Disability Bias, damnit!
Seriously, what kind of cheap-o studio doesn’t put either subtitles or captions on their DVDs? It can’t be that expensive to add and if I have to turn my TV up to 60 to hear dialogue over the background music, well.
I still have no job. This terrifies me. I only have so much savings to rely on, especially now that I’ve bought all but one of my books. For one of my classes. For $290. (My checking debit daily limit is $300, which is why I only bought 6/7 books.) I haven’t been unemployed this long since I was a teenager and in high school. I just want to go to the grad office and get on my knees and beg: “Give me an assistantship! Please! I am poor and if you don’t I’ll be destitute and evicted!” but I suspect that will have the opposite effect. I also spend time glaring at my phone willing it to ring. That also seems to have the opposite effect.
