@kelly_neidert @space_lorde @YctUnt @indivisiblydntn I would respect that as it is not mine to say anything about. I am blind and I am sharing that this kind of dialogue is harmful. Please just respect that, or move on.

[Pawsitively Blind @pawsitiveblind]

@kelly_neidert @jcpeceli Thanks for the inaccessible and ignorant tweet. :) I am not sure why you cannot just respond in kind or ignore it since it was not directed at you.

[Pawsitively Blind @pawsitiveblind]

@space_lorde @kelly_neidert @YctUnt @indivisiblydntn Not necessary to mock blind people to make your point.

[Pawsitively Blind @pawsitiveblind]

@jcpeceli @kelly_neidert Is it really necessary to use blind in a negative sense?

[Pawsitively Blind @pawsitiveblind]

@tankshanks @JudgeClayJ Deaf residents are most definitely an important concern

[Pawsitively Blind @pawsitiveblind]

@JudgeClayJ Thank you for taking this seriously. The next interpreter needs to be either BEI/RID certified and qualified to take an assignment such as this.

@Isabel_XO92 @BlindUnfiltered I use the app on the phone instead of the remote and find that more accessible.

[unfiltered blind tweets @BlindUnfiltered]

From the inbox. Have any of you ever been told you act sighted? Do you see it as a compliment or what’s your take on it?

[Pawsitively Blind @pawsitiveblind]

@CatchTheseWords Proud of you!

[Pawsitively Blind @pawsitiveblind]

@apple this is important.

[Dice & Card World! @Dice_World]

Hey @AppStore @AppStoreGames what’s it take to show up in the #accessibility section? @Dice_World is a three time @AppleVis game of the year winner, and still not listed in the category. What gives? Show indie developers some love!

#YouMightBeAbleistIf you post about #ableism using an image and make no attempts to make it #accessible either by using #AltText or an #ImageDescription.

[Pawsitively Blind @pawsitiveblind]

@saucerspecial Image is #inaccessible as it does not have #AltText. #imagedescription please?

[Pawsitively Blind @pawsitiveblind]

@adillon845 Image is #inaccessible as it does not have #AltText. #imagedescription please?

[Pawsitively Blind @pawsitiveblind]

@SophNar0747 Interesting. I am blind and I really do not see that as ableist

[Pawsitively Blind @pawsitiveblind]

@SophNar0747 Your images do not have #alttext. They are inaccessible

[Pawsitively Blind @pawsitiveblind]

@blkgirllostkeys I agree. Some “high functioning” people on the Spectrum though do use this in a positive way when referring to their disability.

[Pawsitively Blind @pawsitiveblind]

@am_lehr Absolutely.
