I don't know how it'll be with the survival stuff turned off, but it's very visual effects heavy during the lead up to, and during a blackout.

Oh, and lick a frog if you find one.

Y = The vertical upwards motion of your head shouting "whyyyy" when the topic comes up.

X = The horizontal head shake you make when the topic comes up again.

Z = The confusingly looking around motion when this is introduced.

I love the em dash.

I also saw an article about the death and decline of the semi-colon and cried.

New publisher set up to 'provide a safe and secure home' for Unbound authors Will Atkinson, the former head of Atlantic Books, has set up a new publishing company, Wilton Square, to initially "provide a safe and secure home" for authors previously publishing by Unbound.

Hey Laura, I read this "blurb" as I can't read the rest, but thought of you.

My professional opinion as a digital accessibility specialist is that if you do what is described here, you’re a dick.

Reasons why the Switch 2 STT allowing swear words is important.

It let's us, as D/deaf and hard of hearing players, to remain fully involved in communication everyone else has access to audibly, clearly.

Absolutely! My post was a little vague and should have specified for accessibility πŸ˜‚

I've played games for years with shoddy speech to text and spent more time trying to decipher weird transcriptions or censored words.

This is a great allowance that will reduce that experience.

This might seem funny on the surface, but this is actually very cool.

Okay, YUNGBLUD's 'Hello Heaven, Hello' is actually a bop.

Feel like Idols will be the album I delve into.
