I'm thinking about @nonbinary.computer's Jacquard library as a tool to generalize filtering lexicons beyond bluesky lexicons for rsky-labeler

I'm going to give it some thought but I'm not going to commit time to it beyond writing a note this week on it.

At the top, the Disability Culture Lab logo in white is centered over a teal header section. Below is teal header text that reads “2025 Disability Rising Fellow” over a pale blue background. Centered is a circle picture of Dr. Coghill, a Black femme with multi-colored glasses, a tan shirt that says "the future is" in black cursive font, and short blonde and pink hair. They sit in front of a gold and white bookshelf filled with different books of multiple colors and sizes. On either side of the circle picture are teal framing sections. Below the picture, teal text reads “Dr. KáLyn Coghill (they/them)” and “Blacksky Algorithms Inc.” as the fellow’s affiliation. At the bottom of the slide is a pink footer section with teal horizontal shapes on the left side pointing toward the right. Centered in the footer is teal text that reads “tinyurl.com/DCLFellows.”

Tough year with many changes, deaths, and rejections. But there have been a lot of moments of reflection, pivot, and vulnerability that have determined my next steps. So happy to be a Disability Rising fellow for @disabilitylab.bsky.social ! This is truly a moment of joy! tinyurl.com/DCLFellows
