1 out of 2 of her children call Nikki, “Better than boring.” At least one friend, but more likely most of them at some point, eventually, said, “Nikki made me do it.” Senior Design Engineer for Adobe and maker of #WebComponents. Opinions my own. (she/her)

@westbrook right before vacation ends is when burnout creeps in again
@farktal nothing that extreme here. Wow.
@nolan #a11y is barely brought up if at all in many learning paths. I was invited to speak to third year information science students and when the instructor asked how many of them had learned anything about it, only 2 of 30 raised their hands. So not only do we have existing folks who are unaware, we’re still failing to make it a priority for new folks.

I love the new "Connections" game from the New York Times, but I just realized it's not keyboard-accessible. Literally just <div>s with pointer* listeners, even though these are basically just buttons with a pressed state.

I guess I had kind of naively thought our industry was getting better at #a11y as a whole? In any case, I gave them feedback, so hopefully they'll fix it.

This year for the Rocky Horror Picture Show screening, I decided that Rocky needed some fan service, and since I had plenty of gold clothing and makeup on hand, I was a feminine Rocky to my friend’s Frank.
And then I got distracted by the rubber gloves while waiting for the show to start and did an homage to a Blink-182 album.
If anyone saw me walk in the house and come across one of my cats, they’d think I’m seeing a cat for the first time. #CatsOfMastondon
@nagmay which one of us is better, the hallucination or the real one?
