Joined advocates at the Capitol for Armenian Genocide Remembrance Day. We remember the lives lost & recommit to truth, recognition, & justice. The CA Armenian Legislative Caucus, led by Chair John Harabedian, recognized the Armenian National Committee-WR for their decades of advocacy today.

April 24th 2026: Armenian Genocide Remembrance Day armenpress.am/en/article/1...

If you think the Pope is a radical leftist, wait till you meet his boss.

On Yom HaShoah, we pause to remember the millions of Jewish lives lost during the Holocaust. We must recommit ourselves to confronting antisemitism with urgency and resolve because Never Again is our responsibility.

OH. MY. GOD. THIS IS THE MILKY WAY SHOT BY THE ARTEMIS II CREW. LOOK AT ALL THOSE STARS!!!!

We shouldn't all be forced to live in this episode of The Twilight Zone constantly. This is no way to live.

The President of the United States is threatening to commit war crimes and wipe out a "whole civilization" — all because he started a disastrous war of his own making and had no plan and no strategy for how to end it. This is abhorrent, and the American people do not support this.

We won't last 33 more months of this. This must stop. We must make it stop.

Not considering how the new area would affect the sightlines is ridiculous. So often it seems like disabled viewing areas are an afterthought. I've been to shows where I could see nothing, no jumbotron, no stage, becuase the ADA section was entirely obstructed when everyone stood. #sdisability 1/

It’s time to post one of my favorite memes of the year.

We need to make life more affordable for Americans, not get into forever wars.

NASA just dropped this image of Artemis II astronaut Christina Koch looking back at us. The first woman to ever see our planet in its entirety. I’m not crying you’re crying 🥹🔭🧪 📸: NASA

🚨 Christina Koch has officially become the farthest any woman has ever traveled from Earth

I've seen this a few times in the #BuschGardens #Seaworld #ADA discourse so: No, a wheelchair is not a substitute for a rollator with a seat. At all. "but you can just push the empty chair and sit when you're tired!" Mhmm. Which can make that empty wheelchair tip really easily. 1/

Captain America's been torn apart. Now he's a court jester with a broken heart. - Guns N' Roses

Good. No, a rollator, wheelchair and ECV are not interchangeable. The mobility device a disabled person is using is the one THEY need. I hope this will be a deterrent for anyone else trying to ban rollators. #disability www.wfla.com/news/florida...

There's a pretty deliberate and disingenuous conflation of assistive AI and generative AI to make the latter seem beneficial, as well. The AI that helps drive a car isn't the same as the AI that scraped millions of works of art to generate a profile pic for someone and that gets lost.

Remember, there are MANY artists with disabilities out there who still use traditional methods to make art in their own beautiful way. Saying Gen AI can help those who are disabled is a smokescreen for fascists to help push poison into the areas resistant to AI bullshit.

i honestly can't stand seeing people say Gen AI is a disability aid because if it was a disability aid, they wouldn't be putting this much money into it

Every American needs to watch this:

It's not even midnight and we're already at "Deport Elmo."

All people had to do to prevent this is vote for Kamala Harris.

This. As I repeatedly said on my handle more times than I could count: Mental Health is politics Disability is politics Yes, some of us don't talk about on a daily basis for spoon reasons (Take care of yourselves first and foremost) But to folk who are outright deflecting the political arena

I actually agree that there is going to be a skill gap between people who regularly use AI vs those who refuse to use it, and it's that after the bubble pops the refusers will be fine while the AI-dependent will be missing or have let atrophy basic skills

Friendly reminder that what seems like a short/easy walk to you might be difficult, painful or entirely impossible for someone else. #Disability exists.

It says a lot that the only people I ever see talking about disability in a way that isn't condescending or flat out eugenics, are other disabled people.

We have some very cool athletes competing this year and they are worth tuning in to see and support. They’re what #America is really about so hopefully their shining example can do some image rehab. #LGBTQIA #Olympics #AmberGlenn 🏳️‍🌈

Perfect

I'm grateful Peacock streaming has the commentary-free venue feed available for figure skating at this #Olympics. I'm absolutely loving both #TeamJapan and #TeamUSA's skaters. So glad #AlysaLiu and #AmberGlenn have gold medals now! (what, you didn't think I was watching that other thing that's on?)

work. I walked behind him to his school. Clearly his foot was fine. Yes, I'm another invisible illness patient. MAYBE if I'd had a walking stick he may not have lied. Who knows. But I'm sure he's not the only one who does it. I've also had these experiences.

Today is #HolocaustRemembranceDay. My relative didn't live to see liberation, she was killed in 1942 in Auschwitz along with so many others from the Netherlands. One day I want to try to visit the memorial of names in Amsterdam, where she's remembered. @auschwitzmemorial.bsky.social

I need to talk about this article. It posits that a lot of people taking disabled seating at sporting events and concerts should not be there. The author briefly concedes invisible #disability exists but then goes on to say she observed people in the seating area 1/ www.cbc.ca/news/gopubli...

Today many on the right are leading us to a path where prejudice leads to hate and race, religion, disability, sexuality and all that is not their "norm" is not tolerated. It is not just the right but the left as well. Let's put aside our differences and just love one another

Here's what MAGA thinks of the disability rights movement in America: www.nytimes.com/2026/01/26/u...

The fact that so many therapists are private pay and do not accept insurance is likely part of the reason so many have trouble accessing mental health support. "But we can give you a Superbill" cool cool that does absolutely nothing to make the service affordable. #Disability #ChronicIllness 1/

“Freedom is not free. We have to work at it. Nurture it. Protect it. Even sacrifice for it.”

85 years ago, Charlie Chaplin delivered his famous speech at the end of his first film with dialogue - The Great Dictator. He spoke these timeless words as Nazis rose to power, and the drums of war beat in Europe, echoing across the world. As relevant, and necessary to hear, today as ever #Resist

When European countries were handing over their Jewish populations to Germany as Hitler invaded, Denmark was the one that stood strong to protect and hide its 7500 Jews. A vast majority of those lives were thus saved.

I've never been more livid than I am now at Trump's Davos speech. Wall to wall insults towards us in Europe - saying NATO has given the US nothing!!! How many years did our member countries fight in Afghanistan? How many Danes lost their lives? And he said 'America gave Greenland back to Denmark!!

Mischief Toy Store in St. Paul has until Wednesday to turn over employment records to the Department of Homeland Security as part of a surprise audit launched Friday, just hours after one of the shop's owners criticized ICE agents during a television interview. bit.ly/4r5AFol
