Still on a break, but looking forward to returning soon!
Life update -- I got a job! It's gonna be so great 🥹

More on this soon but for the curious: @semanticfish.com & @semanticfish.net aren't going anywhere! Stable income means I can sustainably work on content projects. 💕

Will be taking the weekend to feel the joy. 😌

Have you heard? ⚠️

The ADA.gov home page replaced an image of disabled POC with the US flag.

"Anti-DEI" has always been about race.

Website's codebase was updated March 7th: github.com/usdoj-crt/be...

Image source is Disabled and Here:

Going to be a little quiet here for a week or two! Not totally silent, but @ashleemboyer.com has a couple of client projects to work on. Yay! 💜

Hoping to get some posts up on this today.

1. A brief "explainer" with links where folks can read the federal register & code of federal regulations themselves.

2. Documenting where AGs say "that's not what it says" when it is what the suit's complaint says.

#TexasVBecerra #Section504
Checked Arkansas AG Tim Griffin's ExTwitter posts and that's where he shared his updated statement. Feb 13, 2025 at 5:42pm ET.

Here's an archive link to the news release:

We're entering a dark period in US accessibility.

The White House website doesn't comply with US legal accessibility requirements, paving a path for widespread disability discrimination.
