Guys, I need a differential sign/symptom list between subdural hemorrhage vs opioid overdose

My Dude gets jabbed with an autoinjector loaded up with Carfentanil but also gets a bump on the head. The symptoms need to overlap enough that there is doubt in the mind of the discerning reader, but then I need one or two emerging signs that a sharp-eyed clinician would pause and think, wait a moment, that's a brain bleed going on

Bonus if it makes him a smartarse, gets slapped

Improving accessibility in the Fediverse and the ATmosphere

thenexusofprivacy.net/improvin…

One way that fedi is really unique is that so many people take the time to put alt-text on their images -- so low-vision and blind people participate much more fully than on other social networks. That said, at least half the images on most instances don't have alt-text. And alt-text is only one of many aspects of accessibility -- while some fedi software works well for people using screenreaders and other assistive technology, there's still a lot of room for improvement. Meanwhile on Bluesky and the ATmosphere ... well let's just say there's even more room for improvement.

So, let's make things better!

As a first step, let's focus on gathering information -- resources, tips, known issues, suggestions for improvements, and best practices or sources of inspiration in other software. There are some specific questions in the replies (and a few examples of resources) but really anything accessibility-related is good. This is brainstorming, so It's fine if to suggest something that's not fully fleshed out!

Please share your perspectives here, or in this CryptPad form if you prefer.

I'll collect the responses and follow up with a post here, on the Nexus of Privacy newsletter , and on the #accessibility hashtag. I've already talked with a couple of development teams who are interested in finding out what they can do, and since user education is an important aspect as well there will be plenty of ways people who aren't developers can help too!

And if you're interested in helping out on this project, please let me know! (1/N) 🧵

Improving accessibility in the fediverse and the ATmosphere

One wonderful feature of many of the communities in the fediverse is that so many many people take the time to put alt-text on their images – so low-vision and blind people can participate much more fully than on other social networks.

"Si Marine Le Pen ne se présente pas, Jordy va prendre sa place". Entre la fille de Jean-Marie Le Pen et Bardella, c'est à nouveau la grande entente, selon la direction du RN. En coulisses, les deux têtes du parti d'extrême-droite se préparent à une guerre fratricides avant 2027 et même avant, si Macron prononce une nouvelle dissolution.
