Starting "A Face for Picasso" by Ariel Henley today. It's a memoir about Ariel and her twin sister, Zan, growing up with Crouzon syndrome—a rare condition where the bones in the head fuse prematurely. They were the first twins known to survive it. #DisabilityReadathon

I joined the @DisabilityRead with Being Heumann and An Unkindness of Ghosts, and I have Year of the Tiger on standby since it showed up in my Easter basket. I love @geekygimp's youtubes with reading sprints! 3/

@DisabilityRead I started reading An Unkindness of Ghosts and now I don't want to put it down even to read a chapter from Judy's book! Worldbuilding FTW.

Happy world autism acceptance day/week/month! Many people know of autism's existence or know someone with autism, yet don't aim to accept it - as if it makes someone lesser to have autism I think not, so I'm glad to share my #ownvoices mc with autism #WorldAutismAcceptanceDay

I’m going to be reading All’s Well by Mona Awad for #DisabilityReadathon which starts in a few days. It’s an #OwnVoices book that covers chronic pain- something I also have experience with, living with chronic leg pain and also endometriosis.

“What is so harmful about seeing what's happened to John Fetterman is that he's actually experiencing what many disabled people experience every day when we ask for accommodations...which is an instant doubt of our competence" - @maria_m_town #AccessIsARight #CripTheVote

“The senses are actually genuinely wondrous in what they allow us to do,” explains @edyong209 in conversation with Alice Wong. “They turn these fairly abstract stimuli into these incredible, subjective experiences.” orionmagazine.org/article/ed…
