was mostly keeping it together until I read Kyle MacLachlan's tribute to David Lynch
"Forty-two years ago, for reasons beyond my comprehension, David Lynch plucked me out of obscurity to star in his first and last big budget movie. He clearly saw something in me that even I didn’t recognize. I owe my entire career, and life really, to his vision. What I saw in him was an enigmatic and intuitive man with a creative ocean bursting forth inside of him. He was in touch with something the rest of us wish we could get to. Our friendship blossomed on Blue Velvet and then Twin Peaks and I always found him to be the most authentically alive person I’d ever met. David was in tune with the universe and his own imagination on a level that seemed to be the best version of human. He was not interested in answers because he understood that questions are the drive that make us who we are. They are our breath. While the world has lost a remarkable artist, I’ve lost a dear friend who imagined a future for me and allowed me to travel in worlds I could never have conceived on my own. I can see him now, standing up to greet me in his backyard, with a warm smile and big hug and that Great Plains honk of a voice. We’d talk coffee, the joy of the unexpected, the beauty of the world, and laugh. His love for me and mine for him came out of the cosmic fate of two people who saw the best things about themselves in each other. I will miss him more than the limits of my language can tell and my heart can bear. My world is that much fuller because I knew him and that much emptier now that he’s gone. David, I remain forever changed, and forever your Kale. Thank you for everything."

🧵How can a sighted person gain more understanding of what blind and partially sighted people see?

RNIB Eyeware is an innovative new app which immerses users in experiences of sight loss by applying filters for eight eye conditions, which can be adjusted for severity. 1/4
What a person with age-related macular degeneration (AMD) might see while watching television. On screen, a man wearing a blue suit is being interviewed on a news programme against a red background but the image is very distorted as are the surroundings in the living room. A white campervan parked in the street. Only the wheel and a small part of the vehicle are visible in the centre of the visual field due to a filter which simulates what someone with retinitis pigmentosa (RP) might see. A busy street in central London with shops on one side and the road on the other. A filter simulating what someone with diabetic retinopathy might see has been applied making the image look unclear.

Jim is showing a pink and green cardboard VR headset with an RNIB logo to Hazel, and a screen behind them is dislaying a simulation from the Eyeware app.
