i know this is the piss on the poor website but its also something worse and way stranger because every time i give general advice that amounts to “regrettably, sometimes, the problem in a rocky relationship is you” people will pop up out of every crevice to be like “insane take, why are you telling battered wives and abused children its their fault”

Does any of the emotion of visual art actually come across through image ids? All of the ids I see are so objectively clinical, leaving out everything I love about visual art. Like describing an electric guitar solo as just existing. Is there a way to describe art subjectively? Perhaps through poetry or a journal entry? Are these things not desired among people who have low vision?

Unless you are the original artist, I don’t suggest adding things like poetry or journal entries. These may be more subjective and not align with the artist’s intent.

Image descriptions allow us to experience an image rather than hearing our screen-reader say ‘image’ without context. Image descriptions let blind people in on the art. Therefore, the image description often portrays the visual art in a way that may come across as objective.

To get around that, I still believe the best image description is one written by the artist who created the piece, as they know what needs to be communicated most. If they want to include supplemental material to convey mood, they can do so as long as it is included after the image description.

I’m going to tag @accessibleaesthetics here.

Image descriptions are meant allow blind people to experience images. They can also benefit people with visual processing disorders or allow for internet use during a migraine.

This means that image descriptions might come across as objective and clinical. One way around this is for the artist to write the description, as they know what they wanted to convey.

The poetry and journal entry you suggest could be posted as supplementary material as long as they don’t interfere with the image description. They should be included after the description, not before. This is extra material, not part of the description.

If anyone else has any thoughts, please share.

The problem isn't the over designed twinks or the silly horse girls or the goofy cookies it's the gambling. You guys know it's the gambling right? I need to you all to know the problem with gatcha games is that they're just normalizing gambling addictions to younger generations.

Irritates the hell out of me when people respond to a post or comment like, "everyone does this, it's not just [disorder/illness/neurotype], it's called being a person."

Yeah and everyone coughs once in a while but it doesn't mean someone with pneumonia doesn't cough?? It doesn't mean pneumonia doesn't cause coughing??

Everyone gets dizzy once in a while but it doesn't mean vertigo doesn't exist??

Just about every symptom or group-common trait is going to be experienced by people who don't belong to those groups or have that disorder. It's about the frequency and intensity with which that symptom or trait comes up.

Fandom spaces have GOT to stop finding out about concept art & saying they were supposed to have x or y. That’s not how concept art works, there isn’t a secret better show they decided to hide from you for no reason
