bluecastleI just attended (virtually) a demo of screen readers. Accessibility is big here, and since I'm deputized to do web page stuff, I thought I'd better check it out.
Totally useful, but MAN annoying to listen to. And then I found myself thinking about Auggie (as everything is sort of filtered through a fandom filter for me lately!) on Covert Affairs and while he clearly has a braille translator hooked up to his computer (the little doodad in front of his keyboard where the wrist rest usually is), all that chatter in his ears all day long must be so wearying. Made me want fic where he just craves silence, except of course, that's taking away another sense.
All of which is totally wtf!random but it's better than the other crap floating through my head today.
