rant o' the day
Mar. 11th, 2006 08:31 pmDear World,
Why in holy hell does a solar powered talking BIBLE exist, and braille sticky labels for spice racks do not, or at least I can't find them (but I can find this abomination easily enough, God help me.)
And yes, I KNOW one could just buy a braille labeller and make one's own. One does not WANT TO. One wants to GET SOMEONE ELSE TO. This is why the INTERNETS exist - to fuel one's laziness. This is why one only buys pre-adapted board games, which pretty much screws one out of ever playing Fluxx or Apples to Apples, unless enough blindies are liable to complain enough for them to make a brailled version rather than just getting their sighted helpers to do it, which will probably happen sometime around Armageddon.
Thank you so much byebye,
-L
Edit: ALSO! Why is it that there are four different and distinct models of brailled BINGO CARDS and not one single children's game more modern than chinese checkers? People go on and on about inclusion at an early age, but it all comes down to the helper/helpee relationship in the end, doesn't it? Of course.
(Yes, I'm bitter. Get over it.)
