#it isnt even directly abt accessibility stuff this time but i asked my aunt for elbow length gloves so i can clean the fish tank

the “can you get me xyz accessibility tool please” “nah u dont need that i’ll just help you” type conversation is so frustrating to me

i appreciate that people want to help but i want to be able to do things even when you don’t feel like helping me. i want to be able to do things when you’re not around to help me. by refusing me accessibility aids, you are limiting me in a way i dont want or need to be limited, whether intentionally or not
