The sheer energy. The beauty of this woman. The women hugging in the background. The man in rainbow parachute pants. This whole video is art.

In case anyone finds it helpful because mobility aids are horrifically expensive and inaccessible…

And for those people who have access to mobility devices but might benefit from a second chair they can abuse without risking expensive damage…

Erik Kondo has made a website, Open Source Innovations, that details plans for DIY wheelchairs. These wheelchairs can be made from common materials like wood, plastic, and pvc. They are lightweight and can be custom fit to the user allowing from the same degree of movement you would get from a custom chair. And they are durable and easily repairable. (he has been stress testing his latest design by dropping it down stairs, dropping it out of a car, launching it across a driveway, and throwing it off a deck). Its 12lbs and I think he said its was in the $200 ish range for parts.

He also is working on cheap, open source, accessible designs for beach chairs, off road chairs, motorized attachments (think smart drive), and so on. Plus he skateboards in his wheelchair. Cool dude, helpful info, pass it on.

It's incredibly sad people have to resort to this, but it's a damn good resource. Use it. Spread awareness. Maybe one day people with physical disabilities won't need DIYs like this. But until then, reblog and share.

This is Accessibility!

That's so amazing! It is unfortunate that so many people will need this, but very very cool that it exists

That other link seems to be broken.

Thank you so much for putting the working one!

I will add it to my original reblog as well.

there's this phenomenon i've noticed on youtube which i dub "man math" which is when men STEM-ify hobbies/activities/art forms in order to make them more masculine. it's very noticeable in the cooking video sphere where there's an endless stream of videos made by men along the lines of "the SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN best way to cook an egg" (and dgmw, i watch them and find them helpful, but the observation stands), but i notice it also in the way men approach ceramics (a lot of focus on mold-making and slip-casting to perfection, basically reinventing one man mass-production rather than play and discovery), tailoring/sewing/knitting/textile art, gardening and other nature-oriented hobbies, interior decor, furniture making and woodworking, journaling/planning/productivity, even drawing and painting, there's always some man math angle to it that although interesting it often strikes me as some sort of overcompensation to move away from the inherent vulnerability that comes with art making and once you notice it it's literally everywhere

they even do this shit with a fucking moka pot trying to optimize the fuck out of it by making it as complicated (and dangerous! - "start by pouring boiling water into the reservoir" no how about you put normal fucking water in it so you can close it without burning yourself)

and sourdough as though anyone's starter is actually just like anyone else's that shit varies door to door and month to month don't you dare try to copy someone else's technique exactly

Yeah, I'll defend this post every time. A key part of "man math" is that these guys are so obsessed with "science" as an idea that they're terrible at it. They're so focused on finding a formula for everything that they ignore how reality works and how much variety there is.

This isn't "stem is for boys", this is men using pseudoscience to justify their sense of superiority and insert their obsession with hierarchy and "winning" into everything. There's a rigidity to it that has no connection to reality and every connection to ego.

#like the point of a lot of arts isn’t to find the most optimal way to do it #it’s to have fun and express yourself #the best way to cook an egg is however you like to eat them #personally I like to fry the shit out of my eggs and have a crispy outside and a fully cooked yolk #it’s not the best way to do it but it’s mine #you know?
