Disabled people have been right about almost everything that’s happened over the last five years. People don’t listen to us because they don’t think of us as real people. We’re invisible (at best) and completely disposable (at worse). We are the canaries - and we are trying to warn you. Listen.

The following is a recruitment letter for an IRB approved research project I'm doing on disabilities and masculinity, along with an alt-text summary. Please share with anyone you know who might be interested in participating. #academia #disability #masculinity #gender

So, where are the Blacks for Trump? A cabinet should represent and reflect its people. This collection resembles an exclusive country club.

Indeed. When they rounded up the Japanese Americans, myself and my family included, for internment during WWII out of fear over Japanese spies and saboteurs, two thirds of us were U.S. citizens. Don’t think it won’t happen again when they come for the ā€œundocumented.ā€

Oklahoma deserves leaders who build schools, not political careers. #oklaed #BetterThanOK

I don’t even want to think about how much of my own money I have spent on my Oklahoma classroom. *off to buy my own card stock*

A lot of the positions people like RFK jr. take (anti-vax, anti-pasteurization etc.) get described as ā€œcontroversial.ā€ They’re not. There is no controversy. This is long-settled science. The correct term is ā€œstupid.ā€

Narrator: That’s not what they used to do.

A few years ago, while teaching at a small country school, I was listening to a podcast during my plan and came across this motto. It knocked me off my feet. I was teaching students who didn’t believe that college was a path. ā€œDon’t take choices away from future you.ā€

Anyone who thinks "America" needs "Jesus" has never read the Constitution or the Bible. The notion of a "Christian government" is as heretical as it is unconstitutional.

Blue sky feels amazing but also terrifying. It’s a blue dot heaven. But my state superintendent did just create a department of ā€œReligious Liberty and Patriotismā€. So it also may be the reason I lose my teaching certificate.

Be like Mark Hamill.

I saw someone say: This isn’t a cabinet. This is a junk drawer. And I legitimately snorted

To be fair, if Trump is limited to men who haven't sexually any assaulted women, he's only got Lindsey Graham, left.

having some streaming issues but i think i get the gist of it

America didn’t deserve them.

Did I pick my #PWHL team because of its logo? Yes. Did I also pick it because it looks like a quidditch team logo? Also yes. I’m so excited for this season! Let’s go ladies!

It feels like we've gone off to colonise a nice new planet!

The more I hear different silver bullet explanations as to how/why Trump got elected, the more I think we need to embrace what intersectional scholars and activists have LONG preached: Capitalism has ALWAYS been intertwined with racism, patriarchy, and other forms of oppression.

The problem with audiobooks is that, when the inevitable spicy scene shows up, you're just trying to do a spreadsheet while a narrator gently whispers in your ear about dicks.

I regret to inform you that I do sometimes judge a book by its cover.
