Okay, fine. I caved. I Preordered an iPhone 17 Pro today. I have never been less excited about ordering a phone. I will never stop being bitter that i can't get a small iPhone anymore. I decided on the pro over the 17 because of the slightly larger battery and I figured the fancy camera might be helpful for Aira, Be My Eyes and all the other blindy related stuff I do with the camera. By the time I got in, the delivery date was Sep. 25 so I have a couple weeks to try to get happy about my big ass phone.

California lawmakers pass bill banning law enforcement officers from covering their faces

The California Legislature on Thursday passed a pair of bills to prohibit on-duty law enforcement officers, including federal immigration agents, from masking their faces, and requires them to identify themselves.

The person arrested for Charlie Kirk's murder?

As Joyce Vance says,

"The suspect [is] a cisgender white man raised in a religious, Republican home."

So will Wall Street Journal and New York Times now apologize for promoting the lie about bullet casings left behind by the shooter that were marked with "transgender" symbols, whatever the jumping hell that means?

I doubt it.

Trump on Trials: How Our Legal System Shouldn't Work

Today, after Donald Trump announced it on Fox and Friends, law enforcement told the public it had apprehended a suspect who turned in after confessing to the murder of Charlie Kirk to his father, a former Sheriff’s Deputy and minister.

"Tyler Robinson comes from a Republican family. His father owns a business installing kitchen countertops and cabinets. His mother is a licensed social worker. His family is white, Mormon, and self-described as 'gun-toting.' There are endless photos of Tyler and his family with guns. His mother posted about him proudly."

"He even dressed as Donald Trump for Halloween. The family wasn’t shy about their culture of guns, their politics, or their worldview.

This is who the killer is. This is what we now know. And yet Trump and his cronies immediately blamed the left."

Remember that white house executive order against DEIA, “diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility”?

They went out of their way to add the A for accessibility. So this is very sad but not surprising.

"Trump administration cuts funding to Oregon disability programs"

opb.org/article/2025/09/11/tru…

"Organizations across Oregon received notice from the U.S. Department of Education that they’d lose hundreds of thousands of dollars"

#Oregon #Disability #Accessibility #DisabilityJustice #Education

The U.S. Department of Education is ending grants to programs across Oregon that support students with disabilities, citing practices related to diversity, equity and inclusion. The cuts could make it harder for disabled students and their families to access help, especially in some of Oregon’s poorest rural communities.

Just watched a video of a memorial in London England for a racist American white nationalist where a group of Māori performed 'haka' (The Haka, the one everyone who is not from Aotearoa knows) for a group of UK MAGA shitheads.

I think I am losing my mind which is surprising as I don't remember finding it again. What the actual fuck is going on?

Comcast executives sent an email to employees endorsing free speech and warning that if you use that speech to criticize Charlie Kirk, you’ll be fired. The word “Orwellian” is overused but I can’t think of a better description. 404media.co 404media.co/comcast-nbcunivers…

was looking at my trusty earbuds worrying what to do if/when they give out

but apparently not only do Apple still sell them (at a doable price and with three different connector options) but people are still this very week publishing culture articles about them 🥳

a looped up set of vintage OEM wired ear buds in Apple white except for being dingy with years of use

Why I replaced my $249 AirPods Pro with $19 wired EarPods

Don't be too quick to dismiss Apple's cheapest earbuds.

What I often find such an interesting take in #accessibility discussions is this concept of "We will make it work for the majority first, and then add accessibility features".
This shows a fundamental misunderstanding of how accessibility, and therefore " features" of accessibility work.
For one, making something #accessible for #screenReaders often requires no visual modifications at all, and requires making calls early in the development cycle to not have to rewrite your entire UI using widgets that even support #assistive #technology. Once that call has been made, making elements accessible is often a matter of, what a concept, using the widgets the way they were meant to be used.
