So I'm watching both parts of "The Menagerie" from Star Trek for an upcoming presentation on Star Trek and disability. I realized that the ending with Vina and Pike being on Telos IV and the illusions used to allow them to be able-bodied people again both is and isn't ableist.
I've read pieces written by people who became disabled later in life and do want to return to the life they had before. Both Vina and Pike fall into that category.
Having a disability doesn't mean you have to like it. Granted, you do have to live with it. But.... it still can be seen as an ableist message of people who aren't disabled are happier. I'm going to have to work that in at the end, especially since it works well for both examples. The other episode is "Is There in Truth No Beauty?" where a blind woman works very hard to pass as sighted.
Since I couldn't find a version that didn't require you to go to Instagram - here's the Critical Role cast seeing their Daggerheart character's minis for the first time! (Source)
Also known as tembadau, this species lives in the tropical forests and grasslands of Southeast Asia. The individual shown here is female; males are a much darker brown. Though they are endangered in the wild, they have also been domesticated, and are used for meat across Southeast Asia. The bull featured on Indonesia’s national emblem is actually a banteng!
