From now on willl be referring to empathy theater initiatives as LARPing. 👍 If this article vibes with you maybe also think about how this applies to a11y empathy exercises and reviews by non-a11y feature users at your company?

Alba was amazing at making sure I felt confident, prepared, and supported to moderate our panel for Critical UX! +1 to giving it a try if you have a complex relationship to public speaking.

Amazing article, if you are working on inclusive product design I challenge you to think of examples of objects like this at your company. Who are your inclusive design efforts actually targeting?

Just watched Shang Chi last night and also so grateful to get movies streaming at home! Such a better experience for me with attention/sensory issues compared to the theater. Love that Marvel is putting out quality AD, especially fighting sequences for a movie like this!

I also watched Dune at home which I loved, it would have been so tough for me to watch and enjoy in the theater because of the pacing and intensity of the audio.

Today I'm thinking about how disabled art, beauty, contribution may look different or be on a different timeline than what our dominant tech industry culture asks for or expects, but has just as much or more value to building new worlds. How to open expectations? Should we?

Thank you @HmntyCntrd for hosting our "Beyond Accessibility" #CriticalUX panel yesterday! @jtknoxroxs @elizejackson spoke to my core around disabled erasure, honoring disabled innovation, making space for disabled people, joy and invention. What spoke to and what's next for you?

Yes! I hope designers everywhere are inspired to ask themselves this. Thank you to @albanvillamil @vcastillo630 @hmntycntrd for putting together this panel and raising this question!
Replying to @typothermya
"What would design look like if we center and celebrate disability?" — @LindsPlay This is the question is one we should all be asking, but adding on "in our product"?
