I've been in what I call "Flow" for a few weeks, when proof of concepts solidify and my ideas of a mostly CSS-based theming system are actually working.
Still not there enough to release deets, but getting away from dependencies on css frameworks makes me really happy!

Make sure that interactive elements that can be accessed by using a mouse, pen, trackpad or touch are at least 24 by 24 CSS pixels. This helps people with low vision and/or limited motor control select the intended element without accidentally selecting nearby elements.

Interesting breakdown of how Google has gone off the accessibility rails, among other rails, while also framing some common corp methods for reframing needs into revenue streams.

Very helpful info for all of us trying to understand how #disabled people will be harmed by trump’s attempt to freeze government funding in the US. A judge has stopped this power grab temporarily and will decide more next week. Thx @mariatown.bsky.social + @aapd-disability.bsky.social #disability
AAPD put together an explainer on the federal funding freeze. While the explainer goes into more detail, what we know can be said in one sentence: Lots of critical programs are impacted by this freeze, & within its first day, this action has already caused serious harm.
