How common is non-UHT milk across Europe/the world? UHT milk is uncommon and generally disliked in Ireland but it seems to be the standard in mainland European countries that I’ve visited.

does anyone make fidget spinners with beyblade launcher mechanisms to make them go?

I am interested in resources for guided meditation, relaxation-focused hypnosis audios or similar things to try if anyone has any recommendations.

I wonder has anyone written a sequel story to Godzilla that focuses not on any further monsters but on the consequences of the use of the oxygen destroyer on the ocean

When I post reviews to my blog I include a star rating in the title with star characters like this: ★★★☆☆

I want this not to be a mess for screen readers so I decided to wrap them in spans with ARIA labels like this: <span aria-label="3 stars">★★★☆☆</span>

But trying to look more into accessibility I am finding people saying that aria-label should only be used on interactive elements or elements with a specific role assigned and not general text but then I am not sure what alternative to use here to make this work better. Does anyone have any specific suggestions for what to do here or good general guides on accessibility to read?

Also is there any practises over labelling things that are correct names but that screen readers are probably going to struggle with. E.g. the new Gundam show is officially called “Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX” which I understand is meant to be pronounced something like “G-Quacks” or labelling “Kevin Can F**k Himself” to be clearly pronounced without the censoring.

Another weird question I’ve thought of: Does having a span in the middle of a word (e.g. if yo were doing some decorative text on just part of a word for whatever reason) fuck up accessibility? Or even bolding or italicising parts of words? Like if I write unimportant to indicate I am emphasising that part of the word?

Remember scromiting?

any recommendations for things to do in Edinburgh?

animals I am according to my partner:

• deer
• cat
• pangolin

Which animal am I the most?

How are people feeling about the way I have been reposting directly onto the site and RSS feed rather than doing roundup posts? Is it working well? Is it annoying or confusing? I don’t want to just turn this into a flood of reposts either so I might still do roundups as well. As ever I am figuring out what I’m doing as I go.

Has anyone ever made a bookmarket to open a Fediverse post in your own instance so you can interact with it?

Is there any spec or common practise for providing content warnings in an RSS/Atom feed?

people who know about photography I am thinking of getting a little polaroid-style camera for making little memento snaps. Image quality is not of paramount importance but y'know would be nice. Don't want to spend a fortune. Any particular recommendations?
