seriously. my boyfriend was once kicked from a server for being "ableist to systems" (he is a diagnosed system by the way. and so am i.) because he said that people with typing quirks need to translate them because he is BLIND. he relies on a screen reader and could not participate because he is BLIND. and these people told him he is ABLEIST because they "cant type without their quirks" and that their alters "feel PHYSICAL PAIN" when they dont use their typing quirk. they expected him to ask for a translation for every single message HIMSELF from a third party translator instead of simply translating their stupid shit themselves. peoples stupidity and tone deafness amazes me sometimes. imagine calling a blind man ableist because you want to type like a homestuck character.

Genuine question though.. how do people with typing quirks work on school assignments? My brain may be malfunctioning.

it's also extremely hard to read for screen readers sad for example, "h3110" reads out loud as "h three one one zero".

PLEASE ADD A TRANSLATION BEFORE OR AFTER !!!

edit: before yall attack me for this, i occasionally use a screen reader myself - note that i am not blind nor visually impaired; my brain is just sometimes foggy and sometimes i need words to be read in order to understand them. i have trouble reading the typing with numbers without even using a screen reader. it is absolute hell for screen readers to read your typing quirks because every single number is read out loud. basic messages and even words are extremely difficult to be read. so at the very least please for the love of god add a translation either before or after the translation. if you can, please just don't use typing quirks at all. please. and if you can't help it, at the very least add a translation with no numbers, symbols, emojis, etc. please think about people who use and rely on screen readers. if you don't think about them, don't call yourself an ally to disabled people.

@KENNAKILLZ: fr I still have no idea why people do it? Like I can understand all caps or all lowercase maybe even double letters or using another letter in stead of another but like.... Numbers????

Isn't that significantly harder to do??? You'd have to switch keyboard a mega fuck ton? Like I know for me I do a lot of dashes/underscores to end sentences but that's like all at once- imagine having to type an entire essay switching back and forth?? I refuse to believe that's something that happens naturally.

I can't help but to think about how disrespectful it would be to type out someone's name that you don't know in a heavy typing quirk- like bro if I had an ethnic name and someone pulled up and made it into binary code, I think I'd go batshit

Definitely agree! Travis has a small typing quirk but always gives translations :3

Edit: Oh yeah and Crash has a heavier typing quirk but translations will always be there!
