people that hate cats are so funny to me because the things they complain about also are complaints autistic people hear about themselves “unfriendly” “unapproachable” “mean” etc

meanwhile the cats and the autistics are just minding our business and not seeking validation from someone

How am I seeing this on a website in 2026?

My work goal this year is to learn to be more diplomatic. So far I’ve realized I need to listen better.

What if there was a mindful way to steal people’s art, pollute Black neighborhoods, and raise everyone’s electric bill?

It must be nice to be a sociopath, because all the new products are for you. The smart glasses will give you that woman’s address, the betting apps will finally let you make bank on war crimes.

The best time to start thinking about and talking about making a website accessible is at the very beginning, before any content or code has been written. But the second best time is right now.

A major challenge for our times is to avoid becoming callous. Some people seem to be truly failing the challenge.

Design systems can’t automate away all of your accessibility considerations - zeroheight Eric Bailey explains why automated checks can't catch all accessibility issues in a design system and how teams can fix them, step by step.

I wrote for @zeroheight.com about the types of things automated accessibility checks can't detect when auditing and evaluating your design systems for accessibility. #a11y zeroheight.com/blog/design-...

I’m tired of hearing that people who don’t embrace AI will be “left behind.”

Developers still don’t know how to code HTML in 2026.

Yeah, hi, I’m a person with “mobility challenges” (excuse me while I hurl). What we want, by and large, are not expensive, heavy devices that will “help us walk again”, but ramps.

I know, it’s not sexy, as technology invented before Christ, but it is overlooked in favor of…this. Repeatedly.

I am trying to learn VoiceOver on MacOS and I’m getting really frustrated that the Tab key works differently than Windows.

It’s so weird when apps include fullscreen iframes or web views to 3rd party content like we just won’t notice. It’s always a bad experience.

Vestibular disorders affect people's balance as well as their visual perception of their world around them. Don't make animations, sliders, videos, or rapid movement start automatically, as autoplaying elements could trigger a bad reaction in people who have vestibular disorders.

This happens all the time in native mobile apps too.

iOS: Apply the .isHeader trait to heading text

Android: Give heading text the Heading role

This is your reminder to get your documents in order in 2026.

Everyone needs
- A will
- Durable power of attorney
- Medical power of attorney
- Advanced medical directive (living will)

Get them notarized and signed by witnesses.
