This is some lovely infographic design

Can we discuss the fact that the longer "DEIA" is spoken about the more people are ok just..not including the A? I get it was added after 2020 but, hot damn, y'all just out here saying accessibility isn't important.

The House could vote next week on drastic cuts to Medicaid that would gut critical programs that protect the civil rights and dignity of millions of Americans — including people with disabilities. Contact your member of Congress: No cuts to Medicaid.

Today's checkup went well! His lungs and heart sound good so we didn't xray. Sent a blood sample to make sure things look good internally, too. Going to do another follow up in a few months if things look good. Sekhmet's visit is Monday.

These people will have access to our social security numbers and every aspect of our lives from birth to current day.

This is potentially catastrophic for 1000 reasons. this will gut small businesses. I can’t afford to ship private. I will not be able to continue making/selling my art. I’ve been making a lot of calls since I’m also in danger of losing essential medical care. it’s tiring. but please, please call.

Any countries building Starlink into their telecom systems should be thinking twice right now.

If your union isn't doing this, maybe talk to your rep & suggest that they should.

This is an All Hands on Deck moment—one of many to come, I’m sure, but let’s focus here for the next 5 days:

Just an accessibility hack for ya!

I could really use some help. I'm not getting paid much for this week or the week before due to work canceling two days this week and four last week. If you can manage, anything helps including reposts. #transcrowdfund #mutualaid paypal.me/alexmint

Look I know it's a cliché, but call your fucking reps. They don't get scared unless they hear from an overwhelming number of us all the time. Call them every damn day. Tell them to fight the hell back and protect us from Musk and Trump. It matters and it makes a difference, right now. reps.fyi

If you’re in Long Covid research or treating Long Covid patients… you need to be wearing a mask. Your programs aren’t accessible if you aren’t taking the most basic and effective measures to stop the spread. Patients with Long Covid shouldn’t have to risk reinfection to get care.

Absolutely grinding away at digitizing patterns in preparation for our huge batch of prep! Included is the feline ultraslim footpaw and the revamp of the Legacy Wolf Slim Feet (and the EZ liner)! Anyone want to cover caffeine so I can try to get more done tonight? Thanks! ko-fi.com/foxfirefantasy

We're in dire need to keep raising money because of the expenses of keeping all of the eSIMs topped up. For the latest about our project: disabilityvisibilityproject.com/2025/01/29/c...

So I'm working on new knee braces!! Comment below your 2 faves! I can only afford to make 2 right now. I've been listening to people's feedback and hope to have a wider range of sizes. Tentative size guide below!

everyone is here, waiting for the photoshoot!! it turns out to be my biggest ceramics update yet 😶 I should have the preview ready for you tomorrow morning

#disability I told someone 3 weeks ago that their medication would maen the current administration would label them disabled. Would label LBGTQIA+ people disabled. Would eventually label anyone not cis white men disabled (ever look where hysteria came from?) This person has then yelled at me

Gang, at this point I’m too disillusioned to expect all of you to mask always (even though you should), but for the love of GOD, please at least mask at airports and on planes when you travel to events!!!

Please. Please. Please. If you are raw feeding your animals either swap to wet or if you must, cook from scratch! I have resources! Do Not Cook your commercial raw! You will lose the balanced diet and there is no way to rebalance it. Either return it or toss it. Cooking in a crockpot from

www.koin.com/news/portlan... Near the end there's a video of me reuniting with Sekhmet.💕🐾 This also explains why my bird flu cases are positive but not (yet) recorded with the state. The first 3 will be recorded tomorrow I've been told.

People fuck up, but Wild Coast Raw is literally killing cats and declining to take ANY responsibility for it. My COMPLETELY INDOOR cats ate batch 22660. They are still acting like the bird flu results were fake. My stud who does not eat raw was negative. This WILL kill cats. This is evil.

We are restoring merit by...hiring that lady who built a career out of coming 5th in a college swim meet.

Your regular reminder that §230 protects YOU, the person reading this post, from being sued for reposting things just as much as it protects "Big Tech" from things that still wouldn't be a viable cause of action because your problem is not with §230, it's with the first amendment

Reddit thread has link to the official federal comment submission!

Public comment is now open for passport gender marker changes. You can go here to go to each of the three proposed passport rules, and submit comment. My suggestion: be unique, argue for trans-inclusive policies, against the constitutionality of the changes, etc. www.reddit.com/r/Passports/...

THIS IS HUGE! For the FIRST time in history, scientists at Sanaria and Seattle Children's Research Institute's Center for Global Infectious Disease Research (CGIDR) have developed a GROUNDBREAKING malaria vaccine (PfSPZ-LARC2) designed to provide >90% protection with just ONE dose. 🧪🧵⬇️

Remember that the GOP and Trump repeatedly insisted that COVID numbers were due to testing. They do not want to test. They want you cogs dying while working.

For those of you who have noted that Substack is basically a Nazi Bar and you’re looking for a place to move your writing to, the info in this thread may be an option worth looking into.

Substack is going to keep on substacking unless writers move their newsletters elsewhere and we as readers stop reading people’s substack newsletters. We all have a part to play in taking this fucking platform down and making sure independent journalism stops being laundered through a nazi bar.

I hate to do this, but with two very ill kitties needing treatment at the same time, I have to ask for help. Likes, shares, etc. Olivia has not had more than a lick or two of food in a week and needs a feeding tube, and Amelia needs very expensive radiation treatment for a tumor. gofund.me/258d2699

Shoutout to @bibicosplays.bsky.social for her phenomenal compression gloves. I wouldn't be able to move my hands at all right now without them. They're a massive help during coldsnaps. This specific pair I've had for a bit over a year.

Delta, Southwest, American, United, and Jetblue are suing the Department of Transportation for...the right to smash more wheelchairs? How about y'all land some planes right side up and then we'll talk 💀 FFS. #RightsOnFlights link to PDF of case in this article: news.bloomberglaw.com/business-and...

This is what has been happening for decades: see “troubled teen industry” www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2yrWAhh/

Of course they know they’ll die. You know too. www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2yY6RNn/

New from 404 Media: a Musk ally has demanded administrative access to Notify.gov, a system that lets the government text the public. The access would give them large swathes of the publics' personal data too. A worker has resigned in protest rather than give access www.404media.co/musk-ally-de...
