@ElleGray@mstdn.social My mom once went to hear Hannah Arendt speak. During the Q&A, some guy started off with the “more of a comment” opener, and Arendt cut in mid-sentence: “People came here tonight to hear me speak, not you,” and immediately moved to the next question.

Do you have trouble prioritising? Unable to decide what to focus your energies on today, next week, next year? Might I suggest having an inherited degenerative eye condition? Simply arrange your interests into easy categories such as "things that are easier to do with vision"/"things I can do without vision"

Look, I drink a LOT of #tea. And I mean gallons of the stuff every day. People expect on Zoom that they'll see my massive mug appear on camera because I always have a cuppa to hand. I have two of @smolrobots@mastodon.social' Teabots. So you'd think I'd have strong opinions about how you should make it or drink it, wouldn't you? But no. Make it how you like it. Drink it how you want to. Stop getting all bent out of shape because someone makes it differently to how you do. What the hell is wrong with you?

I wrote https://www.jacky.wtf/essays/2024/oh-aral/ about the recent accessibility campaign that @aral@mastodon.ar.al's been holding in (or against) the GNOME community, how it's an inversion of privilege preservation and how I fell for it. I saw red flags and ignored them because of the messaging.

I have come to realize that one cannot do everything. Also, not everything can be important all at once. It is ok to say no and to prioritize what you can do today, tomorrow, and the coming week, Also, not knowing something is totally fine and not filling up every second of your day can be a good thing.

+1 - in the past I've had it recommended to not inline links and instead include them as footnotes, and I do not like that recommendation 🙃 I want the post to be rich with the context (where appropriate) and it to be linked naturally from what I'm talking about.
Some folks don't like that, that's fine! If it ends up sending someone on a side quest while they're trying to read my post, that's also OK!
(I'm increasingly suspicious that hardly anyone ever clicks on inline links in text like this, but that's not going to stop me from including them!)

Attached: 1 image Anyone else spend way too much time thinking about the grammar of linking to things? In this fragment I'm not at all confident about the "backs up that data" link, maybe I should have included "as JSON" in that link... Anyone seen a comprehensive style guide that addresses this?
