I’m updating events for 2026 on Eventua11y and experimenting with having Claude create them using the Sanity MCP server. I am of course checking them, but if there’s temporary weirdness, that’s why!
Today is International Day of Persons with Disabilities. Accessibility removes barriers that many people never notice but others bump into every day. For those of you doing this work, it isn't always easy. But the progress you make does matter. Keep going. #accessibility #IDPD

Remember how good that web felt? It still does.
Join us! Pop on a blue beanie and smile.
