I learned a lot, and I’ll definitely be checking out the other works referenced in this text! Very engaging read about how technology made for disabled people isn’t made with their input and how it’s framed as a “fix” or “necessary” to disabled people’s livelihoods, when that is often not true. The chapter about neurodivergence referencing Pokémon as a type of technology space that neurodivergent people can navigate their own way made me happy. Fuck autism speaks!!!
