I’m so exhausted by #accessibility being constantly treated as optional.
If you treat accessibility as an optional add-on, you are treating #disabled people as optional.

Ever wonder why many steps are painted bright yellow at the top? It’s so that I don’t accidentally launch me and my 200lb wheelchair off a sudden cliff.

Migraines make my ears buzz-ring. My ears are currently ringing so loud that I swear the sound from it hurts.

I'm so glad that technological advances apparently mean nothing ever needs an owner's manual anymore.
My oven? Nothing. Computer monitors? Of course not — why would you want to know or understand its settings?
But random white-labelled string lights I buy always have their own booklet.
