The Olympics should have a ‘For Fun’ section at the end of all the games so all the athletes can try different sports.

Eradicate the idea that darker people can’t wear bold/bright/neon or pastel colors. Eradicate the idea that we can only wear brown and neutral colors. If a dark person wants to wear bold blue let them, bright red let them, bright lime let them, pastel purple let them, and etc…etc… bolder/lighter and pastel colors look better on dark people anyway because it pops out on us. why would we not be able to wear them, we look so pretty in them.

This shouldn't even have been a thing. I know there's a good photo collage to support this.

“Who Fears Death” is novel with science fiction and fantasy elements by American writer Nnedi Okorafor.

I’m very upset that they decided not to mention her name… She is an incredibly talented person and they made an unacceptable mistake….

She is the treasure of modern literature, but they presented her as if they were ashamed that a black woman could write something worthwhile.

One of the biggest tragedies of mankind through out all of history is all of the female geniuses who were never allowed to reach their potential and contribute their gifts to the world. Think of all the female “Mozarts” or “Einsteins” who could have been, but never were.

Dos and don'ts on designing for accessibility

Karwai Pun, GOV.UK:

The dos and don’ts of designing for accessibility are general guidelines, best design practices for making services accessible in government. Currently, there are six different posters in the series that cater to users from these areas: low vision, D/deaf and hard of hearing, dyslexia, motor disabilities, users on the autistic spectrum and users of screen readers.

[…] Another aim of the posters is that they’re meant to be general guidance as opposed to being overly prescriptive. Using bright contrast was advised for some (such as those with low vision) although some users on the autistic spectrum would prefer differently. Where advice seems contradictory, it’s always worth testing your designs with users to find the right balance, making compromises that best suit the users’ needs.

I’ve been wanting something like this to reference! Boosting for the others that like to dabble in code/design.

This is some of the most lucidly written accessibility advice I’ve seen. Making accessible web pages should be the default, not an add-on. It’s really not that hard to do, especially when you think about it from the start – and it benefits everyone.

(Obligatory note that there are exceptions to some of these guidelines, e.g., “bunching” some interactions together is an important way to cue which interactions are related to each other, but that’s why these are guidelines, not absolute rules.)

young web designer: thank you oh my god no one has been able to explain this quite as well and this is just good shit

Bottles of soap say “dermatologist tested” but don’t tell you what the results were. Maybe the dermatologist ran away screaming.
