Every so often there's new people saying others' self expression is an accessibility issue for them. must we have this talk yearly?
on some level you (the general 'you') have to just like, understand you can scroll past and aren't the proverbial main protagonist. Everyone has their own thing and their own reasons. You aren't actually entitled to consumption even if it's uncomfortable or unreadable.
i'm glad you said it
i'm really tired of "accessibility" being levied at individuals living their lives online. like its reasonable to call a website targeted at the general public that you might be forced to navigate because you live in a society "ableist" if it fails to be accessible to disabled people. or public infrastructure. the elevators always being out is a genuine instance of ableist in accessibility
what's not reasonable is acting like somebody's post where they are just minding their own business living their own life and using a typing quirk, who probably isn't even aware of your existence because their posts are for their own social circle of friends who they know and trust, is somehow the same thing as the escalators being out. or calling a visual artist who doesn't use alt text because they do not feel like their art can be meaningfully translated to text, or a personal art website that doesn't render well on phones or isn't very navigable for screen readers or whatever. it's just fucking stupid i'm so tired of it i'm tired of people acting like everything on the internet is targeted at them specifically, acting like they are obligated to read every little thing that comes across their dashboard. with my sensory issues around #ffffff literally an enormous amount of content on the internet is physically painful for me to look at but i don't go around calling people able list for using bright white backgrounds on their art
yeah, though that's an overcorrection on alt text, aiui the push initially was for website websites to do it, ones getting paid for the time. And then the guidelines got broadened.
but yeah.
Time is a flat circle revolving around things that happened in the Homestuck fandom a decade ago. I believe our next stop is shipping discourse, and the almanac says this year will be the extra spicy
we already got the shipping discourse out early because the boat got stuck a few years ago remember
