The Dreamwidth logo is in red, yellow, white, blue, and green, echoing the stripes. (Disability Pride)

Not sure if this quite qualifies here, but people are fans of animals, so why not!

[tumblr.com profile] why-animals-do-the-thing had a colleague reach out and ask if they could help get some feedback on setting up a zoo tour for people with low vision. Honestly, I read the suggestions, and they sound pretty great, IMO.

You can check out the outlined plan over here. If you don't have a Tumblr account of your own, I'd be happy to pass on any feedback on your behalf.

Over at [personal profile] cynthia1960 's journal, there is a good discussion going that may be of interest:

Brainstorming online access for Worldcon and other conventions

So, I'm interested in bouncing around ideas that look at how building online accessibility can enhance Worldcon and other conventions. Feel free to toss out ideas here!

So my local con, Arisia, is having a Ribbon Game this year, a contest to see who can collect the most ribbons on their badges.

To this end, they are encouraging staff members to make their own ribbons to hand out. So I thought that perhaps I could come up with a good disability advocacy message to offer fans who want to be advocates. Last year my little pins with the icon for sign language, handed out to anyone who could sign, and wanted one, went over pretty well.

But I cannot, for the life of me think of a good message.

I thought about "Not all disabilities are visible" but that is well over the 28 character limit.

Suggestions, ideas? Is this a terrible idea?
