Beat The Heat: Google Map fantasy


Fluffy lavender chicken on wooden legs 
Hiding out with AC
to chill the computers


Meet the fluffy Lavender Chicken. RantWoman has summoned the fluffy lavender chicken, a gift from a friend who did not really ask RantWoman whether she craved a fluffy lavender chicken. The fluffy lavender chicken's job is to help RantWoman manage extreme emotions: the heat wave, ambivalence about reopening, and sundry other Life Issues. 


One way RantWoman is attempting to be a resource MIGHT be to pass along info from this Google map. The problem: RantWoman's screen reader reads the items on the map as unabelled library Unlabelled library... unlabelled community center unlabelled community center. RantWoman's fantasy life includes the existence of some kind of programmer who might be about to improve the experience for screen reader users.


There. RantWoman will now resume efforts to stay ydrated and also cut down on the number of things she is trying to do at once.
