After President Biden’s speech last night, it seems like a lot of people are unhappy that they got the shoe, and it fits.

4/4 John told me once one reason to dress well to interview people is that for many, it is the one time they will ever be interviewed. "Crime victims, people who lost homes in a storm, little kids, passersby--they deserve to be treated like the Queen of England." Never forgot.

When blind people are not a part of decisions made about us, there is often vision-centered bias that continues to create obstacles for us. We are the organized blind movement to break down those obstacles.

A disturbing trend started on @tiktok aims to discredit Hellen Keller. Though her existence as a human isn’t being disputed, her accomplishments as a disabled person are being questioned. What are your thoughts? This article summarizes the fad.

Missouri needs to offer accessible voting options for voters with disabilities given the inaccessible paper ballot voting system. Other states have successfully done this, allowing access for voters with disabilities. @nicolergalloway @JasonKander #accessiblevoting

If you lose someone, you’re allowed to hurt. If you make a mistake, you’re allowed to feel regretful. You are allowed to feel whatever you need to feel. Positive thinking is a powerful tool for happiness, but it shouldn't be used to avoid dealing with emotions.

My dream was to study musical theater. I have the voice for it. But I was barred from dance classes and discouraged from acting classes because of my blindness. Let's not allow another blind actress be discouraged from her dream of maing it on Broadway. thLetUsPlayUs

We were never going to let our dog on the living room couch. No way. Never. Now, we spread out a blanket for her. Have to show her who is in charge, after all.
