Just a reminder that disabled people need rides to go grocery shopping, doctor’s offices, to the bar, to the cafe—not just to cast a ballot that impacts you.

And this is why disability inclusion is radical. Plain language and accessibility in education is the key.

No, it’s far more deep than that. I think escapism is just failing. People are disconnected from the tools designed to keep them distracted. Nothing feels real or worthwhile anymore it’s like watching loading screens and waiting for something to feel capturing again.
So what do people want from Disney? Every single movie seems to be struggling at the box office even if it is a high quality. Is it because of Disney+ or does the right-wing political aisle just hate Disney now?

Netflix raising my sub price from $19.99 to $22.99. A bit funny. I know pricing, so I know leaving room for an eventual boost to $24.99/mo when I see it 😂

Autistic and ADHD people will be like, “hmm, I’m not certain, but I think…” after they’ve done 10+ hours of research on the subject and know more about it than most experts.

Behind every great marketing campaign… There’s a person who gathered customer insight, tested stuff, failed, learned, and tried again smarter Overnight growth only exists in fairytales and Broetry

Being ADHD and/or autistic can come with delayed processing, meaning it can take us just a bit longer to process and react to information. To cope, some ADHD and/or autistic people develop an 'automatic yes' or 'automatic no' response in the face of processing delays

I see you’re living in a tent with your partner and your dog. Would you like to surrender your dog and sleep alone on a mat in a gymnasium? We’ll throw out all your belongings for free
When people reject offers of shelter, we should be able to enforce city laws. Last week, the plaintiffs in the lawsuit against the City agreed in court with this point. This was a huge step.

One of my best friends in the world is struggling with addiction, again. Do you know what their main problem is? The drugs themselves. Not prohibition, not a poisoned supply, not stigma, not a lack of treatment resources, simply the ongoing compulsion to use drugs. 1/

Asking me to estimate how long something will take is like asking me how many gumballs are in the jar, but I can’t see the jar.

Every results day I’m reminded that deaf students achieve a full grade lower than their hearing peers. This doesn’t tell us that deaf students are less academically able, it tells us that they’re continually let down by an inaccessible education system.

The most profound part of Barbie IMO was when she saw the “Miss Universe” billboard and said, “oh look the supreme court!” bc it did not occur to her that women who are beautiful and look “sexy” could not be simultaneously smart, respected, and incredibly accomplished.

The criteria for diagnosis for a neurodivergent condition are not the same as its symptoms or experiences. Diagnostic criteria are meant to help differentiate between conditions, not capture every possible experience of living with it

Bipolar & PTSD are not "inner demons” That’s archaic language that frames mental illness/trauma as being possessed by evil spirits We demonize brave women while they live and then saint them when they die Let’s honor Sinead by honoring our next inconvenient prophet in real time
why is everyone saying sinead "battled her own demons?" she was one of very few brave enough to battle real demons: child predators, those who protected them in God's name, homophobia, greed that kills..... she battled demons, yes- but they were us, not her.
