i want a blind person superhero who's only power/weapon IS their cane. We're talking beating criminals with it, having little gadgets in it, and whatnot. I want them to also have a seeing eye dog that just has laser eyes or something
Honestly as a blind person I’m so tired of seeing fictional blind characters who don’t use white canes or other guides. “They have special powers so they know what’s around them” or “they’re confident enough to not need a guide” are common tropes, and I’m tired.
Are people scared that using a white cane will make their blind character seem weak? They can’t use a cane because they’re so special that they already know what’s around them, and other blind people who use guides are inferior because they’re not special?
I’m tired. Give your blind characters white canes and other guides. Let them hold onto their friends, let them have guide dogs. Don’t make white cane users feel ostracized for not being “strong enough” to go without.
Another thing that pisses me off is when a sighted character comes up with the fantasy equivalent of braille and teaches it to the blind character. Braille was invented by Louis Braille, a blind man, in 1824. The blind character should be the one coming up with it.
Tldr I’m blind and tired of sighted people lol

update!
And an extra fact
The first few months after moving in with John when she was still 17(so before he introduced her to the others), Misha would stay up a bit after he fell asleep (usually on the couch while they were watching TV) just to watch him breathe to reassure herself she was safe and that he wasn't going to be gone by morning (like what happened to most people she knew in the compound) and half the time, John wouldn't actually be asleep and would wait for her to be asleep to ruffle her hair and whisper "you're gonna be okay". He didn't know her past not why she seemed so anxious all the time, but knew she was scared of something, so he helped. (He did have an inkling it was something to do with a death of some sort. So, he wasn't too far off.)
Supposed to be John Constantine giving Misha a haircut. Would've been about a week after she moved in with him. She wanted to cut what she felt was the last ties to a super bad situation, by changing one of the things she used to never be able to, her hair. Of course, he doesn't know the full extent of her past(not the whole compound in Estonia, raised to never expect to live the next day thing), just that she escaped a bad situation and wanted to change her look.
For John, it's just his new roommate asking for help. For Misha, it's a big step in her life, her gaining her freedom and proving she's not a puppet on a string anymore. She doesn't have to live by Mother Veronica's rules anymore. She can be herself. She can be free. And she can trust others to help her when she can't do something herself.
And to her, that's good enough. ❤️
(please pretend this is coming from my OC Misha, I can't get her blog working rn)
Wanna talk villains? My dead big sis had a kid with Bane. Her name is Katherine, I visit every weekend. Nine months in my sister's womb and this baby came out exactly like her daddy.
might start my villain arc this soon gang

Yes Batman bite the super strong alien assert your dominance >:o
If I, theoretically, started posting Ninjago OC content(more story focused and something I have been working on for a year and already have a 181 script page for season one ready)....
Would any of you be interested?
completely agree unless that ship is !nc3st. Otherwise, I wouldn't say harass but I would say it is slightly less okay.
a handy guide to shipping
kill yourself, joker

my stinky baby. Mr. Dasher Constantine Wayne. Yes, he is named after a reindeer and two DC characters.
rewatching s4, but...
He doesn't have Wind, the element Morro had that died with him unless he had some unknown relative. And he didn't have water, which was held by Nya at the time, even if unknown to her.
Did the spell only mean for elements alive at the moment? Or did it only require a certain number of elements?
Maybe the real reason the spell was temporary, was that he DIDN'T have all the elements.
And we know they had Morro planned already because of the end of the season's last episode.
