“At the site of the accident, cleanup workers were using cranes and other heavy machinery, hauling sheets of metal by hand, and moving wreckage into dumpsters Tuesday. They were wearing boots and hard hats, but none were masked or had other protective gear.” @EPA #DoBetter https://twitter.com/eilperin/status/1625602653844545544

Gentle reminder...

Image descriptions are meant to be IMAGE descriptions. You can be cute and funny in them, writing a good description is definitely a skill.

But the POINT, the important part, is to convey the content of the image for people using screen readers.

It's an accessibility issue, and it matters.

Pitch rejections and play submission rejections are to be expected, however when the editor or reviewer take the time to personalise the response it doesn't seem to wound as much.

Emails to 'undisclosed recipients' starting "Dear Writer/Playwright/Applicant" always leave a bitter taste.

When I receive an email starting, "Dear Marjorie ..." with relevant details of my application, I feel seen, and encouraged even though unsuccessful this time.

Politician's Zoom Background Can't Hide Fact That He's Actually Driving

This is the brilliance of the #Ohio #GOP

It’s worth the watch. Funny, but not funny.

Many cis White #GayMen are down for the cause when it’s about their own exclusion from the White supremacist patriarchal structure, but also refuse to look at the ways they perpetuate those systems. So much harm has been done to other #queer & #trans folx as a result of these mens’ refusal to reflect on this. The same can be said of cis White #lesbians. Queerness doesn’t exempt you from participating in other forms of oppression. #DoBetter.

Too often #Americans mistake being rich as a sign of #Success. Being rich is often as #LadyGaga said #BornthisWay But #Media fawns over the #Rich, which elevates men like #Musk #Trump in the eyes of the masses. #ElonMusk was never a #success story. He was born rich. Same with #Trump. Neither are success stories. They are just rich men who can afford to keep being failures at whatever they do, while #Media continues to exalt them as #successful. #DoBetter #Capitalism

I had this whole long post asking the Ontario liberals and Ontario NDP to really focus on on getting their candidates in front of voters in traditionally blue ridings with plenty of time before the next election. And then I realized the last election was in 2022 and we really are still at the beginning of DF’s term. So I’m going to look at how flexible my work arrangements really are because I’m not sure how much more I can take of this. FTR, I voted but obv dealing w/election ptsd #dobetter

We’ve lost 3 vets in 11 days to suicide and my vet-socials are filled with grief and heartbreak. If I hear anyone vet bashing (like the unsuspecting dog walker I met on the common), I will come down on you like a ton of bricks, in their name. 💔💔#dobetter #bekind #notonemorevet

@CNN says it will not give space to #Trump will not make him into a daily news event and then turns around and writes two headline stories about him in the past 24 hours. #DoBetter #CNN #Media #TwitterMigration #Trump #Corruption

The NY Times has five stories this morning devoted to a man who attempted a coup and stole top secret documents, solely because he’s decided to run for office.

I refuse to play this game again. Let me know when he’s been charged for his crimes.
