Hey, wild idea here, but when you click the box to add alt text, you should still be able to see the image that you're describing. You shouldn't have to write image descriptions from memory.

Probably my favorite example of “everything you put on the internet is forever” is when I went to block someone on tumblr and when I went to look at their carrd they had a blingee on it that I had made and published exclusively on my bimboland profile

I think what really bothers me about video game difficulty discourse is the way that it equates "inaccessibility" with "artistic choices that may alienate certain disabled players."

[maxknightley]

like, okay, speaking as a musician and an autistic woman: there are certain sounds that I am simply not going to enjoy, right? I don't like music that's too heavy on the high end, because it sounds shrill. I've listened to music that had so much Stuff Going On at once that it literally made me feel sick from overstimulation. But that doesn't mean that music shouldn't exist, or that the creators should make a hypothetical pared-down remix just so I specifically can enjoy it. There's other music out there which I like! It's fine! I'll listen to that instead!!

and, idk, it also bothers me because there are a lot of legitimate accessibility features that I do think every game should have. there's no reason for a puzzle game to be inaccessible to colorblind people. there's no reason that an execution-heavy game shouldn't allow you to set up alternate control schemes. but the solution is not "make the puzzles easier" or "make the bosses do less damage" any more than the "solution" to a complicated piece of writing is "create a version where everything is written using simpler language." idk! it just feels like a refusal to engage with art as art and not Product.

on one hand it's fine and even good to self-efface and have a little humour about oneself and one's beliefs, fuck knows i certainly do--but it does bother me a little when people joke about how they're being a "joyless marxist" or "the friend that's too woke", it feels like such a capitulation to always be preemptively apologizing for expressing progressive political positions

like in general making care work dependent on sentimentality is a fucking bad idea lol, to some extent you can't really prevent the fact that people interacting with one another will probably feel some type of way about each other but esp when you are taking on a role where people depend on you for basic bodily care tasks, necessary medications, proper performance of potentially dangerous procedures &c it's not actually about YOU or your feelings at all & the more you make it into that type of ego trip looking for self satisfaction because youre soooooo self sacrificing and empathetic and you love your patients sooooooooo much -- the less you actually see & think about & serve those patients. never confuse personal fondness for evidence you are doing right by that person -- completely irrelevant & not at all protective against or mutually exclusive of abuse. people who are disliked or dislikable also need care! you signed up to provide it to them. if you cannot do bear to do that and do it fucking well then find a different job

if english speakers can learn just one more german word to use it should be "ticketficker" ("ticketfucker", derogatory slang term 4 "ticket inspector")

Don't: ask your friends to start a band together

Do: ask your friends to start a successful band together

you have to believe in it to make it happen

love when someone opens a reply by stating they're a philosophy student as a qualification, which is one among many anti-qualifications you can give

[toskarin]

it's an especially funny one because I struggle to think of times where someone with a philosophy degree has joined a conversation by saying that. it's usually more "well that's not really what kierkegaard was saying" with full disregard for citations until nine posts deep when they eventually remember they should probably qualify that they've read the material

see when people try and nitpick me because i call my dog "my dog" when it's technically "the family dog".......well first of all i still call my brother "my brother" and not "the family boy". although maybe that should change. second of all sorry i'm still thinking about the family boy. btw i fell asleep while making this post last night and i think you can tell
