
Duke Energy
DISH Network
Metlife
Dominion Energy
United States Steel

In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes.

This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

I hadn’t thought of this… Good point!
Vestibular disorders affect people's balance as well as their visual perception of their world around them. Don't make animations, sliders, videos, or rapid movement start automatically, as autoplaying elements could trigger a bad reaction in people who have vestibular disorders.

The brain collapses possibilities into meaning. Quantum events collapse waves into form.
Maybe, just maybe consciousness is just the Universe trying to look at itself more clearly.

A tricky situation for everybody but much trickier for people with disabilities: filling out online forms.
Your site's users need enough time to interact with content and fill out forms. People with disabilities such as blindness, low vision, dexterity impairments, and cognitive disabilities might need more time for things such as forms. Allow users to turn off or extend time limits.
