Alright Nintendo, looks like you've got a lot of the nuances of wheelchair movement down while keeping things fun and gamified!
So just one question... Mario & Sonic at the Paralympic Games... When?

I’m planning to fly next week within the U.S. My last trip out of my local airport was horrible—TSA did an extremely invasive pat down of me in full view of other passengers and the agent yelled at me for not understanding her instructions and for collapsing. I am an ambulatory #Wheelchair user and I am #Autistic with an anxiety disorder. Does anyone have advice about TSA and how to help things go more smoothly? #Disability #Disabled #ActuallyAutistic @actuallyautistic
We've had an email about a custom #wheelchair fabrication project from someone in #Devon, UK.
> I'm looking for 2 things. 1, a person/group who can build me a cheap fullsize working model of the pdf design seating and simple framework for attaching it to wheels, and 2, a person/group who can work with me on figuring out an alternative propulsion system and powered wheels, once I've got the step 1 working model.
Can you help? Drop us your email and will cc info.

PSA: These hub motor axle screws in electric wheelchairs tend to come loose overtime and could be dangerous if it falls off. Use loctite threadlocker to tighten these screws permanently or semi-permanently.
Hi dear #OpenStreetMap -community! I made a #tagging #proposal to tag grab rails (aka grab bars, handrails, support brackets) in #wheelchair #accessible toilets and I'm searching feedback.
I'd appreciate your feedback: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposal:Grab_rails

@PeterCxy @lispi314 personally, I think such #AntiConsumer & #AntiRepairDesign should be outlawed, espechally with #medical #devices like a #wheelchair.
- There's no "legitimate reason" why they could not stick with an #XLR-style connector. It's just a big ass DC cable that needs to be protected against user error and electric shock but it's not like some industrial machine that has to be safe in an explosive atmosphere where it gets constantly splashed with acid and contaminants...
At this point I'm convinced manufacturers only do that because they know most wheelchair users are not capable of #DIY'ing something better or afford to hire someone to do it for them!
Comfy.SocialTᴀᴋᴀɴᴀsʜɪ Hᴏʀᴏ (@PeterCxy)ffs I now think most North American wheelchair vendors are just a bunch of money grabs. This replacement one I got from Air Canada (after they broke mine) is made, low and behold, in the same literal city in China as my old ones, yet the price is about 5x and the controller is shit. Like literally it takes 500ms or more for the wheelchair to do anything after I move the joystick.
And guess what, it has an absolutely proprietary charging port and they sell their chargers for a completely ridiculous price. My old wheelchair uses the XLR port (yes, the audio one, weird, but it's kind of a standard in wheelchairs and scooters), so I was able to just make my own XT60 - XLR converter and charge it from PD using a smart battery charger from ISDT. Now? If I want to do the same shit, I will have to destroy my official charger, or I'll need to shell out over $60 to buy a backup one.
A question for #wheelchair users and/or #disabled folks: do you ever just dream of your feet touching the floor or even doing trivial things like going to the bathroom or transferring in and out of bed? My grief regarding things that I can’t do plays over and over again in my head. Anyone?

And the thing is, our cultural understanding of #disability is ridiculously narrow: I need the grab bars in a public toilet yet have had people express anger towards me for using a space that has a #wheelchair sign on it.
To me, the sign is a *symbol* for 'disability', not a prescriptive limitation for one specific type of disability.

Kann ich aus meiner Bubble #Rollsthulfahrende erreichen, die in der #Schweiz #geocachen?
Hätte viellecht jemand von ihnen Interesse zum Testen, ob diese Dose für Rollstuhlfahrende erreichbar ist:

Gerne #boost.

A story about #disability discrimination and #trains:
In November, me and @cassolotl made a train journey, as we often do. We were both using wheelchairs, so we booked passenger assistance in advance (as is recommended). We were told the #wheelchair spaces on our trains had been reserved for us.
