Friends, this is the coolest thing I have ever seen and you should see it too. A guitar amp labelled entirely in braille. #accessibility #blind #blindness #braille

This is not something it has ever occurred to me you'd need but then I was like why ISN'T this a thing

Tbf I didn't realise a lot about mobility issues and accessibility until my skeleton rebelled. It's easy to ignore things that don't affect you.

@Linzington I had an experience like this yesterday. There's a game controller coming out with a mini steering wheel on it for sim racing on a gamepad.

All I saw was people shitting all over it saying, well you could buy a wheel and pedals for that amount.

So I pointed out to them that it's a boon for disabled people who want to be racing with a steering wheel but can't due to lower limb issues.

Nobody stopped to think about accessibility.
