  7. CW: Rant about some bullshit on the Fedi

    Okay so as someone who has MULTIPLE blind friends

    One of the things that pisses me off so much about Fedi is how fucking PERFORMATIVE it is about accessibility

    Example: they will scream into the void about how you should always add image descriptions. Which is well-intentioned. They even have bots that literally publicly shame you if you don't.

    But not everyone can necessarily make an image description. That doesn't mean we shouldn't just say "don't post images." That's fucked up. I used to have issues posting descriptions when I had more brain fog problems. Sometimes I still do.

    And Fedi is not consistently helpful with the alt4me hashtags. Like good fucking luck getting people to help you.

    And all this on top of the fact Mastodon nor anything else supports adding captions to video, which is perhaps one of the most important accessibility features for videos.

    Yet they will also say "don't use AI for image descriptions." Most of my blind friends say they'd rather have an image description done by AI than none at all. And it ain't like people are stepping up to help; I know, I've tried.

    It isn't like I'm absolutely in love with AI, but I absolutely will champion accessibility every time because people I care about need it.

    So my rant is: people care about accessibility up until the moment they actually have to do something, then they suddenly resort to just shaming people and yelling at them. And that's horseshit. I'd rather you just stop pretending you give a fuck.

    Here's my position:

    1. Add an image description if you can
    2. Stop fucking shaming people for not being able to
    3. Shut those fucking image description reminder bots down, that's how you literally get people to turn against you; no one wants to be nagged by a fucking bot
    4. Start helping in the #alt4me hashtag if you can
    5. As much as I hate AI, I acknowledge that it is useful for my blind friends in this limited instance. Do not shame people for using generated descriptions. "Blah blah the planet blah blah Capitalism" The planet is already well and truly fucked.

    I cannot emphasise #4 enough, if you do not want people to use AI, don't give them a need to use it.

    (And don't police blind people or tell them what tools they can or can't fucking use)

  8. BTW the #alt4me is because I am myself disabled. It is too much work for me. I have disabled hands and chronic migraine. I have visual hypersensitivity heightened by years of cluster headaches.

    The thing about Special Relativity is if you look closely at it you see that in fact there is still an ether, it is just the ether wind moves differently in different ‘frames’. It merely HAPPENS that in the ‘frame’ of the apparatus the wind speed is zero!

    So Special Relativity does NOT solve M-M!▪️

  9. The nuclei of Helium He and Oxygen O, as deduced from the Master Field Equation of the Unified Field Theory that I had the bad luck to discover.

    (I sought it and found it by never using ANY representation of electromagnetism but Maxwell’s theory—never ONCE, for instance, speaking of ‘speed of light in a vacuum’, but always ‘speed of a wave in an EM field’—and thus also implicitly assuming Special Relativity was incorrect. A bit more about that ...)

  10. is there a standard hashtag/profile page value/etc to indicate "I don't boost media without alt text"? (bonus round: also indicate "I only reluctantly boost when the text is auto generated")

  11. They're left perpetually on cusp of ☠️ing on street. Please also consider this keeps there from being enough for food, hydration & hygiene. This is not okay! Please help fight!

  17. 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 youtube.com/watch?v=YrHGbCyAqO is structurally related.
    OMG. THAT’S HOW ADHD BRAINS CONNECT IDEAS.

    youtube.com/watch?v=cQKGUgOfD8

    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.
