@servicerotties I am sending you positive vibes, hugs and lots of love Kuno. You are being looked after by someone who loves you very much so I know you're in good hands. ππΎππ₯°
This morning, I trotted 2.5 km, and I saw all sorts of different houses. There wasn't a single one we would be able to go in and visit because none had an entrance that could be accessed by a wheelchair. This is why we don't pop in and have lunch with a neighbor or join friends to watch the hockey game at their house. It's not that we don't want to.
This is normal in most North American cities. Communities are not designed to be inclusive of people with disabilities and those who want to age in place. This is a big part of why people with disabilities are often socially isolated. But in some cities, they are making changes. Austin, TX is a great example. Most new housing is required to meet visitability standards. This will have a big impact on the housing needs of an aging population and create communities that are more inclusive. If you live in our city and have a visitable home we'd love to meet you. We'd bring cookies!
@servicerotties@CityofEdmonton Everyone that has the power to make decisions about your access to the world, needs to spend a day in your wheelchair π§β𦽠you need to walk a mile in someone else's situation before you can make decisions for them.
@servicerotties I apologize Kuno on behalf of people that are too lazy to educate themselves on how to behave around service animals. It's disrespectful and disappointing that people don't care enough to find out how to behave. Hopefully people will do better in future. ππΎπ
@botgctv@CTV Nobody posts any comments?? Weird. I wanted to love this show but it's so cheesy and embarrassing that it's Canadian. I thought we were past the cheap productions. Lily is wonderful but I'm not sure where the contestants are from?? The 80's? The outfits ....
@servicerotties@EdmontonOilers@Canucks Best thread ever π₯°π best laugh I've had in a bit. So glad hockey night in Kunoville is back. But what a terrible introduction for Chesnyy. The pathetic faces in the pictures....lol ππΎπ
@ilovenostalgia I watched. And I just rewatched a couple of episodes recently and never realized how racist and misogynistic it was. But back then, that was acceptable.
