- Reposted by Sara Soueidancorner-shape is one of those things where when you first see it, it's like "oh cool, I can make a scoop!"

- "Exclusion happens when we solve problems using our own biases. We seek out exclusions, and use them as opportunities to create new and better experiences." ♥️ — The New Inclusive Design website from Microsoft inclusive.microsoft.design
- I've looked for something like this to reference every time I've used the inclusive design graphics from Microsoft before. So glad this exists now! 🙌🏻 ✨ "a lot is going on right now" is precisely why we want more posts like this #a11y
- So I know a lot is going on right now, but I do want to share this: I’m excited to share the launch of the new Microsoft Inclusive Design website 💙 This project is my love letter to the community and practice that’s shaped my work for nearly a decade. inclusive.microsoft.design 1/

- Reposted by Sara Soueidanthis very aptly applies to developer tools as well
- Lots of US politics in my timeline recently. What's everyone doing to dilute and/or filter topics on Bluesky?
- Plank update: I haven't planked in almost 10 days. I used the instability plates today: I stopped at 7 minutes because it was enough for a start. They didn't make the plank more challenging though. I thought they'd allow my wrists to rest but instead they strained them more.
- We'll be getting multiple outlines in #CSS!! Multiple outlines means no more hacking our way around accessible and creative outline styles with box-shadows that aren't rendered in forced-colors mode! 🙌 Finally!! This is such great news!! 🎉🥳
