I should note I am quite happy. I will be glad when bsky is more open to the public and I can browse it with rss and post more, but either way I am happy now. Life is okay.

For what it's worth I still exist, I just spend most of my time these days working and preparing for a few big life changes. I also browse the internet mostly via some RSS feeds I've set up which makes using bsky hard for now. Is what it is. Anyway, that's all.

Thanks for the well wishes everyone, they worked! I got the job!!! :D

Here is another map I did for a mayoral race in Colorado this year. In this election, local restaurateur Yemi Mobolade defeated former Colorado Secretary of State Wayne Williams to become the first Black mayor of Colorado Springs. He is also the first non-Republican to be elected mayor of the city.

Finished the interview and now back! I am cautiously optimistic about it? I think I handled myself pretty well and at least personally had a nice time talking with the guy. Will hear back next week if I got the job or not. Crossing my fingers.

😁

Thank you very much!

I've been trying to think of a good way to do alt text on election maps for users who need alt text, and wanted to see what people thought. Most of my work in GIS mapping and so I want to look for more ways to make that accessible to blind and low vision folks. Appreciate any feedback or criticism!

Hi, a lot of the work I do is in GIS mapping. Here is an example of it. Let me know how it is, and if the alt text is okay. Last month, the city of Denver elected a new mayor in a runoff between former state senator Mike Johnston and former Denver Metro Chamber of Commerce CEO Kelly Brough.

Oh gosh thank you, I really appreciate the help!
