imagined ableism, mh
i wanna ask friends and family if they'd be open to learning some sign language to make it easier for me to communicate in Bad Situations, but i'm scared to get an answer like "i don't really have time for that how about you just don't go nonverbal again? how did you deal with it previously? maybe do that instead? because then i wouldn't have to put in my own time and effort for accessibility"
