The Starship Changeling

Hello everyone, and welcome aboard The Starship Changeling. please move down to the end of each row, filling every available seat, and stand clear of the doors. My name is Randy, and I often go by Changeling. I am an #A11y (accessibility) consultant, lover of horror novels and roller coasters and the human partner in crime to a feline named Alex. I mostly talk about blindness related issues, things i'm personally doing, tech, books and more. For more info, see the page titled "About" in the navigation section, or see the footer of any site page for other corners of the internet where I can be found. Thank you, and enjoy your ride on The Starship Changeling.

    📰🤑 I’ve started selling this T-shirt and donating a portion of the proceeds to advocate for more accessible street signs and pedestrian signals in Manatee County, Florida. Pester me if interested.

    See? My Friends by me the best gifts. My friends could learn a thing or two… Note the first instance of Friends is capitalized. #BlindBarbie #NonbinaryThings

    The image shows a person sitting indoors, holding a Blind Barbie® doll. The person is bald and wearing a dark blue T-shirt with a graphic design on it. They are smiling slightly and looking towards the camera. The Blind Barbie® doll they are holding has long brown hair and is dressed in a pink top and a purple skirt. The doll is also holding a small white cane, similar to those used by visually impaired individuals. In the background, there is a table with some items on it, a large plant, and a window with curtains. The setting appears to be a casual indoor environment, possibly a dining or living area.

    This was a special request by @JDenning@mastodon.lol He and I enjoy this kind of thing.

    😎 I just want to take a minute to say thank to everyone who was supportive during the last few days. Your comments and interactions meant a lot. I’m not always go at expressing how I feel with words, so I make these pictures.

    I was discharged yesterday afternoon. More follow-up appoinments are needed, but at least I’m on regular food again.

    The image depicts a whimsical, cartoon-like character designed to resemble a hemorrhoid. The character has a large, red, wrinkled appearance, with a big, wide smile showing its teeth. It is wearing oversized, bright pink sunglasses, adding a humorous touch. The character has small arms and legs, giving it a playful and lighthearted look. The background is plain and neutral, which makes the character stand out prominently.

    There’s a party going on in Room 315!!!

    The image shows a green alien with large black eyes sitting on a toilet in a bathroom. The alien is wearing a pink suit and is reading a colorful book. The bathroom has white tiled walls and a teal shower curtain with pink stripes. There is a roll of toilet paper on a holder next to the alien. At the top of the image, there is text that says "thirking place," which is a playful misspelling of "thinking place."

    📰 Just found out Monday’s the day when they’re gonna stick a scope in both ends and try to figure out WTF is going on. Monday’s also the day I find out if my ass and face look the same… Hopefully the doctor doesn’t get mixed up!

    Blood transfusions can be fun!!! Seriously, though, bring a book or something. It’s 4 hours of being strapped to a bed via an IV line, and you can’t even sleep because they keep coming in to check your vitals every 5 minutes or so.

    Yes, I do use both at the same time. No, it is not like a real life ame of Rhythm Heaven Fever. DisabilityChic

    The image shows a person standing indoors against a plain light-colored wall. They are bald and smiling. They are wearing a sleeveless gray t-shirt and beige cargo shorts. In their right hand, they are holding a black cane with a handle shaped like a dragon's head. In their left hand, they are holding a white cane with a green handle and a black wrist strap. They are also wearing a medical alert bracelet on their left wrist.

    I submitted this creation for a #WhiteCaneDay Tshirt contest. I decided to go with something a bit thifferent than a picture of some person with a white cane and a bunch of legalese

    Stay tuned to this thread and repost and favorite for the most fun.

    Who, among the sightlings can tell me the names of the #A11yDragons? If You’re blind and a screen reader user, just sit back and enjoy the funn by watching this thread.

    Destiny is seated at a desk, facing a computer screen, with her back to the viewer. She is wearing a blue cloak or robe and has blue hair or a blue head covering that matches the cloak. Surrounding her are five colorful dragons: - Talor, the green dragon, positioned to her left, is relaxed and playful, likely to find Destiny an acceptable playmate and would enjoy playing video games with her. Talor might give up if muzzled. - Brittany, the pink dragon, next to Talor, is friendly and affectionate, likely to cuddle Destiny while singing and would be the best caregiver if Destiny were sick. Brittany is also the most likely to sing "Mary Had A Little Lamb" or "Little Bunny Foo Foo." - Evan, the purple dragon, to the far left, is calm and thoughtful, making him the best choice for a therapist and likely to entertain Destiny's alternative tastes. Evan would hum a song if muzzled and is most likely to sing "Jesus Loves Me" or "The More We Get Together." - Sarah, the blue dragon, to her right, is focused and attentive, making her the most capable of carrying a tune and the best communicator for Destiny if she were unable. Sarah is likely to sing "Shake It Off." - Skylar, the red dragon, to the far right, is intense and ambitious, likely to lead a sing-along and might try to muzzle another dragon. Skylar would persist in singing even if muzzled and is most likely to sing "Crocodile Rock." The overall theme emphasizes that accessibility is for everyone, with each dragon contributing to a supportive and inclusive environment.
