  1. Meereslandschaft mit Mühle (Seascape with Mill), Béla Spányi

    I think I could have this on the wall for life, I can imagine being in this place and just spacing out for a while. Very peaceful. Makes me want to smoke a cigarette for some reason, maybe I still associate this kind of mental space with having a little break time.

    We have this kind of overcast weather here today. ❤️

  6. "The Middle" is a song by Russian-German record producer #Zedd, American #countryMusic singer #MarenMorris, and American musical duo #Grey. It was written by Zedd & Grey alongside #TheMonstersAndTheStrangerz & #SarahAarons with production handled by the former three. The song was released commercially for #digitalDownload and #streaming on 23 January 2018 by #InterscopeRecords. It reached number one in Singapore.

  7. One #accessibility issue I mention frequently is web designers, presumably for aesthetic reasons, making low-contrast colour choices. It also frequently goes along with selecting a #font so small that only people with excellent vision (and no #presbyopia) can read them, even if the #contrast were higher.

    Here's an example. I'm not pointing out the software in question, even though you could identify it easily, because this isn't a dunk on that project, specifically.

    This is the reference #documentation for an API, a small excerpt from the navigation links that run down a column on the left side of the page. The #text is darkish #grey on a lighter grey background. The contrast is terrible, particularly ignoring the highlighted entry because that's bolded as the current selection.

    If you have #cataracts or any other #vision problem, you're going to have trouble with this. But it gets worse.

    That text is 7 pixels high. On my monitors, it's 3 mm high. Ridiculous. Note that if you have fine motor-control problems or use alternative input devices, these are also extremely difficult to click on.

    Here's the kicker: for this site, I have Firefox set to #scale the text up to 133%. That 7 pixels / 3 mm is *after* enlarging it.

    #Web folks, please try to remember that not everyone is a twenty-something able-bodied person with zero accessibility issues.
