People who are #blind from birth never develop #schizophrenia – what this tells us about the #psychiatric condition

In 1950, two researchers noticed something that didn’t quite add up. Hector #Chevigny, a writer who had lost his sight in adulthood, and #psychologist Sydell #Braverman were studying the #psychological lives of blind people when they stumbled upon an intriguing pattern ...

Not voting, as I was born #disabled

In the #blind community, I was #sighted, although I was born with #cataracts and have always been #LegallyBlind. My dad was blind, and navigated everywhere with his #whitecane. He ws part of an #advocacy #organiztion, and he traveled around the #US by air. His sister, my Aunt Buffy, was a #COBOL #programmer for Sears in #Chicago. She took me to her work once. We rode the #El with her #GuideDog, Ginger.

This meant that it was tough to get away with "Blind kids can't. . ." unless I'd actually *tried*..

For some context, we are very much interested in words, and also games and other couple enriching activities that can make our relationship warmer and deeper.
Do also suggest movies and documentaries that are great tow watch together. Any Recommendations and suggestions are much appreciated.

#Blind and #PartiallySighted people on Mastodon and the Fediverse use special apps called “screen readers” that read text out loud, so they can tell what is on the screen.

There are many things that #sighted people can do to make their posts more accessible to people using #Screen Readers.

It is all fine. And also there are #SpeechToText apps, allowing people dictate their posts. But wouldn't it be nice to have a #VoiceMessages available as well? In a way similar to instant communicators? It could work as a #ServerSide #plugin or in a client. Perhaps somebody is already working on it?
