TODAY IN SPAIN!
The northern Spanish city of Zaragoza was inundated by a heavy downpour in less than 20 minutes. The fire brigade had to rescue desperate people from their cars.

Here's what I'll do today and it would be great if you would join me.
On the website you're working on today, find a stylesheet and add the following rule.
```
*, *:hover {
cursor: none !important;
}
```
That forces you to use the keyboard. If you find something that makes it hard or impossible to do using the keyboard, fix it! Not just for yourself but for everyone relying on keyboard accessibility.
Edit: fixed code formatting

Add alt text to images on Mastodon if you want to add more visibility to your images. It gives your readers a hint about the image you have added in case their internet speed is low or they have an issue with loading images.Shivangi Gupta

"Making a positive change: PDF to HTML
The Government Digital Service (GDS) states “Compared with HTML content, information published in a PDF is harder to find, use and maintain”."
Consider the needs of the people you are publishing the information for. Engage with them early to explore alternative options that may better meet their needs.
YES !

"Death glitch: How Techno-Solutionism Fails Us in This Life and Beyond" de Tamara Kneese.
Desde los primeros días de Internet las personas han muerto y llorado en línea. En rincones tranquilos de iteraciones pasadas de la web, los muertos persisten. Pero los intentos de preservar los datos de los muertos a menudo fracasan, ya que los sitios web y los dispositivos se deterioran y mueren, al igual que las personas.

Do you ever boost a toot, then see someone else boost it, and think to yourself: there you go, little toot; travel far! Like your boost had some sort of role in its spreading, and you wish it well.
No? No? Ok, I guess it is a bit weird. But I do.

Hey designers, don’t prescribe screen reader pronunciation.
Hey devs, don’t override screen reader pronunciation.
Hey testers, don’t file WCAG violations over screen reader pronunciation.

When many devs, testers, and authors first start listening to content through a screen reader, they are surprised to hear dates, pricing, names, abbreviations, acronyms, etc. announced differently than they expect.Adrian Roselli

So like...
Remember how Finland had #nazi minister #Junnila not too long ago?
Well, his replacement has made jokes about himself being a nazi while visiting a nazi memorial in Germany.
The guy's also involved in grooming and coercing of minors.
...And now the Finnish National Bureau of Investigation is looking into him detailing classified details of the victims in his case in his book... In which he claims he's a martyr, basically.
Shit's bad.
