Thanks for sharing your work.
Today is International Day of Persons with Disabilities and many disabled Albertans are worried about changes to AISH and the transition to the Alberta Disability Assistance Program (ADAP). Today and every day, people living with disabilities deserve dignity, respect and a voice.

Platform wide, AltText use is about 20% (apparently)
For AAC...about 96%
Over 450 artists leading the way. Fantastic job everyone.
I'm going through my back-catalog of aurora pics for my upcoming side quest website, and still in awe of some of the light shows we've gotten over the past two years during this solar maximum cycle.
This was from mid April in Iceland this year. #northernlights

Itβs getting a bit tiring saying this but in normal times, this wouldnβt just bring down the government, it would be the end of the political and private careers of everyone in caucus.

Many questions and a lot of disinformation about the #ForeverCanadian petition. Here are some straight facts about whatβs next. Premier has two choices. Which one will she make?

The headline I feel like is that all the philanthropic donations from billionaires typically have a shitload of restrictions.
Mackenzie is like βyouβre doing work to stop something horrible or to help something good? Cool. Hereβs a few hundred million.β and the paper is like βwowβ¦ so novelβ

Happy 5th Birthday to my Artie. Not a painting, but to me he is a masterpiece.

Smith - Yeah, we're making some changes on Thursday, but what I really want to talk about is how much the NDP hurt the coal companies.
For real. That was her pivot.

Black and white portrait of a wild burro named Willow. Notable features include curly ear fringe, a soft muzzle, and amazing whiskers.
Say good morning to Willow!
Willow is a sweet and shy girl from Beatty, NV (Bullfrog HMA). She was a big girl β¦ riding size. She had some reach with her her hind legs! I gentled her for a 70-yo lady who ended up using her as a riding burro! #ArtAdventCalendar

It's early but I'm calling it for tonight. We end #ArtAdventCalendar day 2 with 440 participants.
Somewhere around 900 images posted and I'd guess all but 20 have AltText so HUGE congrats to all of you.
Keep posting and sharing. See you tomorrow.
HEY YOU. STOP DOOMSCROLLING.

It's a portal to a beautiful place that has nothing but art made by real humans.
DO IT.
BTW #ArtAdventCalendar has been trending off and on all day. Which is kind of great.

Five abstract trees in a group. Sort of Zendoodle-ish: the trunks are solid black, the leaves are white circles with a black background in rounded groups surrounding the upper trunks. Ground is signified by parallel broken lines.

Trees. Theyβre cool. (Iβm living in the future: I unthinkingly signed with β26 instead of β25.)

Our health care system can't take this. The Sask Party will spend money they'll lose to closures to slowly end comprehensive social health care and normalize our experience of it. They're hoping we'll eventually be begging for their beloved privatized care. They're killing us softly. #Sask #SkPoli

And on the separation game too.
They are pirates & are using public resources for their agenda. They scream about govt being too big as they bleed us dry for their privatization interests.
Alberta's are very greedy populist libertarian opportunists.
And wow they lie & firehose us.
If you wait until the last hour, here's your cue!
