Disability Bluesky, are you out there? I'm looking for my disability community. I know that when we are together we do an incredible job of sharing information, resources, & even saving each other with medical care, housing, etc. Twitter was life-changing that way for me. Where ya'll at? 🤗❤️♿

The fact that we have been holding conferences since 2020 and almost nobody but Davos and anime cons have figured out how to do it right is a prime example of how denial creates terrible policy. A lot of these organizers are very smart! They could figure it out! But.

The Financial Times editorial board calls for a humanitarian ceasefire. This is significant. “Israel’s collective punishment of the 2.3mn people trapped in Gaza — almost half of them children — must stop.”
