we should not have introduced "fancy" subtitle formatting like impossible to read coloured text, moving subtitles, and subtitles that deliberately overlap to the youtube music video subtitle makers out there, like uh! it's cool that your subtitles are aesthetic and cool... but THE INTENDED PURPOSE IS TO MAKE IT MORE ACCESSIBLE THIS ISN'T ACCESSIBLE PLEASE

You do not have the right to touch someone's disability aid without asking, whether that aid be a wheelchair or an AAC device.

"It's just a tablet, though." No, it is not. It is my voice. Touching or moving my device without my permission is like touching my mouth without permission, it's weird, gross, invasive, and rude. Stop.

Pushing someone's wheelchair without permission is like picking them up and moving them out of the way eithout permission, its weird, invasive, gross, and weird. Stop.

btw something im working on learning is that disabled is something that im allowed to be in public.

im allowed to lay down on the living room floor if im in middle of a conversation & enjoying it but feeling too lightheaded to sit up. im allowed to sit at the table to do meal prep and to sit on a stool at the stove to cook. im allowed to use my cane while i run errands.

if people are uncomfortable with my disabled existence, it’s their responsibility to work on that, it’s not my responsibility to try to hide my disability from the view of abled people.

i shouldn’t be relegated to my bedroom or to my house or to places where no one else will be just to have accommodations. im allowed to just exist & not have to pretend to be able bodied for the comfort & convenience of others.

you know how every few months someone tries to invent captioning glasses and sign language gloves for Deaf people and they're almost always useless and never what people actually want? yeah the Blind equivalent of that is smart canes
