Do I still have to get my shit together even if the online form is not fully accessible?

Elon Musk, thankfully, has not managed to completely obliterate Twitter / X usefulness to online communities. For instance, recently someone on Twitter / X (can anyone teall RantWoman HATES the rebrand?) was howling into the ether about how, the first time they saw a new medical provider, the first thing the provider asked about was does the patient have a POLST order (This site is monolingual; RantWoman MAY previously have linked something topical that has many language variants.


RantWoman invites readers who do not know what a POLST order is to click on the link above or use their search engines for more information. The point is I am pretty sure exactly NO ONE wants "have you thought about dying?" to be the first thing one deals with when meeting a new provider.


Tonight though a friend sent RantWoman something that at least starts out on a more palatable footing the Get your shit together checklist


RantWoman definitely recommends readers check it out!


Is it fully accessible? Ummm it reads fine with the screen reader but suppose one wanted to fill it out online without having to do a bunch of adaptations themselves? 


And about people who can get their shit together better if they start in other languages?


In any case, RantWoman WILL be trying to wade into some of this with the reast of the Rant Family. Stay tuned....
