You know what field desperately needs more disabled people in it? Medicine. You know what field is least friendly to disabled people? Medicine. I’m not even looking at an MD, just research, and still getting locked out at every turn.

a few weeks ago I got briefly knee deep in the works of a gemologist named egor gavrilenko who has three websites, and let me tell you, they’re all bangers.

People often don't realize that pricing for library ebooks & audiobooks is super expensive and libraries are only purchasing the license for the item. Publishers will often force a repurchase after x amount of time / uses

The constant fandom whiplash over Maglor is funny actually. "He's the good one" "he's the worst one" "he's soft and gentle" "he's a violent warrior." STOP. he's barely a character. He's got like one long paragraph of canon across the Silm and relevant HoME - he's whoever you want him to be babes
