da

if she had listened to people's objections I would've found it easy to move on from. But when her solution is to demand that we disclose our disabilities and to publicly request accommodations, then I think that crosses the line into active, deliberate discrimination.


I agree with this. Personally, I wouldn't participate in an exchange where I could request fic and get podfic. I don't listen to it or fiction audiobooks, because I can't follow stories that I can only hear. It's not a disability, but it's a problem. Would I have to plead my case for being able to opt out of podfic?

Fuck you, no, I wouldn't. I just wouldn't participate in that exchange. I find that that offensive, so demanding that people catalog their disabilities to opt out of certain things is fucking insane.
