Happy disability pride, lovies. I joke about being too tired for this month bc, well, aren’t we all? But I do love sharing this space with people who *get it*
Being disabled is a versatile, challenging, occasionally beautiful and often painful experience. Proud to be seen.

Is there a thread of disabled small business owners/artists/etc with holiday sales? And if not can we make one?

Culturally, I identify as #Disabled. This initiative from @PBSAmerMasters is more than a series. It will share our history. We need this because our history is rarely, if ever, taught in schools. These stories will reframe what #Disability means to so many people. #TwoThumbsUp
"The [VIA] Initiative aims to expand @PBSAmerMasters ‘ commitment to stories and creatives within the larger #disability community, launching with a new series, Renegades, alongside a talent incubator and expanded accessibility features for programming distributed by the series."

I’m so pumped up to see my community and their ingenious demonstration drawing attention to the #LoveTax no one should have to face the decision of choosing between the rights of marriage or their survival. End the policies that keep us in poverty. #EqualityNow

"We are gathered together to create radical change," @thesteveway says we are forced to play by a different set of rules and that ends right now.

The fight for marriage equality isn't over according to disability advocates. Disabled people who rely on programs like SSI face steep penalties if they choose to tie the knot. I wrote about it @19thnews. 19thnews.org/2023/09/disabil…

Hi there! As many of you know, I don't like being PERCEIVED, but this month is Spinal Muscular Atrophy awareness month, and I really think it's important to educate people on this disease. So, join me for a little thread on how it impacts the varying aspects of my life!

#DisabilityTwitter please retweet this. It’s wrong for @sonomafair to allow this show to happen. Is there no better way for these #LittlePeople to earn an income rather than doing something that causes harm to their community and the rest of us?
The @sonomafair would rather dehumanize and use disabled people for entertainment purposes rather than show us dignity & respect! This is 2023 in wine country. Disgusting!
