Zelensky is a wartime leader watching his people suffer and die under Russian attacks every day. To be lectured and lied to by Trump and Vance, as they defend the war criminal dictator committing these atrocities, is unimaginable agony. An everlasting shame for America.
Trump has not uttered a critical word about Putin but he and his VP publicly belittled the leader of the nation Putin invaded.

WCAG is to accessible products as the Criminal Justice Act is to running an enjoyable party - but with much higher stakes, obvs.
(not assaulting your guests is an important pre-requisite but will not help you beyond that)

Before anyone comes in and tries to say “well color modes aren’t in WCAG so they’re not technically accessibility related:”
I have heard from countless users with disabilities and neurodivergence that the wrong color mode can be a significant barrier and cause even cause pain.
WCAG isn’t enough

Yesterday in Berkeley Road in Bishopston a blue plaque was unveiled for Cary Grant.
Here’s a before photo. I love the bespoke velvet curtain and brass rail. I wonder how many blue plaques it’s unveiled.

One of my grumpiest views is that there are never pens available in offices and this is ridiculous. Also having to crawl under tables for plug sockets, which you would think would be just about the first thing on the list of 'things an office should have'

Guilty pleasure -> Love a bit of Gladiators.
Maybe I'm just noticing it more now but they have the first ever deaf gladiator.
Jodie Ounsley (aka Fury) was the first deaf woman to play for England’s Rugby Sevens & is a former British jiu-jitsu champion. Just your usual then 😉💪
