Everything is iterative, cyclical. The point of disruptive technology at best is to stop those Loops we've gotten ourselves into that simply do not scale 2 human and Manufacturing and every sort of possible need one can imagine. It's a systems design failure and I'm guilty as Sin

I can't bleed anymore isolated and alone, it is the web that is my home.
Save it. Save me. Save yourselves and let's do right by the world in which we live and grieve.

I often wonder if I'm the only one left
Who still carries our industry's DNA in my blood, my very sick blood but alive and true,

I often feel I'm stuck
In a time we built the web with love.
My passions, all
are entwined deep within my marrow.
I make mistakes as we all do I don't want to spread FUD or incorrect news...
This is why I am always open
To inquiry and consider
A wide world of unique views...

Finally from the mouth of the man himself. Thank you my dear Matt Mullenweg and let's make sure this gets done. #a11y #Accessibility #WordPress #Gutenberg RT or spread this like butter! #webdevelopment #webdev #webdesign #UI #UX #interoperability #Standards #errorForgiveness

Sure. Lots of Outreach to Africa in the w3c and related organizations. / holds up my sarcasm sign. And I'm going to keep holding it up until people start remembering why we went into this in the first place.
Tim Berners-Lee's Web Foundation finds a 12% slowdown in the global growth of internet access between 2007 and 2017, with African women the least connected (Ian Sample/The Guardian) theguardian.com/technology/2…

Thank you Joe. Any clarifications are more than welcome although many are contradicting each other which is very disconcerting I must admit. You're a good egg!

WE PUSH BACK. WE STING IF NECESSARY. This is unacceptable. An insult to the thousands of people (including YOU @photomatt) who worked toward #webstandards and gave a shit. Once Upon a Time, you had values and #ethics instead of Inter "Net Worth." #wordpress #accessibility #a11y
I can't stop thinking about the fact that @Wordpress (which “powers 31% of the internet”), is about to ship a massive overhaul of their interface without making sure that it's accessible. Why was #a11y not a blocker for every new feature, so nothing inaccessible was ever allowed?

LOL! That's a classic story. I'm so glad I was able to perform a hard boot and full refresh before loathing went any further. Now you can play your version too loud through the walls on occasion!!! xo/m 😜

Excellent too. I love John Cale and when I'm regularly practiced on guitar I do a few covers :D #music is one of the best means of opening our minds and experiences, exposure to culture and transcendent of differences. Hope you're well xo/m always!

Leonard Cohen was an amazing soul and transcends death through his prolific works. Nothing like a first love, and I have loved him and his incredibly influential poems, songs, prose - the man is a legend for a reason. #LeonardCohen

This is so wrong. I hope Matt Mullenweg will hear our voices and remember his roots and who helped HIM along the way to Inter "Net Worth" 😡

I AM BROKEN HEARTED AND ASHAMED! @photomatt you need a smack upside the compassion part of your heart. I KNOW you possess it. I remember. I have always loved you, and we shared a love of #quality and #webstandards. How can I help?
#wordpress #accessibility #a11y #standardBITCHES
My heart aches about this. @dboudreau is right. Imagine if @automattic and @photomatt were committed to #accessibility. They'd be benefitting such a large number of people. I feel as if my work was for nothing.

Please add your favorite interpretation(s) of "Hallelujah" by Leonard Cohen. FWIW, The song is not about sex per se, but the cycle of life and the pain we all of us endure. #leonardCohen #Hallelujah #aleyluya #performance #poetry #music #art #expression #covers #sharingiscaring💚

Pentatonix aCapella Official Video
Incredible talent. Why I Like It: Predominantly a Capella, which ain't easy. Also, there's a bass, baritone and tenor; and two Sopranos, one like a boy or a castrato. I cry when the two hand off in the Soprano range!
