I have spoken to rooms full of nondisabled people and heard this ripple of tense laughter. I have told my own story of flipping a car on black ice and people straight up told me they would just drive more carefully.

When an autistic person is sharing a special interest be mindful that growing up we were often shut down or made fun of for sharing & what you consider “playful teasing” can be taken as mean/hurtful especially if we feel confident/comfy enough to unmask & share something with you or our communities.

Not only can working from home make you happier, for many disabled people it allows them to remain in the workforce It gives them autonomy & independence. Flexibility to attend doctors appointments and care for their health It’s a crucial accommodation, and removing it will harm disabled lives

There's been some criticism of these protests from the left--saying that they lack a meaningful call-to-action and that they're just directionless marches. This isn't *entirely* unfair (I am a stern critic of anti-authoritarian movements that are unable/unwilling to seize power themselves). But...
