📣Courage is contagious.
➡️ María Corina Machado was awarded the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize for her tireless fight to restore #democracy in Venezuela 🇻🇪—despite being barred from running for president, facing threats, and living under authoritarian rule.
She’s an inspiration to me—especially as a 🇺🇸🇩🇴 Latino witnessing the rise of #authoritarianism in the U.S.
Her #courage and commitment to peaceful resistance remind me of Maya Angelou’s timeless word👇🏾
Quelque chose qui m’a interpelé entre la première conférence de cette année, qui présentait l’évolution du Web, et les conférences de ces dernières années, c’est que nous sommes passés de _pourquoi mettre des balises `alt` dans les images_, à _Comment faire mieux que les différents règlements d’accessibilité ?_.
J’entends la fatigue des sherpas les plus ardents, mais il me paraît important de noter cette évolution positive.

Freedom Square, Kharkiv🇺🇦
In every city and village during my humanitarian volunteer trip through Ukraine, I pause to honor the fallen. 🕯️ Today, it was Freedom Square in Kharkiv.
🇺🇦Each flag is a glimpse into a life cut short, a reminder of the cost of freedom.
🕊️ Their heroism will never be forgotten.
Heroyam Slava. Slava Ukraini. 🇺🇦

What's so pathetic about this redesign of the #macOS drive icons from #Apple isn't that it ditches #Skeuomorphism, it's that it hangs on to skeuomorphism by trying to show a non-euclidian geometry vision of the face of a desktop drive.
Apple lacks the #Courage to go full geometric primitive and make icons that are pure metaphor. Given they're cargo-culting their own graphical history in so many decorative ways, they could have made uncompomised high-fidelity takes on the pre-Aqua icons.

And to be sure, action against power is dangerous and one must make their own choices about safety and the safety of their loved ones.
But change only occurs with courage and the willingness to be unsafe. Psychologically and/or physically. This is the battle raging in hearts and minds right now.

🇺🇸Never forget: The Constitution cannot be selectively applied or disregarded when inconvenient. Rights aren’t reserved for the few—they’re guaranteed for all. History reminds us that when one group is dehumanized, others are never far behind.
Your voice matters. Don’t let silence win. Know your rights, and protect the rights of those you serve…
4/4
👉🏽 As Coach Wilder puts it:
“The only way you can protect people is understanding that the Constitution has a role. And we have to rely on that. And we can’t cherry-pick it.”
