Wish I knew what you were saying (and what the code said lol). No captions ( I'm deaf & vision sucks lol). I don't know if alt text can be used for video?

I wanted to see that movie...can't remember where it was available but likely a streaming service I have no desire to set up an acct for.. we'll see. Did a freebie trial to see CODA and I really wish I could get my hands on a DVD or something.

3 grand?! 😝. The ones that will work for me are in the neighborhood of 6 to 7K (a pair). And that is why my current pair are 11 years old!!! (Last pair I had for 10 years).

I wonder if he's still in the #1 spot for how many blocks he got...

I say this every year lol. Lifetime of it since birth. Really need prescription sunglasses or something (I ran over my last pair with my car...loved them but $$$ trifocals for me). 🀞🏼 That it's not worse!

It's rare I think to see disabled kids in private schools. I guess I was...'lucky' to be accepted...the 2nd time. Was not accepted 1st time, the next year I and my non-disabled sibling were accepted. Makes me wonder now after all these years ...

My friend has an 8yo kid on the autism spectrum with an IQ higher than a certain President or 2. She makes sure he gets what he needs, not sure what will happen if IDEA vanishes. Glad they're in a great state. IDEA became law in 1975- I never got IDEA/IEPA support '75 puts me in 4th/5th grade

Gene Tierney contracted Rubella aka German measles in 1943 from a fan I believe. Daria was born deaf & blind and was institutionalized. She passed on 2010. I wonder if she had late onset health problems too; that's common with Rubella babies.

! Really? (Re autism). I am one of the 'Rubie Babies'/Rubella from the '60s epidemic. have wondered about autism as related to CRS (mother contracted Rubella very early in 1st month). I hope there isn't another Rubella Baby Bulge epidemic... I don't wish it on anyone, especially the unborn child.

Have looked into Zenni before. Progressive Trifocal- strong Rx (less strong after lens implants in my 20s). Might look again to see what options there are.

That's wild that they had color lenses in the 1700s! It's a struggle to get the optical people to let me have color or tint for my everyday pair! Need sunglasses too (ran over my last pair with my car... πŸ₯΄).

A woman who had seen me interacting with the pharmacy staff with sign and using live caption app earlier approached while I was hunting for app and asked if I needed help- and also signed help. Always nice to bump into people who know a tiny bit of sign ❀️.

Oh I know that well! The other day I was in A Walgreens, I had to sign in for the vaccines (forgot to fill out beforehand oops). Had to scan the QR code on sign...so went looking for the QR app.

Question- is the series closed captioned by any chance? Thanks

Ooo. Last time I did a Hacktoberfest was in 2018 (yes I had to look at my shirt, walking right past my MacBook with the 2018 sticker on it). Debating on trying it out again πŸ€”.

Hahahhah. I wanted to share the video with a friend not on Bluesky but could not see a way to.

Same with me..like another poster in this thread I applied for a job that literally matched what my last job was (laid off). Got rejected. Thought about applying again but after seeing several posts I will now!

Four of our past Presidents were cheerleaders in college ...3 of them Republican! And Trent Lott, Rick Perry ('Yell Leader's..?!), Mitt Romney, Thad Cochran (Senator-MS). Cheerleading was all male before WW1.

I'm the only android phone in my family lol. Though Dad does have an android phone too but he's adept with mom's iPhone as she does not use it much anymore (due to health). I do have a MacBook - in my defense it was required for the coding boot camp I went to years ago.

3/ Oh yes.. EDIT function and ability to view Bsky in landscape mode. Oh and private profiles (my friend will love you for that one).
I think that's it for now.
Now if you'll excuse me, job hunting awaits
😀.
Many thanks

2/ Please if there is a way to allow for the app to stay where the user left off when they switch to another app or leave the app.

1/ Dear @bsky.app . I love your app but every time I write a reply or comment then have to switch to look up something for the post then switch back to BlueSky only to find my app refreshed and at the top of my feed- losing my written post.
