really tired of conversations about how we need to get people to spend more time offline that don't acknowledge that one of the reasons people ARE online is their access needs aren't being met in physical spaces. This is especially true for queer people and disabled people.

If you ever want to read a paper for free and can't find it otherwise, email the lead author and politely ask for a copy. You will not be bothering the person. You will in fact make their whole entire day. I have had scientists get so excited I asked they sent me everything they ever published.

Itβs funny if you call PayPal or visa lines and bring this up asking why they claim βadult illustrationsβ is against their regulations but betting on the death of kids is totally fine. They donβt have an answer.
