Hi friends,

The http://alt-text.org alt text library project needs a new leader, I have brain cancer.

I built a working, scalable, proof of concept library of shared alt text with fuzzy matching.

I'd like to connect with the #accessibility dev community. I want to hand the project off to a team or a leader if anyone is willing to take it over.

WIP MVP: a site designed for writing alt text with a private library: https://my.alt-text.org

Boosts appreciated

BREAKING: Hunter Biden used the White House to find lenders for himself, gained 41 trademarks in China, made $640 million while “working” in daddy’s administration, and received $2 billion from the people behind 9/11.

Whoops, never mind, that was Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump.

I think we can all agree on this.

Not even sure why I bother to point it out, but if another politician, one day after a school shooting, said “Get over it,” and then a few days later said “I hope the economy crashes within the next 12 months,” their candidacy would be over

President #Biden will cast Donald #Trump as a threat to democracy Saturday in a speech to be delivered on the third anniversary of the insurrection.

Don’t believe slavery was the cause of the Civil War?

South Carolina’s own secession declaration in 1860 said so!

It cited “increasing hostility … of the non-slaveholding states to the institution of slavery.”

You know, the same South Carolina where Haley used to be governor.

Break your oath of office by trying to overthrow the Constitution you swore to defend — and you never get to hold office again.

It’s that simple.
