Used to see the clips of this movie passed around a few years ago, just saw it again and had the urge to re-open the search for a copy. It does have an IMDb page with very little on it, and here is the infamous clip, but to my knowledge nobody has found a full copy of the film.
I feel like a real copy exists somewhere in the back of an old video rental store in India and that's basically it. Still hopeful, since I've always wanted to watch the whole thing.
"But I live in Kentucky, not Washington, DC!"
So reddit, I (16f) was born blind in my left eye, my optical nerve is to small, it doesnt reach properly, my entire life the doctors told me to be careful, that I wouldnt drive big trucks or anything like that.
So basically I have no depth perception whatsoever, I cant catch, I cant throw, I can barely kick a soccer ball.
Well my mom wanted me to join sports, I told her no, theres no way I could do that without getting hurt or hurting someone else. She accepted it for grade nine, and ten, and eleven. I'm in grade twelve and shes been whining about me not doing sports.
I told her theres no way I'm doing it, with being blind in my left eye I can't see if someones coming from there, I cant play sports properly.
She got mad and started yelling that disabled people do all kinds of things all the time, that I'm able bodied and I'm just blind, I can see fine with my right eye and I need to stop using it as an excuse to not do things I dont want to. Well we got into a big heated argument about my sight and I said my eye affects my every day and I just stormed off.
Now shes mad saying that I'm giving half blind people a bad look and I told her shes crazy.
So reddit AITA?
Info: examples I run into at least five door frames a day, my school had to put tape at the edge of stairs so it wouldnt look flat and I'd stop falling down the stairs, they added this in grade nine after I fell down the stairs five times in the first month of school.
Edit to add: found notes from last talk with doc I'm only supposed to run when I'm around people or know the ground is flat, also thanks everyone it was nice hearing from others who were blind to, it seems weve collectively agreed my mom thinks eyes arent part of the body, and that my disability is real, not an excuse, but a reason, also thanks everyone :) sorry I couldnt respond to everyone
Info: I was reading more comments, someone asked what my doctor adviced when I was a child, ok for reference here's what was adviced by my doctor and ignored, I was supposed to not go up or down stairs unaccompanied till I was about ten, there were supposed to be baby gates on the stairs until I was five, both rules ignored and I nearly fell head first down the stairs at age three because of it. I was supposed to avoid cliffs and over hangs, but my mom took me to rocky trails and cliffs to go for fun family walks. I was meant to stay away from basically any unflat surface without a parent or guardian but my mom regular sent me off to play

Prepare for the bullshit storm. We're about to be labeled as the world's worst kind of human beings for doing DD. Poor poor criminal multimillionaires, you told us to pull ourselves by the bootstraps and now your toys are broken.
No amount of media manipulation will be able to hide your crimes. Trading is a tough game.
EDIT: This post got some traction and visibility, so I'll just leave a reminder: "DRS IS THE WAY"
Told him to use both and he’d probably find him a lot quicker.
I met a woman for an interview off of a Facebook babysitting group. She’s a single mother of a 20 month old toddler. She told me the job will consist of me sleeping at her home. I can watch TV, use the kitchen as I wish, and sleep (she even offered to buy me a blanket and pillow set to be comfortable enough to sleep there). The 20 month old will already be in bed when I arrive. All I would have to do is just keep an eye on the home, to make sure everyone is safe. She offered to pay $10/hr, for 8 hrs a day, 5 days a week. She told me she cannot afford to pay more than that as she already has a daytime sitter she pays $13/hr for. Is this fair? Should I accept this offer?
today a friend of mine parked my motorcycle 2 streets further from where it was as a prank to make me think that it was stolen. Do you guys know of a revenge prank for him, I was kinda thinking like removing his rear tire or something?
Witnesses said the encounter was within their 'eyeshot'
Hi all, I’m mostly a browser/lurker, but I’ve noticed a pattern. I use the Apollo app for Reddit and it shows you if accounts are very young. The New Zealand subreddits see a lot of antivax/“pro-freedom” trolls that come in to erode trust and consensus. Not all, but a lot of them are young accounts and will disappear after a month or two. With a little bit of checking, they’re easy to spot. They tend to say stuff like “Fauci lied and people died”, or similar things that are clearly right-wing talking points from other countries. They also tend to hang around in obscure non-NZ specific subreddits before commenting in NZ centric ones. Some use language that is clearly not NZ vernacular, or even occasionally give away hints in previous comments that they do not live in NZ. They know they are not going to flip the subs overnight, but that is not their intention: it is to sow seeds of doubt and distrust, push misinformation, and fracture reasonable discourse by claiming they deserve to be heard as well.
That is all. Thanks for reading.
