Blind people must save a lot on electricity.

I had a blind professor, last semester, and I swung through his office to make up an exam. It was a while before I knew he was in there because he was sitting with the lights off. I finally went in, apologized, and took the exam by the light of a nearby window (which was fine). Forty-five minutes into dead silence he panicked and yelled in this booming voiced, “WAIT, YOU CAN SEE!!!” before diving across his desk to turn on the lights. I’m sure he was embarrassed but I thought it was endearing and it highlighted a large aspect of disabled life that I hadn’t previously considered.

Sort of relatedly I once had professor who was deaf, but she had learned to read lips and speak so she could communicate easily with hearing people who didn’t know sign language. One day she had gotten off topic and was talking a little about her personal life, so that one of the students said “Oh, I know, I grew up in Brooklyn too.”

She stared at him for a long time and then said “How do you know I’m from Brooklyn?”

And he said “You have a Brooklyn accent.”

She said “I do?” and the whole class nodded, and then she burst out laughing and said “I had no idea! The school where I learned to speak was in Brooklyn. I learned by moving my mouth and tongue the way my teachers did. So I guess it makes sense that I have their accent, I just never thought about it.”

My moms a sign language interpreter, and she’s signed with people from all over the US. According to her, when she signs with people from the south they sign with a “drawl.” They have slower hand movements and exaggerate certain parts of the sign. People from the Midwest sign very fast and people from the south sign very slow.

So we were at a restaurant once and my mom started interpreting for someone who was trying to order and she was like “oh you’re from the south!”

And they were like “how did you know that?”

And she said “you sign with a drawl.” And they were really surprised that it came through that much.

It’s really interesting that even when not speaking verbally accents and heritage come through.

I’ve only read 15 but there are classics not listed which I have read such as Ethan Frome…

As I was working in my office at Ministry of Finance in #Islamabad #Pakistan, the weather made me take a break and cherish the outgoing wintery evenings.

@neil-gaiman did that actually happen to you? Pretty funny nevertheless

neil-gaiman

It did. Although it was in the advanced readers copy of Neverwhere, so we caught it before it went out to the public. Universal Find and Replace is never your friend.

Moved a bloomless lily from its cracked vase

to the ground

where it sprouted bold leaves, flowers, shoots

that then burned under sunlight

grew holey from being chewed

Replanted in a glass jar I then dropped

broke

a grimace sharper than the glass and dirt

spread across the sidewalk

Bare hands stained and nails caked

tenderly lifted the shoots into a clay pot

and sunk the flowered roots

into black soil in the shade, but no rain came

while under the roof, the shoots

assumed goners

blossomed like madmen

drunk on Manhattans

Flowers shriveled while the new green leaves

sheltered

and watered by now washed hands

defy gravity

Inept God and Her Eden

I try not to

think about it so much

but

somewhere in me

are dreams of us

dancing silly in classy clothes

you giving me a purple flower

walking talking on the road

kissing and crying under the sheets

getting married and having kids,

sitting together at 80 and thinking

how we still love and live

like we always did.

- you gave me a lavender flower in my dream last night

I felt a Funeral, in my Brain,

And Mourners to and fro

Kept treading - treading - till it seemed

That Sense was breaking through -

And when they all were seated,

A Service, like a Drum -

Kept beating - beating - till I thought

My mind was going numb -

And then I heard them lift a Box

And creak across my Soul

With those same Boots of Lead, again,

Then Space - began to toll,

As all the Heavens were a Bell,

And Being, but an Ear,

And I, and Silence, some strange Race,

Wrecked, solitary, here -

And then a Plank in Reason, broke,

And I dropped down, and down -

And hit a World, at every plunge,

And Finished knowing - then -
