I'm grateful for @disabilitylab.bsky.social's new venture, Disability Culture Currents, which explores the intersections of disability identity and culture through opinion, personal essay, and graphic storytelling.
Tonight, Iβm feeling so very seen by Robin Larisch's comic βJuiceless.β
Patting past me on the back for encouraging my cats to talk because on the many occasions when I can't find them in my apartment, they'll meow to tell me they're alive but don't want to get up from wherever they're chilling
Thank you for sharing!

βIt is completely inappropriate for Louisiana to try to export its own restrictive laws in this way.β
A federal judge in Louisiana is weighing whether to roll back telehealth access to mifepristone, of which people already facing barriers to care would bear the brunt, @alexmar.bsky.social writes.
We at @americanprogress.bsky.social are gathering stories from disabled voters about voting accessibility (particularly looking for folks from IN, MO, MN, RI, TX, UT, & WY). Please complete this Google form if you're interested in sharing your story:

Sunlight streaming through dense green forest canopy over a pathway. Logos for CAP and Justice Outside appear in the corner. Text reads: βThis is about more than a nice view. Itβs natural infrastructure for healthy communities. Everyone has a right to experience the benefits of nature.β
The new report from @americanprogress.bsky.social and Justice Outside, reveals the persistence of the nature gap in the U.S., where communities of color are 3x more likely than white communities to live in nature-deprived areas.

Hello! I am a trans journalist looking to speak with trans kids and parents of trans kids across the US who have been impacted by the clinic closures---please get in touch or share!
For a few hundred years, towns across New England have conducted Town Meeting Days via floor votes, which can be inaccessible to disabled people. This situation shows how accessibility and tradition can go head-to-head. My latest for @motherjones.com.

Explicitly capitalist media again shares a new piece that Long COVID is concerning, has no cure and again, embarrassingly, is doing better public health comms about this than most public health orgs. www.forbes.com/sites/omeraw...
Journalist Sara Murphy is working on a story about the impact of climate disasters on people with #LongCOVID, focusing on the American South. She would love to connect with people who had to manage the recent ice storms and extreme cold, or even previous disasters. Contact: hello@saramurphyphd.com.
I'm looking to hear some specific examples of how disabled Minnesotans have been harmed by federal Medicaid pause for reporting I'm doing at @motherjones.com . Please reach out to jmetraux@motherjones.com with any leads.
Yes! Iβll dm you my number if thatβs ok
Hi! Iβm a disability studies PhD student who has done research like this! Would be happy to help. I work mostly using phenomenology, so understanding how people experience phenomena (like, for example, being denied essential meds)
A concrete demonstration that this is about disenfranchising trans people-- their right to free movement and their right to vote-- not about gender at all.
βThere canβt be that many people with Long Covid, I never see themβ as though we donβt know post-infectious syndromes cause many patients to become housebound and bedbound, (the worst of whom can rarely or never post online) the same with previous post-infectious syndromes for millennia
I'm thrilled to announce a new report I wrote with @ksavin.bsky.social and @calliefreitag.bsky.social on the impact of DOGE/Trump 2.0 turmoil on Social Security disability programs.
As the title says, these programs have always been tough to navigate. But in the last year, they've gotten worse.
I uploaded the full version of the video that will be shared at the Symposium for Disability and Accessibility at Yale on April 10th. A short version will be played that day. I uploaded this in advance in case ppl wanted to watch and prepare questions to bring to the conference (10-10:30 am ET)
NEW, from me: I talked to Aliya Rahman, who was dragged out of Tuesday's State of the Union + arrested for... standing up.
Really.
Rahman, who is autistic and has disabilities, was a guest of Rep. Ilhan Omar + was previously brutally detained by ICE in Minneapolis. www.huffpost.com/entry/aliya-...
i really wish we'd stop it with the whole criminal record disclaimer thing, especially given how racist the criminal system is, and how easily POC can end up with a record for being in the wrong place at the wrong time
