Obviously, a lot of the right's rhetoric on Kirk is a pretext to attack the left, but some of it also shows how desperate they are to avoid talking about the economy, Epstein, or Russia attacking Poland. They're going to push this as hard as they can.

Accessibility is about freedom. It removes the shackles that prevent some people from using technology, entering buildings, getting information, or simply living life. When you free those who were constrained by barriers, you often end up freeing others in the process. #Accessibility #AXSChat

It's our birthday--August is the birthday of @diyabled.bsky.social & @10minutesaday.bsky.social's founders & board! We're celebrating here! Join us! 💜🎂 #Disability #DisabilitySky #DisabilityJustice #DisabilityRightsAreHumanRights #HappyBirthday #HBD

#hEDS is underdiagnosed, neglected or misunderstood by many clinicians, & it’s a BFD that affects all the body’s organ systems. Ty for this study! 👏👏👏👏👏 #CPP #EDS #ChronicPain #Disability #DisabilitySky

Brad Lomax, a disabled Black Panther and primary organizer of the 504 Protest, helped bridge the disability community in SF with the Black Panthers. He convinced both groups of the need for solidarity & paved the path to eventual passage of the ADA as a result. One of the great American activists.

Today’s actions focus on #AssistedSuicide, which is to say NO to these bills, which harm disabled people & are opposed by DREDF, RAMPD, Access Living, & many more. Check it out! #DisabilityRightsAreHumanRights #DisabilityJustice #DisabilitySky

ILLINOIS! We continue to oppose the assisted suicide bill that the House passed (but Senate did not). Here are some of the reasons why the #Disability community has coalesced to reject that bill. #PAS #DisabilityJustice #DisabilityRightsAreHumanRights.💜💙💜

I don't cover wellness stuff, yet somehow I get more PR pitches on that than I do on anything related to disability 🤔

107 Days! #Kamala #KDH #KHIVE 💙💛

Although #DisabilityPride Month is over, we want to keep the focus on two things: #DisabilityJustice & that we have a right to take pride in our community every single day. 💜💙💜

👏👏👏👏 to our #LGBTQ+ friends for talking ab why #DisabilityPride month is so important & that we can’t achieve rights for all of us without including #DisabilityJustice. 💙💜

#Accessibility benefits everyone!July is #DisabilityPride month, & we need everyone’s help to protect our most marginalized communities & celebrate our diversity & passion. 💜💙 #DisabilityJustice #DisabilityRightsAreHumanRights

Prayer is the only thing Republicans can now offer Americans because they Call climate change a “hoax” and have no interest in trying to prevent it from killing people Decimated the National Weather Service Cut FEMA drastically In an emergency we can’t count on help from a GOP run government

This is 47, Abbott and Nazis Barbie’s fault. They ignored all the warnings. Instead of preparing for this catastrophic flooding, they spent their time and FEMA money on building a concentration camp in the Everglades. These deaths are on them!

Nazi Germany loved eugenics—that’s where we’re at again—trying to “purify the gene pool.” This should shock you, & we may be one of the 1st groups under attack, but they’ll come for everyone. #Resist #DisabilityRightsAreHumanRights#DisabilityJustice 💜💙

Please, whether you’re a member of the #Disability community or not, fight for & with us. We need everyone’s support. What is happening now is eerily similar to Nazi Germany, when disabled people were used as Nazi “guinea pigs” to “perfect” concentration camps. 3/

The #BigUglyBill, aka #HR1 passed on 7/3, & the #Disability community will be one of the hardest hit, as cuts to #Medicaid of almost $1T go into effect. Many other healthcare protections have been eliminated, so insurers can behave in a pre-ACÁ way again. #DisabilityRightsAreHumanRights 2/

July is #DisabilityPride month Did you know that: * Disabled folks are the largest minority in the US * There were over 40M disabled registered voters in 2024 * Disability intersects with every other demographic * 2/3rds of US households have a disabled person in them? #DisabilitySky 1/

Did you know there’s a #DisabilityPride flag? We’re a vibrant & talented community with a lot of compassion & diversity! 💜💙 Here’s the flag & what it means. #DisabilityRightsAreHumanRights #DisabilityJustice

We were so excited to see @newdisabledsouth.org on Forbes 2025 #Accessibility 100 list, so we wrote about it a bit in our blog, with a special thank you to @thetattooedjew.com, Dom Kelly, for New Disabled South's leadership & commitment to accessibility & inclusivity. 💜💙 #DisabilitySky #Disability

Hi friends! We updated our list of resources for the #disability community, which you can find here! 💜💙 #DisabilityRightsAreHumanRights #DisabilityJustice www.10minutesaday.org/disability-r...

Trump is using data to spy on, abuse, and attack Americans. Here are six databases for seeing what they’re doing. “These tools are vital resources for documenting, contextualizing, and analyzing the flood of federal activity that is fundamentally reshaping the US.” www.wired.com/story/toll-t...

The data about hate crimes against the #disability community too often aren’t tracked, & they can reach alarming rates. Please work towards #DisabilityJustice, as we can’t achieve social justice without it. #DisabilityRightsAreHumanRights 💜💙

I accept your challenge 😉😄🦓🩵 #EDS #ehlersdanlossyndrome #HSD #raredisease #chronicillness #chronicpain #invisibleillness #disability #dynamicdisability #mentalhealth #healthmeme

Trump has ordered ICE to expand deportations in Chicago. Gov Pritzker has condemned Trump’s order to ramp up ICE raids in Chicago, and communities are standing united against these harsh enforcement tactics. www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/c...

The Nazis targeted disabled people first. They knew no one would speak up for us They tested the gas chambers on us Ableism & eugenics feed right into fascism and white supremacy Now more than ever we need folks to engage with disabled activists. Learn about disability justice

Shout out to @diyabled.bsky.social for making this point—please use #DEIA to include the #disability community! 💜 #DisabilityRightsOrHumanRights #DisabilityJustice #Accessibility #AccessMatters

#HR1 is big, but it’s an ugly bill, with so many ways to take basic rights & services away from disenfranchised communities, targeting the #disability, #immigrants, & #trans folks especially hard. Pls sign this & send to your elected officials! We need #DisabilityJustice! #Resist #HR1 #GOPBudgetBill

I’ve been up nearly 24 hours doing this. Can y’all point make us wait another 24 to get a measly $28 please? If someone gives I can shut up and go away at least for some hours. #mutualaid #MAboost #MArequest #helppeoplelive2025 #urgentMA #emergencyMA #helpsky #fundsky

Hey all, members of the #Disability community suggest changing #DEI to #DEIA, with the A for accessibility. We also hope adding it makes us more visible to social justice advocates, as it makes clear that accessibility is a key, & there’s no social justice without #DisabilityJustice 💜

The #GOPBudget would end the subsides the Affordable Care Act provides, risking countless people losing their ability to get #healthcare. Sign & send this petition from @resist.bot to your senators to tell them to vote NO on that bill! 💙💜 #ACA #Resist #ProtectOurCare

"There is no disability justice anywhere without freedom in Palestine. We can’t claim to believe in collective access while being silent about apartheid (...) We have to stop treating solidarity like it’s optional." mondoweiss.net/2025/06/ther...

Excellent NYT graphic. In the space of about 3 months, tariffs on China: -- doubled; -- went up ≈ 2.5X from there; -- roughly doubled again; -- went up ≈ 40% from there; -- and now have dropped ≈ 80% from the peak -- but are still 3X what they were in February. www.nytimes.com/article/trum...

Yes, bc ableism is pervasive, & saying it “costs 2 much to make fix” is like plantation owners talking “economic hardship” w/o slavery. PWD were 1st casualties in the Holocaust, used to justify it, & enslaved here (still) in many ways. Stop spending $$$ on ICE, & the money’s there 4 social justice.
