Crip Up The Kitchen โ€ข Jules Sherred - Author Crip Up the Kitchen is a comprehensive guide and recipe collection that brings the economy and satisfaction of home cooking to disabled and neurodivergent cooks.

4 years ago today, I got my offer of pub for CRIP UP THE KITCHEN. 3 years ago today, it went to the printer (1 year is an extremely rushed production cycle for a cookbook oof).

Today is the perfect day to buy it for yourself or the disabled people in your life!

Grand Rapids library shifting to 7-hour days, 3 times a week in new year Budget cuts are forcing the library to be open just Monday through Wednesday. But a new fundraising effort aims to offset the cuts in the future.

"The Grand Rapids Area Library [MN] will be open three days a week in 2026, after budget cuts forced a significant reduction in staff time."

That's a cut of 15 hours a week. It'll be open M-W, 10:30-5:30. That's it.

I think that there is no one who understands practical mechanics and dynamics as much as a woman who lives on her own. The furniture we can move by ourselves is miraculous

AI bot recorded doctorsโ€™ meeting, sent patient info to current and former hospital staff, watchdog says The transcription tool recorded the meeting on behalf of a physician who no longer worked at the hospital

Look I can absolutely conceive of a world where automated transcription works and provides a valuable service to doctors, patients, and caregivers.

That isn't the world we are living in though.

This world of AI bots is a privacy nightmare.

Stop using them.

(above images of the Target, Amazon, and Home Depot logos that have been crossed out) We Ain't Buying It Target Companies

This action is taking direct aim at Target, for caving to this administration's biased attacks on DEl; Home Depot, for allowing and colluding with ICE to kidnap our neighbors on their properties; and Amazon, for funding this administration to secure their own corporate tax cuts.

Then a chair at the monthly meeting said someone's not a real member until they canvas with them....

Do y'all want disabled/nd people involved or nah?

Bonus points btw: the link to sign up for that orientation is broken.

Tell me if I'm wrong... I have been going to some political meetings and decided to officially sign up for the local dems group.

The 2nd step after filling out the form is to come to an orientation that is hosted once a month at the same time/day each month.

Party of working folks where? (Cont)

The report an offer feature on query manager should only be used to report an offer of rep or pub

It should not be used to report a full request (esp for agents who say don't contact them for requests)

This has been happening a lot lately, so if someone is telling you to do this, don't listen

I know it's really about control, but the way these evil monsters talk about banning books to save the children out of one side of their mouths, and downplay an actual pedophile out of the other is rage inducing
