New comic! (link)

This comic came up in my work recently, as I was interviewing Janice about design and disability. She generously gave me permission to quote her in the comic. All the characters in this comic represent feedback I’ve heard as an accessibility professional, both from disabled and able-bodied folks.

It’s always interesting when I’m giving an accessible design 101 workshop how many people come with ideas about disability as a binary thing – they often think of the most extreme form of a disability as the most common kind (ex – a person with a visual disability literally getting no visual input, a person in a wheelchair not being able to move at all), whereas disabilities manifest in lots of different ways, and fluctuate with time and circumstance. This is why there’s not one perfect accessibility solution, and we need flexibility and accommodation in the way we design our environments and systems!

Anyways, mostly remember that you don’t know for sure what’s going on when you look at someone, and in the face of uncertainty, try to default to kindness. That serves me pretty well.

@palindroned shared this in a chat and we all pretty much started yelling. Heather Antos is comic editor at Marvel so… And the tweet is from yesterday (Jan 10th)

Also, this is a link to the tweet. 

Since someone official is right now giving Finn and spin off material some attention maybe tweet her about how exited you are? She’s not a top boss or anything, but she is did answer here and she is a Marvel editor. So I think it’d be good to use this chance to let someone at Marvel who’s already shown some positive attention that people want more Finn!

Yes I took my own advice and just did that.

And on that note @diversehighfantasy @stitchmediamix @fandomshatepeopleofcolor @starwarsfandomh8speopleofcolor

Oh, and thank you to @stitchyarts for making the original tweet that Heather replied to. Because damn this just made my week.

Awesome!

What you should and should NOT say when trying to support trans folks! See more resources about supporting trans and non-binary students! (Credit: Raffi Rex)

     Hey, just because you’re transgender, or you like to think of yourself as such doesn’t mean everyone has to fucking cater to you. You have no right to demand special treatment or respect from anyone. It’s disturbing how you think you deserve anything other than passive acceptance, because you don’t. So you want to become transgender? That’s great! Go for it. You do you. I got nothing, but respect for those who suffer gender dysphoria and wish to change themselves so they can be happy. I’m not going to treat you any differently than I would treat anyone else, and your asking me to do so proves just how selfish and/or entitled you really are.

Here’s how I think.

Respect is EARNED.
Not GIVEN, nor DEMANDED.

If you’ve been given, or demanded respect out of no context but that you’re “Transgender,” you are a fucking idiot and need to lose all that respect instantly. Plain and simple. 

So like, what do I have to do to EARN the right to have my correct name and pronouns used, and to make my own medical decisions? Because that’s all the op is saying, not to award trans people gold medals or anything.
