i dont usually quote paris hilton, but she did once say, “If somebody ever asks you to do something, do it really bad so you never have to do it again” and this advice has never failed me

You both realize, of course, that in the past few hours you have broken perhaps a dozen school rules.

Iron Man. That’s kind of catchy. It’s got a nice ring to it. I mean it’s not technically accurate. The suit’s a gold titanium alloy, but it’s kind of provocative, the imagery anyway.

How Pokémon Go is creating a barrier for gamers with disabilities

The augmented reality gaming app has taken the internet and world by storm, as people are desperate to catch and collect the characters, making friends and getting fit along the way. But not everyone can fully take part in the cultural phenomenon.

Hope Niantic listens and acknowledges this! The game isn’t even really out of beta yet, so much room for improvement. I also hope this pop-up community comes forward and helps disabled people participate. All those impromptu pokemon catching parties, shouldn’t be a big deal to organise carpools to get mobility impaired folks out playing as well. Or help people with mental issues like anxiety feel safe going out to catch some. Just like, if you’re going on a group pokemon hunt and can handle helping someone get there and back too, shout it out in the event?  I got faith in this. I see so many accounts of people having clean, positive gaming fun with Pokemon Go and I really believe most of us will want to share.

[fthgurdy]

I’m gonna reblog again because I see people in the replies going ‘just play normal Pokemon’ or ‘the point of the game is walking so you can’t change that’

Guys

Think for a minute about the shit you’re saying

This is the ‘should videogames have easy settings’ debate all over again and as usual, disabled people get the short shitty end of the stick. Just stop and THINK about someone other than yourself for a second. 

If the game gets a setting that allows disabled people to play, and you, despite not needing it, use it to cheat and thus feel dissatisfied with the game, that’s YOUR problem. YOUR fault. YOUR responsibility. Don’t you think it’s really fucking selfish to insist that a game should NOT cater to millions of physically disabled people who already have extremely limited accessibility to everything in life just because you might be tempted to use the special features to cheat?

[almostdefinitelydying]

Yes. This.

I am physically disabled. I cannot walk more than a few yards at very random intervals. I have the movement radius of an engineless car if I don’t have my motorised bike. I have a wheelchair for travel purposes.

I simply can’t play pokemon go like it’s “meant to”. I would very much like to try to play it eventually, because people seem to have so much fun with it. But as it is now it’s pretty much unavailable.. And snobby nerds gatekeeping doesn’t help either.

[teammysticblue]

All this. I’d also like to add some ways you can play without moving very much, even with the game as it is now. The key to this is incense, lures, and Poke Stops.

First off, if there is a Poke Stop that you can get to and hang at for a while, you’ll be golden. Just check the stop about every five minutes, and you’ll collect items. If you’re lucky, Pokemon might show up in the meantime. But what you want are incense and lures. They are more rare, but you can get them from Poke Stops, as well as levelling up, and if you feel like spending a little money, you can buy them in the store. Once you get a lure or incense, use it! Pokemon will appear about every five minutes with incense, I believe a little faster with a lure. You can use both at once, but I wouldn’t recommend it personally, since you want to get the maximum amount of playtime out of it. Meanwhile, continue collecting items from the Poke Stop.

This isn’t a perfect solution, but should allow you to have some fun with the game at least!

This connection between me and Voldemort… what if the reason for it is that I am becoming more like him? I just feel so angry, all the time. What if after everything that I’ve been through, something’s gone wrong inside me? What if I’m becoming bad?

Second chances don’t come around all that often. I suggest you take a really close look at it. This is your chance to earn that look in your daughter’s eyes, to become the hero that she already thinks you are.

Have you ever noticed the contrast in this shot? Emma has blonde hair and is wearing white clothes. And behind her are white objects and white background. Killian has dark hair and dark clothes. Behind him are black shelves. It just shows how they balance each other out perfectly and how the dark and the light mix. Gif from @onceuponadaily
