@dstorey You ought to be. That sugary stuff is deadly! Never mind what's in the poo.
@dstorey Untrue. I have that poo emoticon on my Android, stock keyboard. It's so ubiquitous one could call it a de-facto standard.

Oh, dear, what shall I do?
The Web is a mess
And the new Hershey's logo
Looks exactly like poo.

@bhenick I don't know that I'm emerita. Let's see how things go. There's passion in these old bones, maybe I'll win and get one good decade.

It's likely a good sign I'm bitching about Web stuff. In this human wreck that is me, the tough little girl from Brooklyn is poking through.

@SMFulton3 Wow. That's some tough but very wise advice. How'd you do that?
@bhenick Even if I weren't sick, Ben, I'd be nearing the end of my career anyway. So if it's past-tense, it's because I'm disgusted.

Every person working on the Web should take a year or more off and then come back. I dare you. Until that happens, my point is theoretical.

The Web is at best free and open communication. That freedom is essential to an evolving species. Society not important? I call FOUL.

The singlemost important reason I ever got into Web was in fact to help empower society. It flummoxes me. Why others don't see that?

@brucel I think we've put too many things into one jar and shaken it up, thrown it at the wall and said "Look! Aren't we clever?"

@brucel Educating society in how to use technology has certainly been part of my goal. Accessibility advocacy is that in a nutshell.
To be fair, maybe I have just reached that point in one's life where you look back and see the realities of what you did and didn't archieve

@yoavweiss @brucel @Hixie @markboulton yes maybe that is theoretically true. If so update those design principles because they are a lie.

I sure had hoped to leave my career knowing the web would only get better. So much for the best of intentions. Was I not loud enough?
