When you make the pitch for accessibility, be prepared for pushback. There are several myths and misconceptions, so it's good to be aware of what they are and how to dispel them.

You don't necessarily need to say "image of" in your alt text for users to know it's an image. Screen readers will announce that it's an image. But it can help readers to specify if it's a hand-drawn image, Polaroid, infographic, screenshot, chart, map, diagram, or so on.

Today it really is the 22nd, which means it really is the very last day for Fat Folks Tarot!
Happy Solstice! Today is the ✨very last day✨ you can get the Fat Folks Tarot Deck from us - no more reprints and no more sales! Some of our artists MIGHT still have copies they're selling directly, but the business closes after today, Dec. 22nd.

Today is your last chance to pick up Fat Folks Tarot! It's $50 and the absolute last time we will be selling this deck. There might be some artists selling their copies here and there but from us, this is it. Sales end for good at 11:59pm tonight!
Fat Folks Tarot was a labor of love by everyone involved. I'm sad it's over, but I'm excited to move on to new projects. This is your last chance to buy the Fat Folks Tarot deck made by fat artists, featuring fat folks, for fat folks. It's genuinely very special. 🩵 Thank you for the love and support
There are exactly 185 Fat Folks Tarot decks left in our final sale!! We will never be reprinting this deck so if you want it this is legitimately your last chance to get it aside from artists selling them directly from their personal stock.

It's official, we're closing up shop at the end of the day on December 22nd or when we sell out, whichever comes sooner! Decks are $50, plus shipping. Only 150 left now!

The claims that the ALA is engaged in a secret pro-LGBTQ+ campaign trying to undermine traditional values is a right-wing talking point as old as time. Here's an example from January 1983.

When you're teaming up with the KKK to make your claims, you're not the good ones in the story.

Fuck. I worked for another CA public library system and I cannot tell you how popular laptops and hotspots were - and our programs were largely externally funded. Esp for folks who had no access to the internet or only had 1 family smart phone. These devices were literal lifesavers.
LA County Library is shutting down its laptop loaning program on Dec. 30 after the Federal Communications Commission cut off assistance for programs meant to improve digital access.
You won’t be able to check out a free laptop from LA County Library after next month. Here’s why
The FCC voted to end e-rate discounts for digital lending programs forcing LA County Library to end its loan service.

"Parental rights" to revoke access to a playful, imaginative picture book about a KITTY CAT.
We have the newest casualty of the “parents rights," movement in Texas! And we can thank Sen. Angela Paxton’s “parental rights” school library bill (SB 13) for keeping Texas kids safe from Pretty Perfect Kitty Corn in Southlake, TX (Carroll ISD). @shannonhale.bsky.social

In the last chapter of Alice’s memoir, “Year of the Tiger,” she wrote her own future obituary.

The wonderful “oracle, storyteller, cyborg, trouble-maker, activist, night owl” we loved so much closed it with:

“Enjoy all of Alice’s good shit, and may you create some good shit as well.”

You were incredible, Alice Wong, and it was a blessing to have collaborated with you on projects, to have read your words and to have heard your voice, as full of life and passion and joy and rage as it was.

You made a difference—so much of a difference.

Rest always in peace, and always in power.
