i saw this article being shared around today, attached to the context of "alt-text debates", which almost kept me from reading it. but it's not about "accessibility". it's so much more than that. it's honestly a really good look (feel?) into what it's actually like to be deaf/blind, and how so many sighted/hearing people fail to understand what it's like to live as a deaf/blind person, which is really important if you want to share this world with them. i'm bad at explaining things please just read the article.

here's the post(s) i saw it in earlier, which has some good insight as well:

Thanks for sharing, I was trying to find this article again. Awareness-broadening, paradigm-shifting material!
