Absolutely amazing what starts growing in your garden and you'd swear you never planted it.
In olden times, you'd walk into a shop and look at, say, a cake, decide not to buy it, and walk out of the shop safe in the knowledge that nobody would be following you around with the cake for the next 6 weeks just in case you change your mind.
“We recommend listening to neurodivergent people to find out about their preferences and using the words that they prefer, instead of solely being led by traditions which have developed without the input of the communities we are referring to.”

LOL, trying to stay offline and do my work, and friends are sending me
"LOOK AT THIS NEW PIC!" texts ....
This one is worth it.
First PoC and first woman to go around another world. Don't stop talking about this point. It's important.

Let me say this plainly: Iranian children have as much of a right to live and thrive as American children.
Their babies MUST be as precious to me as my 6 niblings and my baby grandnib are IF I want them to have a future.
If I want a future for my kin AND humanity, I MUST act like it.
So must you.
Two pictures of the pillsbury dough boy: once is on a purple background with the caption “he is risen! happy Easter!”, and the other is tan and brown, similar to a cracker, on a white background saying “he is not! Happy Passover!”
It’s time to post one of my favorite memes of the year.
Incredible footage from a United Airlines flight of the Artemis II launch.
Light pink graphic decorated with pink, white, and blue roses. In the lower right hand corner is an illustration of three trans-spec people: one in a wheelchair, one with pink hair and their arms covered in tattoos, and one brown transfemme person crouching down and wearing blue heels. Two of the characters are brandishing the transgender flag behind them. The graphic is titled “32 Newly Released and Soon-to-Be Released Trans+ Books For Your TBR”.

Indivisible Brooklyn members carrying big butterflies and flowers and a big sun that says "WE ARE THE POWER" and a sign that says "They tried to bury us" walk towards us in NYC. Low angle looking up, emphasis on the signs. Glorious color, all handmade.
Another shot of that glorious protest art from @juliepeppito.bsky.social and crew at #NoKings Manhattan. Marching with @bkindivisible.bsky.social. Just gorgeous color throughout this march. Amazing.
For Bitch Magazine, she curated the Access Issue, a fantastic collection of reads on disability culture that we were proud to reprint at @theflytrapmedia.com
For @transom.bsky.social 'On radio, I want to hear people who lisp, stutter, make noises when they talk, use computer-generated speech, communicate, enunciate, and pronounce differently.'
Thinking of my beloved tiger queen Alice Wong today, and what better a way to celebrate than with her work; Alice was so many things, and among them was an incredibly sharp, talented writer with a luminous love for words.
Gonna drop the gimmick for a second and explain, as a therapist. What you're describing is a phenomenon called Revenge Bedtime Procrastination. It's a subconscious habit that develops in which a person seeks dopamine-releasing behavior at night to exact "revenge" on the day which deprived them
With a colleague & (former) students, we looked at how our SLP/AUD graduate program implemented UDL before & after some informal UDL training & if students thought the strategies were useful for their learning. We’re presenting at a conference for clinical/academic program faculty & admin in April
Worth a try! I’m procrastinating on a few of those & a presentation just now
There are just no words. More power to her. May she find peace as she continues to do her amazing work.
Now I know what you’re thinking: Did they make a video abstract for this important study? Reader,
Hear me out: What if instead of 'treating' (aka 'managing' and 'controlling') or 'curing' autism, you talk to actual autistics about what we want and need, and definitely do NOT pay attention to quackery and misinformation peddled by the federal government.
For pi day, instead of a lattice we made a pile of pis.
Today is the 36th anniversary of the Capitol Crawl and disabled people are still fighting for basic rights in a society that's actively working to undermine them, surrounded by systemic disablism.
(This is a corrected thread TY to the person who flagged that I said 26th, not 36th!)
Same. I really should have just gone to sleep
When they played the tribute video between 1Q & 2Q, it lasted the entirety of the break and the crowd and all the Grizzlies players were standing and applauding well after the timeout buzzer sounded for players to be back on the court.
This city, this fanbase, everyone here loves JJJ
It's almost time for Ramadan, as Muslims tonight peered to the crescent moon to see if the month of Ramadan starts tonight or the day after. As with every year, I'm starting this thread so that people can ask questions, and learn about Ramadan from one person's perspective of it.
Let me tell you a tale of how completely the normies have been mobilized. My 14 year-old niece has done School of Rock for the past 5 years; last summer she was part of their touring band, and the kids loved playing together so much that they decided to keep doing it. (1/?)

It’s been a stressful week but the Girl Scout cookies arrived so Bowie has a new box to occupy & I have treats & we are feeling a little better. #Caturday
A perfect explainer for all of us who've needed it. :)
Benito really did the thing tonight and gave us an amazing performance I'm going to be thinking about for a long time
I hope this inspires some of you to become fans and listen to his music
If you do, I'm always here to talk about him with you!! (Starting tomorrow. I'm going to bed)
Hey everybody be quiet this is important
