@hormeze ppl keep addressing this from a disability perspective, which like, isn't surprising, but it's so weird that's salient to them "just because they're conjoined, does not mean that they cannot do activities that their peers are doing" sure but what CAN they do that others CAN'T!?
@hormeze oh this vid is good! more sense-sharing also > Krista and Tatiana Hogan share the senses of touch and taste and even control one another’s limbs. Tatiana can see out of both of Krista’s eyes, while Krista can only see out of one of Tatiana’s. !!?! cbc.ca/player/play/10…

@hormeze ah the reason that the videos keep emphasizing the disability etc stuff is that that's the mom's angle. makes sense. I'm sure she does get lots of flak for it. > It's to make sure my kids don't grow up in a world where looking different is wrong. cbc.ca/cbcdocspov/fea…
@hormeze "we're normal, look at us doing normal things" ...is just not a thing I care about. but it is for lots of people. I'm just like "what's your deal? what can we learn from each other, how can we interface?" ...needs compatibility but not sameness
