Great work Reubo! Love it 😊

Great Reuben! Thankyou for sharing

Great insight into people with a neurological disorder, appreciate the broad perspectives

Very informative video

Thanks for sharing! I have a degenerative neurological condition, and I really wish someone had told me at the beginning "However much you hate your current level of functionality, in the future, you're going to wish you could get back to it, so make the most of it."

this is so beautifull, i loved waching it so much. and the thouhgt of carting for the disabled even back then is heart warming. i love the tought that you took the time to pauze at this toppic. looking out for more. you have an beautifull voice.

Well done mate!

A fantastic organised and informative video! Glad to see some new content from the Capable Disabled ☺

So wonderful to see you back up and running this channel ❤

As an archaeology student i say you did a great job :)

I'm autistic, and it's sad how people back then were more progressive towards disabled than people nowadays. Eugenics didn't even become a big thing until the 19th century. Society has become more discriminatory despite our otherwise evolved minds, technological advancements and increased scientific understanding. A lot of the advanced technology was made by disabled people, despite society trying to tell us that being anything other than neurotypical is bad and that disabled people could never be happy, disregarding that society would not be as advanced without us. Beethoven, Stephen Hawking, Franklin Roosevelt, Albert Einstein, Elon Musk, Helen Keller, Marla Runyan, Satoshi Tajiri, Temple Grandin, Stevie Wonder, Bram Cohen, Bill Gates, Dan Aykroyd, Anthony Hopkins, Robin Williams, etc. are all greatly successful people despite, or even because of their disabilities. Eugenicism would actually be quite detrimental to society as these people had faced significant difficulties, and in trying to overcome them or turn their challenges into advantages, have made great contributions to the world. It's more productive to focus on what a person can do and build on that instead of dwelling on what they can't. Yet, society paints a bleak picture for disabled life, saying that you can never live a happy life, that you're a burden to those around you, and, at worst, you're better off dead, and at the same time they hardly do anything to improve the lives of disabled people. You ask for simple accommodations? Consider yourself fired despite you being fully qualified. We'll blissfully ignore you saying you want to be talked to like a regular person. Oh, and we'll also assume you're unempathetic while being unaware of the irony of said assumption. Wow, that was an entire tangent. Sorry, but the way that modern society handles disability genuinely irks me, especially realizing how far back we've stumbled. As our scientific understanding of disability advantages, it makes you wonder if neurotypical exists by definition. For example, plenty of autistic people have stellar memory and attention to detail, and you could argue that so-called normal people are comparatively disabled in that regard. Another big thing is that, being neurotypical, you don't feel a drive to compensate for your shortcomings, or turn your shortcomings into benefits because you don't have them or aren't aware of them to begin with.

Thanks for the feedback, you did great! 👍💕

Well done Reubs, huge!!!!

Just donated. Go for it Ruben! Paul Jordaans, the Netherlands

This presentation was good. I was able to understand you clearly while I was driving and the examples you selected were interesting. Your example of the woman with scoliosis was quite interesting to me, having family with it today and understanding their struggles.

Thank you for this amazing video. I have learned so much from your work here and have already ordered a copy of Disability in Antiquity. I can’t wait to learn more about this very interesting and important subject.

This was brilliant!

I need the next episode please! 🥰

Good research and very well presented, thanks. Much needed documentary of this subject. Looking forward to the next part. 🙏

Well done Reuben. You summed it up perfectly.

Great info! I'd be really interested in hearing more about your personal experience. Did you notice that you felt different after taking any of these? Did you get any significant blood test results?

You're very brave Reuben, and thanks for sharing your story.

Hey Reuben. Listening to your story I now understand your diagnosis. Great that you step up to be independent. And you are a good poker player. Meeting you at the poker games at gosford with my daughter lily. Hope to see you at the tables again. Cheers vee
