"April is the cruelest month....."
...too frazzled and exhausted for posting anything particularly eloquent or coherent at the moment, much to my chagrin.

Autism 'Awareness' Month begins today.

Be(a)ware.

First Post of 2008
Nothing really interesting to say at the moment, but I had some interesting links I wanted to share.

Creature Discomforts- a series of ads about physical disabilities produced by Leonard Cheshire Disability and the creators of Wallace and Gromit. All of the claymation Aardman animals are voice-acted by real people talking about life with their disabilities and the obstacles they face because of inaccessibility and stigma.

D-PAN- music videos beautifully re-interpreted in ASL by deaf performers. I've kinda been perseverating on their version of "Waiting on the World to Change" and watching it over and over. :-)

the seam of skin and scales- Poem by Little Light. Very powerful and moving, regardless of whether you're cis- or transsexual.

Happy New Year, everyone!

Current Mood: thoughtful
Current Music: John Mayer- "Waiting on the World to Change"

Thanks to a poster at [info]no_pity, I've been made aware of this lovely short film called "Talk". Stuff like this really needs more exposure.

Watch it here:
