Actually, my sister was sleeping next to me, so I wasn't able to talk. I also use TTS voices to communicate in my daily life; even though I don't have any speech disabilities, this has become normal for me. I use both my own voice and three different TTS voices depending on the context, which has actually become automatic for me by now. Additionally, I use typing as a communication tool. I often type messages and show them to people when I want to say something I don't want others to hear. So, you could say I use assistive communication methods—not because I actually need them, but because I like having them as options.

And About interactive toys, I don't have one yet, but I'm thinking of getting one. You know, since we're blind, we're way more into things that actually react to us, especially when they respond to what we do instead of just having some basic button-pressing mechanic. Honestly, both as a blind person and just as myself, I think I'm starting to get kind of addicted to these kinds of toys.

That’s cool that you use TTS voices for daily life. What are your other voices?
