"Jeux paralympiques 2024. Pourquoi les sourds ne participent-ils pas aux Jeux de Paris ?"

Cet article (payant) est un gros morceau de validisme. Il est nul ! Ouest-France ose faire un article parlant des personnes sourdes sans, apparemment, en interroger une seule.

Exemple : Sébastien Messager qui dit : « La barrière de la langue est essentielle. Moi, ça ne me dérangerait pas qu’il y ait deux ou trois catégories sourdes aux Paralympiques. Mais qu’est-ce qui va se passer ? Étant donné que personne ne parle le langage des signes, les sourds vont être dans leur bulle, à l’intérieur d’une bulle. Ils vont être tout seuls. »

On dit "langue des signes", déjà ! C'est une langue avec une culture, hé ouais !

Et tu connais l'accessibilité, en fait ???

On en a rien à faire de ton avis, mon gars ! On veut celui des personnes concernées !

This morning on the tram:

A little old lady in a traditional Transylvanian dress (skirts and petticoats, blouse, head scarf, etc.) was sitting on the tram, completely absorbed in a book.

The book was an erotic thriller titled "In the bed of the mafia"

Go little old lady

This cutie saw me taking a photo, and thought I must be getting ready to pet him

Our Lady of Sitting is once more without a crest.

And a good morning grunt to you too! 😂

(Turn up volume for maximum gruntage.)

Call me a child of the seventies, but I love a good mustard-colored thigh-high.

Buds of Clematis virginiana, which Wikipedia tells me is known as:
"devil's darning needles, devil's hair, love vine, traveller's joy, virgin's bower, Virginia virgin's bower, wild hops, and woodbine"

Whew! That's a lot of baggage for a delicate vine with foamy sprays of little white flowers.

These grow wild everywhere around here and are now bursting into bloom. The vines grow up into trees and shrubs and spread a layer of white on top, like snow.

I recently shipped four of my brodalisque paintings to the Bradbury Art Museum! You can see my dudes in the upcoming Contemporary Classic exhibition!

The little goldfinch here seems to be breaking away into the scrub and sky while in fact e is just stretching eir wings for balance while turning around on the stem to reach the seeds on the other side.

This is really important and I don't think it's widely enough known: kids with dyslexia, ADHD, autism or other differences can thrive when they understand how their brain works https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/neurodivergent-kids-flourish-when-theyre-taught-how-their-brains-work/
