This felt too valuable not to share. Braille-labeled maps of washrooms to help people find and use facilities in the washroom. Everyone deserves to get in, do their business, wash their hands, and get out in peace and safety.

This seems valuable for all public spaces.

@cargot_robbie As a blind man pointed out a couple of days ago, he'd have to feel all around all the walls to locate the signs first, before being able to read any Braille on them.

@anne_twain @cargot_robbie not all people who could benefit from such signage are 100% blind. The contrast between the white wall and the black sign with white markings is pretty good, making it easier to find.

(this is also why the dots are in a contrast color, to make them easier to find)

@raboof @cargot_robbie And the 100% blind people just dont matter?

@anne_twain @raboof @cargot_robbie i don't think they meant it that way tbf.

Does make me wonder: what would be the solution to that? (Genuine question)

@thibaultmol @raboof @cargot_robbie I'd suggest that blind people would be best equipped to answer that.

@anne_twain

absolutely wild that you’d speak over multiple blind people *in this thread* and then make a comment like this

maybe shut the fuck up and listen instead

@anne_twain @thibaultmol @raboof @cargot_robbie You mean blind people like the woman in the video, who loves this signage?
