The cover of Being Seen by Elsa Sjunnesoj features pale gray and white text against a black backdrop. The title is spelled out in all cap sans serif font with the letter “I” in “Being” centered on the first line with light shining out of it and toward the right edge of the cover. Above the title is Elsa’s name in a similar but smaller and brighter white font, and below the title is faintly rainbow colored text that reads: One Deafblind Woman’s Fight to End Ableism.

Just got rejected for another job as they need someone to be in the office! This is ridiculous, media careers should be available to everyone not just for people that can travel. #careerinmedia #chronicillness #disabilityInMedia #chronicpain #DisabledLife #Disability #spoonielife #disabilityrights
Just because we need to work from home due to our disability/chronic pain shouldn’t mean we miss out on certain careers! #disabled #careerinmedia #chronicillness #workfromhome #DisabilityMatters #disabledcareers #disabilityInMedia #chronicpain #DisabledLife #Disability #spoonielife #disabilityrights
How many people who need to work from home due to disabilities/chronic illness had to give up a career in media due to lack of remote opportunities? #disabled #careerinmedia #talentagent #chronicillness #workfromhome #DisabilityMatters #disabledWFHcareers #disabilityInMedia @mishacollins.bsky.social
The more I research the more I realise that if you’re disabled or chronically ill & can only work from home, you better not want a career in the media industry as an assistant (Talent Agent/Actor etc) very disappointing #disabledWFHcareers #DisabilityMatters #disabilityInMedia #chronicillness
