Yom #SaintFrancis Ha'Kadosh is coming up this #festive #HolidaySeason.

I'm such a great #ally, I made sure to include a white and yellow animal design for this #minority's major #holiday. (Surely it's major if it falls around our big #holidays!)

@vlentz From a technical viewpoint the alignment between #SEO and #ally is incredibly close and these days it can be easier to sell accessibility on the back of SEO. All these disciplines when aligned and working together are a really powerful team.

Well thats unfortunately ironic....

I am just shocked that Vladimir #Putin supports #Trump's plan to rescind #America's support of #Ukraine, and hand the country over to Putin. The fact that Trump views Putin's support for this plan as proof that he's somehow right should be latest nail in Trump's coffin. Trump is a #traitor who will always put his own personal interests above the best interests of the country. He will sell out any #ally, and abandon any #alliance if he thinks it's to his personal benefit.

@mookie if anyone else is struggling and hasn't given up on their #ally uninstall all of asus' crapware; install handheld companion and have steam start in big picture mode. It even makes the gyro work

I use hibernate rather than sleep too, big picture gets confused by sleep but hibernate works great.

Ghelper is also nice to do the rgb lights.

Why should progressives accommodate conservatives' need to be socially accepted, when conservatives refuse to allow "others" to be socially accepted.

If the conservatives want people to be friendly with them, then they need to stop being so actively hostile to people.

@JuliusGoat does a much better job explaining this idea in this essay:

Tonight I experienced #freudenfreude * for my Mastodon #furry friends when I saw the #ElephantPeach reveal

#nintendo #ally

Screenshot from "Super Mario Bros Wonder" of Princess Peach using an elephant power-up. She is a pink elephant in a dress, swinging her trunk, striking the air in front of her, crop-dusting a cloud of snow behind her, while the words "good good" perfectly frame her good goods. 

I'm so sorry, but also, am I wrong? Are you telling me this isn't content targeting a hyper specific demographic?
A screenshot of Google's generative AI response to "freudenfreude." It tells that the term describes "the bliss we feel when someone else succeeds, even if it doesn't directly involve us. The opposite of schadenfreude".

Web Trade-Offs Can Be Frustrating

The more structured and semantic you are in execution the better it is for accessibility, but also the easier it is for folks to scrape and rob you of your efforts.

When considering the efforts of others especially around #webdev markup execution and #ally, remember that besides DX we often have competing interests given the culture and characteristics of the web. This isn't an excuse, more of an observation and plea to employ less black and white thinking.

I don't know if I've ever actually written a comprehensive #Introduction post, so here goes nothing.

I'm a language student, studying German specifically right now, but have a bachelor's degree in Spanish as well. I'm passionate about linguistics beyond my scope of study and love learning new facts about language usage in any context.

Some of my interests include music (I'm a vocalist and pianist), reading, writing, psychology, nature (Not vs. nurture, although that too).

I'm looking for engagement with people who will post about the things I want to read about, while also enjoying what i post about. I'll definitely not follow you if you post images without alt text, but i might also consider unfollowing if you have a habit of reposting posts without alt text. Accessibility matters.

Throwing a few hashtags here for more interaction:

Completely forgotten about this banger of an article by Dr Muna Abdi, from Sheffield Uni, a connection lost in the Twitter Diaspora.

Addresses the inherent problems around the language of "allyship" and "privilege" and, even better offers alternatives, such as "solidarity" and "unearned structural advantage". Very much worth a read (even a boost or tag a friend?)

also, a "bisexion bonus" is so fucking funny to me conceptually. a month's salary for writing a six-line program and idly clicking through it for an hour? if bisecting across, presumably, revisions that all Just Build and you only need to finaggle to trigger, then bisecting linux beyond 6.0 makes me a war hero i think?

Rather than being repeatedly frustrated when seeing someone's posts with photos attached that have no #descriptions, I've just decided to unfollow them despite having certain afinities with them.

*Yes. It's the same person about whom I subtooted the other day.*

Liberals, you need to check your allyship card. If you're not including #disabled people in that group, you're not a true #ally. All you are doing is pretending.

Sad!

# How to Advocate for Trans Rights in Your Community

*
#Transgender people face #discrimination in many areas of life, including #healthcare, #employment, and #housing.
* There are many ways to
#advocate for #trans #rights, including #donating to organizations that support transgender people, #writing to your elected officials, and #volunteering your time.
* It is important to
#educate yourself about transgender #issues and to #challenge #transphobia when you see it.
* You can also support transgender people by using their
#correct #pronouns and #names, and by being an #ally in their #fight for #equality.
* The article provides a list of
#organizations that #support transgender people, including the National Center for Transgender Equality, the Human Rights Campaign, and the Trans Lifeline.
* The article also provides tips on how to write to your elected officials, including providing them with information about transgender issues and urging them to support transgender rights.
The article concludes by saying that "the most important thing you can do is to be an ally to transgender people. This means being willing to listen to their experiences, to challenge transphobia, and to support them in their fight for equality."*
