I love that you use AI to generate your descriptions.

Rep that shit hard yo. :)

@LavenderPawprints hell yeah! Plus, my ADHD ass can't figure out how to effectively describe such things😬so I'm thankful it exists.
in reply to BeAware :veriweed:

To think, even a year ago, we had to rely on the kindness of others to describe things to us if we couldn't see them.

And quality was hit and miss...

And let's not forget how people generally will get annoyed if you ask them. That or they'll be like... "I don't know, it's a red ball dude..."

I wish I was making this up.

No dissing those who want to provide descriptions but don't know how or are unable to, but to the others that are like, "why do you need to know what it looks like? You're blind..." Fuck off.

Yes, an extract from what I've been told before

@LavenderPawprints wow. Tbh, I used to just say "I'm sorry, but I literally cannot accurately describe what I am seeing" and that got me added to Oliphant's tier 3 blocklist for being "ableist"🤦‍♂️it's not that I didn't WANT to describe things myself, it's that I literally cannot. My brain cannot fathom descriptions like that. Thank fuck for ChatGPT because I've such genuine folks like yourself who are visually impaired.

@LavenderPawprints ironic that by adding you to a blocklist for being ableist they themselves became ableist.

@laxla @LavenderPawprints 😬they ARE the worst on Fedi in my experience, so please don't enlighten me because that makes my skin crawl.

@LavenderPawprints I mean, it's more funny than anything. Someone failed to understand causation between political opinions and religion (not necessarily in that order) is a thing. You can... Guess how it goes. Can tell you the actual story if you want.
in reply to Laxystem (Masto/Glitch)

@laxla @LavenderPawprints nah, it's fine. I'm in a decent mood today and political/religious discourse makes me moody. We'll just chalk it up to "people are weird, and a lot of the time, just assholes".🤦‍♂️
in reply to BeAware :veriweed:

@LavenderPawprints there isn't much to it, yeah. People get "caught" in an opinion, then argue when disagreed with - even if they've been convinced, they just continue for their Ego's sake.
in reply to BeAware :veriweed:

I don't hold it against you.

I have the same problem, so.

What cracks me up is when abels accuse others of being abelist. It's like the people who try to tell me that I shouldn't use the words "blind" or "deaf" to describe my own disabilities.

Really? Because I am blind and I am legally deaf. And I know waaaaay more blind people than not and none of us get pissy about the term "blind."

@LavenderPawprints wow. It's SO weird to be angry FOR someone else...

I don't get the logic. Why should I be angry for someone else if that person doesn't even care? Seems like a massive waste of my energy...🤦‍♂️

in reply to BeAware :veriweed:

You'd think, but everyone has to have an opinion, even when that opinion is on a topic that really doesn't involve them in the slightest.
