many social platforms favor direct video uploads over links that lead to other sites, and many people won't open a bsky URL, so if you're comfortable posting the video to other sites:

Settle a debate for me: which do you think will be more transformational as a society, the last 100 years (1925-2025) or the next 100 years (2025-2125)?

dating app profiles like"sometimes I'm introverted, other times I'm extroverted" what that describes is neither of those, it's just a description of the normal way of being those words were created to indicate a deviation from, people're so eager to be in categories they want both instead of neither

I contacted a university disability/accommodations office for my dyslexic husband to see if he could get any of these fabled student supports.

"IS HE PERMANENTLY AND IRREPARABLY UNABLE TO FUNCTION?" they inquired.

Upon learning he in fact functions sometimes, they said no to supports.
I find myself increasingly wondering how able bodied people appear to believe that being disabled is"easy."
Getting accommodations in school, uni and/or work: easy, a breeze, even!
Getting a doctor to write you a certificate supporting your needs: EASY!
Working from home: EASY!

Sitting at 53% now. I was able to at least get the electric bill taken care of so they won't disconnect. Now, focus is on the rent.

Thank you SO SO MUCH to everyone that has shared and donated so far. ❤️💕

People often blame screen readers for memes or posts being inaccessible. But frustrations with how screen readers work don't let us off the hook. We should still try. Adrian Roselli has a great resource on what screen readers are (and aren't).
