Tarren (They/Them)<p>Observation of the day: <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/OHC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OHC</span></a> <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/Covid19" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Covid19</span></a> tests are *not* very accessible either for <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/blind" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>blind</span></a> or <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/dyspraxic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dyspraxic</span></a> users. All those tiny parts, so the dyspraxic me was struggling to hold the extractor steady while doing all the other stuff, and the test takes 15 minutes, so unless you have a *bunch* of minutes for Aira or something, you're using up a *bunch* of time figuring out how the thing works. I certainly wouldn't recommend them for <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/NeurodivergentBlind" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NeurodivergentBlind</span></a> people. <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/neurodivergentblind" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>neurodivergentblind</span></a></span></p><p>***Additional Hashtagsc***<br><a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/Accessibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Accessibility</span></a> <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/Neurodivergent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Neurodivergent</span></a> <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/Dyspraxia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Dyspraxia</span></a></p>

Sounds that, when identified, don't remotely faze me will drive me up a wall if I can't either perceive or envision what is making them. It's almost like the unknown factor triggers me more than the sound itself.</p>

Any of these a.gup.pe groups, you join by following, and talk in them by mentioning.

Tarren (They/Them)<p>Hey Fedizens! I'm seeing groups forming through things like the a.gup.pe system (the one I'll be using) for <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/Neurodivergent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Neurodivergent</span></a>, <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/ActuallyAutistic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ActuallyAutistic</span></a>, <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/ADHD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ADHD</span></a> folks etc., but I have yet to see a space for <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/NeurodivergentBlind" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NeurodivergentBlind</span></a> folx. So if you'd be interested in such a space, I'm creating <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/neurodivergentblind" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>neurodivergentblind</span></a></span> for those of us who are both to hopefully connect more. Please feel free to follow the group, and whether or not the group is for you, please boost so the group can reach all who would benefit from it.</p>
