Elon Musk has fired Twitter's entire accessibility division. Those people whose job it is to think about how blind, deaf and visually impaired people use and experience the product across platforms have been fired. The man is an embarrassment.

Our dog loved him. I mean, genuine visceral love. It was mainly due to the chocolate digestive biscuits he gave her on first meeting. She’d scream whenever she saw him. Really scream. Like a banshee. He’d call her “my darling” and “sweetheart”. This is her first meeting.

56 years ago, a generation of little children was wiped from the face of the earth in a wholly avoidable tragedy. Aberfan was real. It happened. And those responsible have dodged accountability for far too long. Wales can’t, and won’t, forget.

The word "Wales" reveals the origins of Britain, and a gnawing history of Anglo-Saxon oppression… It was used by invading tribes to mean 'foreigners' or 'outsiders,' despite Brythonic peoples (latterly Welsh, Cornish, Cumbrian, Breton) being native to these isles. THREAD 👇
