158/365

Had to get a 150 bus today and it was so fucking late.

When it finally turned up I was glad I wasn't using my cane because it was zooming along and looked so much like it had no intention of stopping. And I know how late it is.

So I honestly think if I'd tried to flag it down while looking blind, it might have tried to drive past me to make up time. But in abled drag, I actually appear to be what I always am anyway: someone who'll know if the bus doesn't stop for her.

I am totally unsurprised,

but nonetheless outraged and furious.

Grrr.

that "the blindie won't see me" shit has to stop. I hope more people will get cameras and some comeuppance will happen.

I'm meeting with Stagecoach on Friday, so maybe something good will come of that.

Good luck!

That's certainly a terrible realization to have hit when they're already going to be terrible.

Grumble that you had to look sighted for them to stop.

[cosmolinguist]

Well I mean I don't know for sure, of course. I could just be being overly cynical and suspicious. But it seems like the evidence fits this hypothesis sometimes...

[silveradept]

I trust your perception of matters more than mine, so if that's what seems to fit the evidence, that's probably what is going on.

ARGH.

god, how frustrating.
