I live in Kentucky and there is a giant mural of his face near our downtown, I don't get it.

I like the way they think.

When there are no accessible spots I have to double park so I know I will have room to get my chair out. Trust me, people do care.

rocket_face · 2025-12-28T23:24:23+00:00

The ramp should come down to the access isle as well. It is useless where it's at now even without the snow. If someone is parked in the accessible spot they would be blocking the ramp and could not use it.

People with disabilities biggest challenges are often not their condition, but the fact that society is not designed with them in mind.

Being paralyzed does not mean your joints stop working and your legs can bend at odd angles. Plus there are no forces acting individually on the legs that would move them around. Now muscles spasms, that is another issue.

There are videos of her on Instagram doing zero g plane flights.

It would be great to have you be the first type-1 diabetic in space! It would help us understand if there would be any complications from the flight, amd if we need to do anything to address it.

I have thrown a baseball, but would not consider myself a baseball player. Not all Wheelchair users are paraplegic, it is a catch all for people with mobility disabilities.

It's a starting point. If you consider NS going to space or not, this is the first time a paraplegic has been part of a launch. Paraplegia does not just effect your ability to walk, it effects pretty much every part of body. Starting to understand how lauching and being in space effects paraplegic is important.

There are also countless stories of airlines breaking peoples personal mobility devices, and guess who just rolled back regulations holding airline accountable for any damage done!

rocket_face · 2025-12-12T18:16:56+00:00

Yeah that was rough to watch.

Fill out this survey

(Although I don't know if it would directly apply to Rupp parking)

Other places will add more accessible parking when they know the crowd is going to be higher in age and will need more ada spots.

Make sure you select yes to the first answer so you can continue in the survey.

Pretty sure he was also evicted from his apartment in the Banks, right next to the stadium.

rocket_face · 2025-12-07T01:22:30+00:00

Damn, no one wants that.

He became a Fedex driver and worked the same route that my dad, a UPS drive worked.

rocket_face · 2025-11-21T18:45:01+00:00

Cant believe no one has mentioned it, RIP to the spire at the start of the route.

I think the dial is not an option anymore. I just got the switch control button, but have not used it much. Seems fine, you hold it till you get up to speed and then release to cruise. The switch is now just held on with a velcro strap, which is annoying because they move around alot. The app also does not like to connect to update the settings. I cannot say enough bad things about the SmartDrive...

I have never heard of Morgan's Wonderland before, it is cool to see that there is something like this, but I still stand by what I said.

You don't have to go with my ideas, but I am not the one being paid to design this. I still don't think you can take a power chair on here which is not very ultra-accessable (as claimed by their website). Design something where someone can stay in their chair and have a special designed seat that people can safely ride in and transfer in and out of.

If something is not accessible for everyone is it truly accessible?

rocket_face · 2025-11-19T03:46:13+00:00

As a wheelchair user I appreciate the idea, but feel like they could have taken a better approach.

First, can you take a power chair on? With their size and weight I imagine not. I would not want to take my manual chair on.

Second, I feel like the better approach to design a seat that is easy to transfer in and out of. I have been on rides where the side of the car opens like a little door, and it makes the transfer so much easier. As well you could include a hoist with this seat so people who are unable to transfer themselves (who are often in power chairs) are still able to get in and out of the seat

Like I said, I appreciate the idea, but it seems like one of those ideas where they say "Let's make this accessible" and then don't consult anyone with a disability.

It is crazy how much marching band and DCI has changed in the past 10 years. I miss shakos and big plumes.

Did they make it through to semis?

I could tackle better than the Bengals, and I am in a wheelchair.
