New post: If you recognize me in public, don’t come over to talk about my work. It’s about boundaries, burnout, and remembering that even unpaid creative work is still work.

Wait, is this an actual thing that happens to you? I fully sympathize with this post, but I really didn't think that Linux accessibility, a topic so niche its only very recently started getting picked up by sighted people, would result in a bunch of presumably sighted people coming up and talking to you in public. Blind ones don't know you're sitting on a bench over there, and even if they heard you talk that voice could belong to anyone.
