For Australian folk : petition to end partner income tests for government support so disabled people can actually live with their partners.

Yes it probably won't go anywhere, but hopefully starts some discussion about the problems

Listen, I was shopping for N95 masks and @originalshena2.bsky.social recommended Bona Fide Masks cuz they're having a sale, but I forgot to use the discount code when I checked out.

I e-mailed, explained the situation and asked if I could have the discount anyway... (1/2)

Hi, ASL interpreter of 30 yrs & a person w/ Deaf family here.

In response to the anti-ASL horseshit going around:

ASL and English are not the same language.

ASL has no written form.

Reading English subs is not = to seeing ASL & many Deaf ppl need sign to fully understand info.

Trying to actually time myself doing tasks to see how long they actually take vs how long adhd tells me they will be take.

So far, it's been four minutes out of the ten minutes I predicted it would take me to pack my things up from hotel room and still sitting on couch...

Hello! I miss Twitter and enough ppl are mentioning that bluesky is actually good now that I thought I should try? So far I hate it bc there seems to be a really long lag between when you follow people and when it shows up??? Like over five minutes??? Apart from that yay friends are here!
