By the time Sue Shusterman turns away from the bench at the overlook and back toward the trailhead, she knows the paddleboarders are out in force 300 yards away on the gleaming blue surface of Chatfield Reservoir.
She knows the high runoff waters have flooded the roots of Chatfield’s willows and cottonwoods, and that the first spring-green layers of the foothills rise to the west like soft fabric.
How she acquired these life-affirming memories is at first a mystery, since Shusterman is blind and is heading back toward the parking lot making her usual sweep of the path in front with her ever-present white cane.
But then a friendly voice emerges from the phone that Shusterman is pointing toward the path from her other hand.
A little to the left to stay on the paved path. Looks like there’s a trail all the way down to the beach, about 75 yards, if you wanted to go. I’ll just be here watching, let me know if you need anything.
The voice is from a live, trained human guide FaceTiming through Shusterman’s phone camera on the Aira ability-assist app. Sight-impaired people have been using Aira’s guides to make it easier to do anything from navigating an airport to filling out an online job form. Now, all 42 Colorado state parks like Chatfield are geofenced to allow any visitor to use Aira for free to stroll the trails with a helpful set of eyes.
The Aira guides seemingly effortlessly offer what a blind hiker either needs, or wants. If there’s a dangerous steep drop-off on the right, they warn. If the hiker would rather know if the sneezeweed is in bloom or the sailboats are luffing through a turn, Aira offers that instead.
For Shusterman, trying Aira as an outdoors adventure for the first time, the allure was simple: “Independence.”
“So she’s doing, I think, a phenomenal job of including the necessary safety things, but the perks of the scenery, too,” Shusterman said, as she paused during a conversation with an Aira guide based in Tulsa, Oklahoma. “She’s doing great.”
State accessibility officials recently announced the expansion of Aira to state parks grounds, after previously providing Aira free for other state-related functions such as navigating a government building or getting help on an online site or filling out forms. Colorado cannot control the cellphone signal, though, so parks officials encourage visitors to try Aira at a familiar or close-in park space before ranging farther afield with it. Popular parks like Staunton or Golden Gate contain pockets where signals are not strong.
For consumers buying access on their own, Aira costs about $50 for 30 minutes of assistance a month. Private employers and governments often buy package access to Aira and other accessibility apps for all employees to use. State accessibility coordinator Theresa Montano, who is blind and accompanied Shusterman on her Chatfield walk, said Amazon buys access so that sight-impaired shipping center employees can navigate steps to pack orders.
Montano uses Aira at her state job, saying the guides on the app can share her computer screen and help her get through an online task in 30 minutes that might take her four hours without help or through older accessibility tools.
Adding Aira for state-owned lands was wrapped into the overall $250,000 budget for free Aira use on state property and with state websites. The additional utility is an obvious plus, Montano said.
“This gives blind people the same opportunity to come and enjoy it by themselves or with their family if they want to, and be independent,” she said...
Shusterman walked away taking more from the big picture experience, rather than any particular scenic detail.
“For me, it was, you know what, I could go for a walk on this path, and I could feel completely safe, and I would enjoy a nice walk and get some exercise, in an unfamiliar area,” Shusterman said. “It’s definitely a real confidence boost for me.”

Mushroom Oasis March (Day 7 : Sleeping)
Ever since I played mushroom oasis, I've been coming back to the meadow scene for comfort again and again, and this event gave me the motivation to finally make an ambience/ sleeping aid!
Hope you all like it!!!

*Does a stupid gay little trot that pisses you off*
Bull khait give a series of elaborate performances in the presence of receptive mares. A full display involves the bull self-anointing by urinating erect onto their beards, chest, and legs, urinating on the ground and rolling in the resulting mud, scraping and scent marking the dirt with their hooves, tossing their manes, bellowing, digging out clumps of dirt and grass with their horns, and chasing the mares around with an exaggerated, bouncy little trot. These scent and visual aids help mares gauge a bull's vigor, health, and overall quality as a potential mate.
When rival bulls meet, they compete by performing these same displays directed at one another. This posturing can potentially go on for hours in alternating cycles of displaying, grazing, smelling each other, and trotting neck and neck. These challenging rituals allow for rivals to scope out each other's strength while simultaneously advertising to onlooking mares, and will often end without a fight if one is successfully intimidated by the other's indomitable swagger.
#This is partially a repeat of prev post I just really wanted a visual aid for the courtship trot#creatures#This is Pyliod btw

john and arthur are so interesting because the worst thing ever could and will happen between them like things that would destroy the most strongest friendships or family relationships but they HAVE to soldier on through them and repair what they're left with because they physically cannot be seperate from eachother and neither can they take a longer break from communicating with eachother

it's my personal belief that Gillion needs glasses while on land but doesn't realize his vision is even different from everyone else's.
in the water he sees great! it's what tritons are made to do! but above water things are blurry and he's nearsighted. tritons can survive on land, but it's not an ideal situation (as shown by the fact that Gillion sleeps in barrels and bathtubs). he assumes that's just how land creatures are because how would he know any better? this is just another challenge that he's willing to face.
so yeah, he's totally visually impaired. lots of fish and amphibians can't see well outside of water, and i'm choosing to believe that Gillion is the same way.
#jrwi#jrwi show#jrwi riptide#gillion tidestrider#somebody get this guy some goggles full of saltwater#anyways i'm disabled so im once more headcanoning jrwi characters as also being disabled#honestly a lot of people forget that visual impairments are a disability because glasses are a relatively accessible aid#like obviously not all cases of vision loss are that severe or disabling but still#i'm just over here putting some silly goggles on a fish man don't mind me

Here’s another edit I made last year of Olo’eyktan Neteyam. I make these because we’re never going to see him take these mantles.

4x01 // 1x06 // 3x01 // 4x09 // 6x08
Anyways thinking about all the times Rayla has been literally buried alive, but also how Callum did so metaphorically during her two years absence and after she returned.
He buried her memory, refusing to say her name out loud or think of her:
It was impossible to say her name out loud. Rayla. It still hurt. She was still gone, and Callum had no idea if she'd ever come back. Callum shook his head. He couldn't think about her. Not now.
--Reflections: Inheritance
And how after her return, he let his anger and confusion suppress his feelings of joy and relief that she was home and safe:
When she came back, I was so happy, but so mad at the same time. I wish I could just forgive her, but it, it, it's so hard.
When I-- When I... when I saw you standing there, I got flooded with so many feelings, I was so confused.
But avoiding his feelings didn't make the pain go away. The wound was still there, and now it was compounded with regret.
4x09 // 5x04 // 6x03
And while it seemed that Callum was going to succumb to despair, as Sol Regem did--
5x04 // 6x06
--he ultimately didn't lose hope, and found his one truth--
--his love for Rayla, which transcended any lingering anger and pain that was caused by her absence.
6x08 // 6x06
#the dragon prince#sol regem#callum#rayllum#parallels#multi#tdp analysis#mine#light and darkness motif#wound motif#so uh. here's a whole post that's technically a tag ramble. but with visual aids!#also remembering 3x06 when callum was confronted w avizandum's corpse#“it makes me sad and angry and... confused.” “of course it does. it's painful. how could you feel any different?” yeah. yeah#our poor boy and his big feelings#and we could also take this all as some very painful foreshadowing for season 7#but i'm gonna choose hope this post

Tim Drake feels like such a strange combination of popular and obscure at the same time and it is bizarre.
He had a solo series that ran for over a decade but has no current solo comic runs and is mostly unknown by the broader public. He has far fewer appearances in adaptations compared to other Robins but his past looks have also been co-opted by other Robins and are semi familiar because of that (just not as Tim outfits). He's on par with other main cast members in written fanworks and has several frequent fandom tropes but on tumblr the most popular Batman characters have twenty to thirty times more tag follows than him.
On a base level he'd probably just be lumped in as a more obscure character in a lot of spaces these days but at the same time there is so much available for him and my brain wants to gnaw on him like a squeaky toy.

Do you have any tips on drawing trolls? I keep trying but I feel like I always draw them too stiff?? Thanks!
- trolls r just little stretchy dolls made of shapes, they have big heads and big hands and feet.
- the BEST thing i can recommend is studying the movies and pay attention to shapes, limbs, and proportions (thats what i do)
- knowing their basics helps you exaggerate poses
