A customer told me she couldn't believe this store would put up a Pride display, because what if children see it??

Anyway, it was my display, and I'm proud of it, and you (and your children) should all see it. #BookSky 📚💙

The plots of disaster movies that portray the end of civilization often begin with high-level Government Officials ignoring the warnings of Scientists.

One of several lesson learned from the 2.5 hour @Netflix Documentary — Don’t Look Up (2021).

The White House. The actual White House.

This is the attitude of every abuser, who is now fearful of the consequences of their abuse.

When creating PDFs, avoid using "Print to PDF." A screen reader user may still be able to access the text of PDFs created this way, but heading structure, alternative text, and any other tag structure will be lost. Using "Save As" or "Export" can preserve these tags.

When using Microsoft Word or Google Docs, don't just make text bigger and bolder to make it a heading. That will work for sighted users, but screen reader users will miss that and just hear it as normal paragraph text. Use actual heading styles, like level 1 through 6.

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado.

11,000 people showed up.

Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

Thought I’d share my Year of the Snake contribution 🐍 Meet Cedrick!

My other half knew how much I wanted him, but being he was an exclusive add on from Lego when you spent £70 or more, Gav downloaded the instructions and bought all the bricks individually for me 🥰
