  1. I’m a Ceraunophile, but the foster kitten is definitely not. Vancouver had eight thunderclaps on Tuesday night. It was exhilarating for me, but it sent her straight under the bed. When another clap happened this morning, she was scared all over again.

    I spent the morning soothing her and showing her she was safe. It’s a good reminder that fear usually comes from things we don't understand. To her, the thunder is a scary threat. To me, it’s just a "sonic boom" caused by air expanding.

    Understanding the "why" behind the noise changed my whole experience. I’m happy to say she is finally out from under the bed today. It’s a small win for her nervous system.

    When we understand how our own systems work, we don't have to hide from the "thunder" in our lives. We can learn to regulate and stay grounded instead.

  6. The healing secret is Negative Pressure. This is a Yin way to heal.
    (2/2)
    Instead of pushing down, we lift the tissue up with electronic cupping.

    Suction pulls skin and fascia away from the muscle. It creates space where there was none.

    This space acts like a vacuum. It pulls fresh blood and nutrients into dry spots.

    The sticky "glue" melts. It turns back into a slippery liquid. When your internal layers can slide again, we call that Liquid Silk.

    You aren't just fixing one muscle. You're restoring your whole system.

    This is HumanWare. These are the habits that keep your body’s hardware running smooth.

    Self-respect is the master switch. It means knowing your body doesn't always need more pressure.

    Sometimes, it just needs room to breathe.

  11. The Silver Web (1 of 3): Is your superhero suit too tight? 💃✨

    Imagine you’re wearing a thin, itchy superhero suit that covers you from head to toe. If that suit is too tight, you simply can’t dance! This "suit" is real—it's called Fascia.

    Think of Fascia as a thin, silver "web" wrapping around every muscle, bone, and organ. It’s your body’s internal fiber-optic network. When we get stressed or stuck in old patterns, this web gets "sticky" and tight, trapping old energy and slowing down our "Humanware" (the physical equipment of our nervous system).

    To be a Hi-Fi Human, we have to keep this silver web clear and calm. When the suit is loose and shiny, you don’t just move—you flow. 🕸️🧘‍♀️

  16. Huh. SO the new #Humanware BrailleNote Evolve is apparently partnering with #vispero to offer 6 months of "JAWS For BrailleNote" subscription for free. I have many questions:

    - How is Jaws for BrailleNote different from JAWS for Windows?
    - What happens when the 6-month period is up?
    - How does offering only 6 months at the beginning of one's ownership of the Evolve line up with working your way up to JAWS from the Keysoft interface? WOuldn't the subscription already have expired once the learning curve gets to that point, or can one redeem this later?

  21. Today was the real start of my semester at UOW. I had a meeting with disability support to get everything in place, since I officially began yesterday. My first tutorial is at 3:30 this afternoon, followed by a lecture straight after. It feels good to be settling in and starting to find my rhythm.

    I also contacted HumanWare about my Brailliant Braille display, which has been giving me some issues. Thankfully, it’s still under warranty, so I’ll be sending it off for repairs tomorrow. Fingers crossed it comes back in good shape!

    Tonight’s dinner is chicken schnitzel with mashed potatoes and veggies, prepared by my husband, who is an absolutely brilliant cook. I feel very lucky.

  26. Audiobook player with non-essential buttons blanked out.
    Used electrical tape front and back.

    Humanware supply a "shield" which blanks some buttons.
    But Pitch, Speed & Eject buttons still add unnecessary complexity.

    Device is from the "disability aids" industry, so very overpriced.
    But paid for by the #AustralianGovernment as part of DEI. (They don't call it that - but the Trumpists know what it is.)

  31. 📢 I'd like your help!

    Me and a friend both have old #HumanWare #BrailleNoteApex #NoteTaker's lying around, and would like to see if we can do anything useful with them. They've been discontinued for some years now, and unfortunately HumanWare never made an SDK for them, but they run Windows CE 6.0 with a custom shell called #KeySoft, so I am fairly confident that we could develop something for them once we reverse-engineer KeySoft's API.

  34. I have a question for my #Blind friends who have #BrailleDisplays in general and more specifically from #Humanware. Did you choose to purchase the extended warranty for your unit? If so did you choose 1 or 2 years? If not why not; and what informed your choice. Thanks for allowing me to learn from you. I express my gratitude in advance.
