There's a reason I want an OmniMask.

~ it's so I can be the coolest doomer at school ~

But also because I want more people to feel comfortable being around me:
both the immunocompromised or carers,
and people who read lips to help with Auditory Processing Disorder, loss of hearing, d/Deafness;
or anyone who just feels more comfortable seeing whole faces.

I definitely don't understand the "I want to see your FACE" people,
but I don't generally set out with the intention of unnerving people
(until they upset me and I've tried conflict resolution skills, but unfortunately haven't fully concluded it. THEN I get ornery!)

Jfc I got a lot of mileage out of one goddamn screenshot but hey!
My b/Blind and vision-impaired or sight-loss fellows shall feast tonight!

… If any of you care about niche multi-layered terminology for humorous agenerational interconnective co-created commentary on base genuine media, surprises, commentary, and intersections of such!

You goddamn linguistic nerds!!

Ooh, I feel like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YrHGbCyAqOU is structurally related.
OMG. THAT’S HOW ADHD BRAINS CONNECT IDEAS.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQKGUgOfD8U

AuHD or AudHD (urgh, I hate that initialism) people connect ideas by their structural relevance (and personal ascription of importance).
And, apparently, Neurotypical, neuro default, or neuro expected people connect ideas by narrative relevance! And, frankly, also how much importance they ascribe to the narrative, topic, or relevance.

Omg I’m an edu blogger?! This is like finding out that non-binary gender was an option! Holy shit.

new people. Welcome! You are hereby hello’d. Try an #Introduction or #Intro post! Reply, @ me, and / or compose your own post.
The top-right “New Post” button is near your profile picture. Yes! You can edit posts here.

Type whatever you like in the search bar e.g. your hobbies, interests, creative impulses, constructive ideas (recall the “compliment sandwich” structure), ideal outcomes per social interaction.

What do you seek? How do you want to help others? Where can you have the most impact?
When did you last take a break, drink water, stretch, close your eyes, and take a slow breath?

We’re happy to have you here!
While cooperation is ideal, conflict too can challenge entrenched ideas.

Avoid hate speech because you wouldn’t want it aimed at you or someone you care about.

Just remember to give people and yourself time to cool off, contemplate feedback, apologise where needed, and assume good intent from others.
Not everyone has your experiences or expectations, nor has everyone had a good day either.

#ThankYou for reading!

Be #kind and allow yourself opportunities to meet new people.

@meganL “the brain is activated” is pseudoscience but idk if it’s a language barrier thing. The rest is cool tho!

People do definitely look at me differently and act more standoffish on days I use my cane(s).

I’d definitely use the Alinker, if only for the speed increase and storage options! 😻

You can follow these hashtags or similar ones and try asking there too. Best to get varied perspectives since no one individual experiences everything

hey Final Fantasy Four Teen Award Winning Game players,

I have found an awesome video game accessibility thing for the chat log.
Like, visual text settings n shit, to be able to tell who tf said what and whether the person complaining is part of the damn job role that can do the thing they're complaining about.

Also no, I still haven't sorted how to make my chat log not gd tiny either.

Yes I do play a cute aggression-inducing catboi. GREEN HAIR. try /joy as miqo'te dude I s2g it's perfect I'm so angry.

#FF14 #FFXIV #accessibility #videoGame #gamer #gaming #MMOJRPG #MMO #JRPG #FinalFantasy #FinalFantasy14 omg just go play with the settings

Now if ONLY I could get the launcher to play nicely with the Steam Controller (so fucking ergonomic?!? and customisable?!?) then maybe it'd be perfect and I could finish Shadow Bringers by 2025 ffs. #EaseOfAccess #disabled #disability

Alt text in main text to: "FF14 "Chat Log Name Display Settings" from the "Character Configuration" menu's "Chat Log" sub-menu. My settings are 'Forename Abbreviated, World name Display checked, Display class/job icons, Display class/job abbreviations, and Color class/job name only."

This is ALMOST perfect, if there was even a 6 cm by 2 cm clear area in the middle to allow any lip reading!

Which is the best for “oh shit bird flu soon probably”?
Like, I think the first one is probably the best balance of “cheap mask and filters, (FF)P3 filter, goggles, doesn’t look too freaky, comparatively.”

hi @Tusky, is there a way to show the alt text in image attachments with a solid background (the current one is semi-transparent)

thank you in advance :)
