MDN accessibility claim about CSS carousels:
bsky.app/profile/deve...

My very limited PR to limit that false claim:
github.com/mdn/content/...

Yay. Megacorps out there making the claims, me taking spare time, again, to try to fix them.

Every day I see some horrifying thing (today it's ICE killing someone in Minneapolis) and then I have to look at my work computer like "okay let's review this cute little design here" like nothing is happening.

Sometimes the routine comforts me. Other times, it feels absurd and painful.

What do these companies have in common?

-Cigna
-Comcast
-General Mills
-Allstate
-Marriott
-Hilton
-Walmart
-Amazon
-Microsoft
-Meta

All promised after January 6, 2021 to stop funding lawmakers who tried to overturn the 2020 election.

And all have broken that promise.

Given our incredible track record of regime changes e.g. Iran (wtf to fubar), Iraq (Saddam to ISIS), Afghanistan (Taliban to Taliban), I’m sure Venezuelans feel pretty good about their prospects.

I would like a real president now. You know, a sane, intelligent, emotionally mature grownup who wants to serve the country and isn’t out for financial and political gain. Why does that seem impossible?

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad.

The American people don’t want to “run” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.

If Xi Jinping invaded Taiwan right now, and toppled the president there, on what grounds would the United States object? Or have any credibility to say anything?

Tonight, the President of the United States has launched an unconstitutional war of aggression, dooming another generation to spill their blood for oil, and lay waste to a sovereign nation.

I demand that Congress exercise its power, halt this conflict, and impeach this war criminal president.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.

Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

Good morning.

You are waking up to the irony of a convicted felon president, who spent years avoiding his own criminal trials, capturing the president of a sovereign nation and holding him captive for criminal trials.

Question: But the president’s statements that he believed the election was rife with fraud—those are statements protected by the First Amendment, correct?

Smith: Absolutely not. If they are made to target a lawful government function and are made with knowing falsity, then no, they are not.

I will never be able to forgive South African born Elon Musk for the damage he & DOGE did to our government. He is clearly a racist elitist who does not care about less fortunate people.

I will therefore never buy a Tesla or any other product from a Musk company.

Personal news: Voted in as my municipalities Inspector of Election so I'll be busy next Election Day. I won by a landslide victory of three votes. Of course, they were the only votes, but still kind of neat. Less doom scrolling, more getting involved.
