@IrisKalmia Gettin' there
@raccoon It... it me D:
@ElectricKeet I use Chrome as my primary browser, so my recommendation wouldn't likely be of much use to you. ^^; I'm just using the first one I found that works, honestly.
@kara_dreamer@witches.town It's worth a try!
Hey if you have a manual transmission, solid steel ball shift knobs feel *amazing* in your hand. And they weigh down the shift lever so it feels tighter and smoother. :D
@indecisivetwat Same!! The idea dawned on me in the same way one might suddenly realize that it's dark outside because it's night time.

Sometimes, one of the hardest things about having a disability is in admitting to yourself when you need or would benefit from a tool to assist you with things that non-disabled folks can easily do on their own.
Relatedly: If you have weapons grade ADHD like I do, get a text-to-speech plugin for your browser. It makes a world of difference in reading particularly "slippery" articles and texts.
@slowbird I've never seen them work, personally-- I assumed it was because they were broken as noted in this Github issue: https://github.com/Vavassor/Tusky/issues/84
@slowbird They were working for you before?
Happy May Two-Four to my Canadian friends! I hope this day is kind to you. :D
@ElectricKeet I want a $253 bill now.
@acetone_kitten Auuugh. I'm sorry, hon. That's so rough. >..<
consent
@starkatt @literorrery Let's try this a different way:
If we cannot guarantee that we sufficiently understand all contexts, we cannot trust ourselves to make that judgement.
Unless we're always assuming any answer to secretly mean "no," at some point, we have to trust in our ability to trust and believe a "yes" answer.
Trusting a "yes" answer at any point /could/ result in being responsible for assault regardless of context. Under this model, every accepted yes is a calculated risk.
consent
@starkatt @literorrery Right, but if the responsibility is entirely placed on the person asking and not the person answering (which seems to be the model presented), that means accepting a yes that later changes to a no makes you responsible for assault, regardless of the context.
consent
@starkatt @literorrery At some point, we have to trust the people we care about to tell us the truth when we ask them for consent. If we can't trust them to answer honestly, the only option is to assume the answer is "no" every single time.
If we assume that some people will at some point retroactively change a yes to a no, the only safe response is to hear all answers as "no."
I've fallen into the latter camp, 'cause I don't know what else to do and I'm just scared. All the time.

@vahnj Kobolds attempting to ride unwieldily things such as:
• a twine-wrapped bundle of sneks
• a barrel
• a large helium balloon
• other kobolds
• an RC car they don't understand isn't able to listen to their commands
• a single rollerblade
• a vacuum cleaner

@vahnj One way or another, the Earth is going to outlive us all.
