The latest Bluesky update has made it impossible to type in ALT text for users who require large text.

So low vision users can’t provide image details for blind and low vision users.

It’s almost as if Bluesky wants me to leave.

After the Fall: How Central Europe Purged Its Authoritarians, and Why America Won't Even Try East Germany preserved the Stasi files. The Czech Republic disqualified informants from public office. Poland's process was messier. America's process hasn't started.

Considering how they keep citing nine news as a reliable source, no surprise (I live in the Mallee, so it's what I can get in the car).

roar up and down on various bits of machinery. I wonder if this is just an excuse to play with the machines, and the grumps with signs are just cranky because they want a turn? Anyway, they've all gone off for a late lunch, so the maggies and I are at peace.

In Horsham today for a little change; brought my coffee down to the botanical garden by the river to beguile the magpies with bits of cake. There are roadworks right at the gate - why is a mystery - with a couple of lanky guys leaning on stop signs while some other guys 1/2

For the most part, I agree, if you limit the places you're looking to the majors. (What the Greens used to call the Coles and Woolies of politics.) Alas, we scaredy-cat voters won't put the other ones in positions of power.

There's an ever-growing list of people (mostly male, mostly politicians) I wouldn't let in the house, because it's not at all certain they wouldn't pee on the carpet. God knows they do everything else wrong. Albo joined that list quite some time back.
