Secondary and for reference!

A few ideas:

Braille and large print signs, maybe even tactile print someone who reads print could touch

Good lighting

Lighting under stairs/steps or high contrast steps if they exist at all

Elevators that talk, have tactile buttons rather than touch screen, and Braille labels

Tactile maps of the campus

Detailed maps and explanations of the communal bathroom situation, such as where are the sinks in relation to the stalls, how do the sinks work, where is the soap and how is it dispensed, how and where do you try your hands?

Buttons that open doors, maybe even doors that slide open and shut from the side instead of out or in

Hand rails on the walls similar to ones in hospitals, perhaps with lights under them?

Hey artists, C. Spike Trotman, founder of Iron Circus Comics, just posted an invaluable thread on depicting different types of black hair. I’d do the thing where you screencap the whole thread and post it but it’s just too long (which is great because it’s a whole lot of useful information!) Give her a follow while you’re there.

look at her she's so cute and happy i love this photo

You can learn how to make them here, but this video is in Japanese. If you have basic sewing knowledge, you should be able to get it.

There is no pattern, only a cutting guide. 2 meters of fabric is able to do it perfectly with no fabric waste whatsoever.

Perfect for people who always feel like their clothes never fit! If you are concerned about the size, here are the pants on me (5', 90lbs) and my husband (6'1, don't know but he looks like fanart of Laios).

if you think you are bigger than my husband, all you have to do is scale the rectangles up so this measurement is 1/4 of your waist measurement.

But don't worry if it isn't perfect.

You can wear them as regular pants, or over kimono.

I want you to make these pants. Make monpe and experience the joys of adjustable clothing that will stay with you for years. Experience the joy of sewing something you know will fit and be well-made and usable, with no precise measurements besides hemming them to your height. Put on these pants and feel superior because you made something that the store could never give you.

ASL has many signs inspired by (and/or taken directly from) Plains Indian Sign Language/Hand Talk Except that for a long time PISL was forbidden for Native Americans to use so they were forced to use ASL

Most jumping spider content I see is focused around Phidippus, which is a shame because Salticidae (the family of jumping spiders) is one of the most diverse families of spiders. This is just going to be some photos of different species or genera of Salticidae I find interesting.

The scientific name of this species is Chrysilla volupe, but it's also known as the rainbow jumping spider, because the males are covered in colorful, iridescent patterns that include shades of red, pink, purple, blue, green, and gold.

Above: the male form of Chrysilla volupe

These may be the world's most flamboyant spiders.

Above: Chrysilla volupe males

Despite its eye-catching appearance, Chrysilla volupe is regarded as a rare species, and it's often very difficult to find.

The male form of Chrysilla volupe was first described by scientists in 1879, but very few of these spiders were documented in the years that followed, leading some researchers to believe that the species may have gone extinct.

Above: another male of the same species

The female form wasn't even identified until 139 years later, when several female specimens were finally discovered in the Wayanad Wildlife Sanctuary in Kerala, India. That discovery was made back in 2018.

Above: the female form of Chrysilla volupe

The females also have iridescent patterns, but their colors are much more subdued. Their heads are decorated with patches of red and grayish-blue setae; the spider's abdomen is also covered in shimmering flecks of blue, gold, pink, and purple. Unlike the males, the females do not have colorful patterns on their legs.

Above: a lateral view of the male

Like most jumping spiders, this species is quite small -- the males have a maximum length of just 5.4mm (that measurement includes their outstretched legs) and the females are even smaller, measuring just 2.6mm long, which is roughly the size of a flea.

Above: Chrysilla volupe standing on a lizard's head

Chrysilla volupe has been documented at sites throughout India, Nepal, Bhutan, and Sri Lanka.

Above: a rainbow jumping spider with a dewdrop on his head

I wrote a post about this species a few years ago, but it recently occurred to me that some of the info in that original post may have been misleading or inaccurate (accidentally, of course) so I decided to just go back and rewrite the whole thing.

I also added more info, sources, and photos.

OP isn't wrong, exactly (saying this for everyone else reading, not at you, OP) and the pasted tags are excellent & about a real issue, but actually further from the thesis of the video.

That thesis boils down to fiction that creates religions, like fantasy novels or RPGs, is very prone to only really depicting the religion's myths and sacred texts. The creation stories, the pantheon melodramas, that kind of thing. Adjacent to this is a big focus on belief. Both of these, ReligionForBreakfast (RFB) suggests, are due at least in part to (unexamined or deliberate) Christocentrism.

The thing that's missing, that RFB proposes as what he thinks would make a big difference and be good to see in fictional worlds, is action. ("Ritual", for certain definitions of the word.) What do followers of a religion, or people within that religion's culture, actually do? How does it appear in daily life, in art and architecture, customs and food, etc.? And not just the Official Approved actions or activities, either.
