How do you make your heart say goodbye to a dream? 🍍

Time is not a renewable resource.

@Sblahov Me with pizza rolls every time.

@jordyn2493 I’m so sorry. I dealt with pain like that in my 20’s. Birth control pills helped though I didn’t like the mood swings that came with the meds.

Talk to me, ladies. Are your period/period cramps ever so bad you have to miss work? What do you do to manage the pain? My doctor is talking to me about surgical options in the next couple weeks. I can't do this every month. I've been in bed for 2 days with a heating pad.

Medical Professional: I worked with John who is blind. He taught me all I need to know about working with blind ppl. Me: No sir, you learned everything you need to know about working with John.

@SomeSteph All of those sound delicious!

@hey_danielle1 💜 It’s hard to pick one favorite but my grandmother’s fried potatoes or family tostadas or my mom’s spaghetti. I’m terrible at choosing 😝

So there are these beans we grew up eating, Ranch Style Beans you can only find in TX. My pops sent some for my last birthday and I just opened the last can. 😢 what’s a favorite food from your childhood?

@hey_danielle1 Noooo!

Remember that it’s nothing personal if we decline.

You’re being passively helpful by staying neutral and going about your business. If you want to actively offer assistance, ask how you can help.

Blind people use audible clues to gain context about what’s going on around us. If/when you see us approaching and you’re making some kind of noise (talking, typing, fiddling with your keys) don’t stop.

To dig into this some: szn is a trendy way to write the word season. It is accessible when read as s z n, because that's what it is. Accessibility is equal access not necessarily equal understanding. There is overlap here with Communications. More explanation in the replies. 1/5
