all the wonderful things the gig economy has done for workers may be coming to a nurse-employing location near you. #latestagecapitalism #extractiveeconomy

With drugstores and office supply stores closing, it's harder to find something as basic as a Post-it. Local university bookstore solved the issue.

Accessibility isn't radical. Curb cuts, captions, and large print are useful in making the world easier to navigate. This is true regardless of the political views you hold.

I can help with sharing for now. @wholewashington.org is growing grassroots support for universal healthcare in the state. If enough states push, we can see the nation change. bsky.app/profile/whol...

Thank you. I now know about chronic pain and the masking involved. If there is a part of masking you could stop doing, would you share? Or not. Sharing that the pain "hurts" relationships is a huge education boost for me. #disabilityvisibility #antiableism

Altadena family says disabled father and son were left to burn: 'Nobody was coming' Anthony Mitchell Sr., an amputee who used a wheelchair, and his son Justin, who had cerebral palsy, died due to slow evacuation efforts during the Altadena fire, relatives said Friday.

This story is haunting me. Dad, disabled, wouldn't leave his son, disabled. No one came. www.latimes.com/california/s... #ableismkills #disabilityjustice #disability

Wow. Even missing the first 30 minutes, I have a deeper understanding of Dr. King's work and how the work changed and was changed by his life. Never lose hope. Thank you again Marguerite Casey Foundation for a thought-stimulating conversation.

Worth reading because ableist education supporters will use cite, by title not details, this study. Especially given the pressure on special education funding Inclusion is important for anti-ableism. Understanding that your 2nd, 5th, 8th, 11th grade classmate is different, matters.

Go easy on them. NYT reporters aren't asked to consider much about the territory beyond the original 13 colonies. Manhattan myopia

KFF graphic featuring a quote from Robin Rudowitz, KFF vice president and director for the program on Medicaid and the Uninsured. It says, β€œCuts of this magnitude would put states at financial risk, forcing them to raise new revenues or reduce Medicaid spending by eliminating coverage for some people, covering fewer services, and (or) cutting rates paid to physicians, hospitals, and nursing homes.”

⚑ House Republicans are reportedly considering cutting $2.3 trillion from Medicaid over 10 years β€” nearly a third of all federal Medicaid spending.

Such cuts would fundamentally change how Medicaid financing works, writes KFF’s @robinr.bsky.social. #QuickTake on.kff.org/429Yq5m

Sat in on a Arc of WA State presentation and learned how deeply Medicaid cuts would hurt people with disabilities (and their families.) The indifference is damning

Could we assume most requests are legit and that the costs for to provide for one or two with "bought" documentation is the price of ableism?

What's your take on Pathfinder? I want to like it but haven't yet found a drink with it that's palatable.

Medicaid is a lifeline! People with disabilities rely on Medicaid services to support them in their daily lives. But about 711k people are waiting for Medicaid services. We need MORE funding, not less. #ProtectMedicaid and save lives! Sharing this message thanks to the The Arc of United States.
