Lots of wheelchair users prefer tubs to showers. Tubs can also be made to be more accessible to many via a lift or initial design. Showers should not be the only option for an accessible bathroom.

Normalize building new homes with accessible bathrooms.

There are too many people “against” things they do not understand. Being “against” something requires a basic comprehension of said thing to begin with.

Removing the harmful narrative that wheelchair users only dream of being magically cured and able to walk is a huge win for the disabled community. #Wicked #WickedForGood

Mobility aids are not restrictive. Inaccessibility is restrictive.

The Wobbly Life Space Update is absolutely amazing! 👽🪐🌎 @wobblylifedev.bsky.social

Realtors should be more well-versed in accessibility. If they are able to locate very specific WANTS for clients, such as certain style porches, materials, etc., then they should be able to locate general specific NEEDS for clients, such as wider doorways, larger bathrooms, and ramps in searches.

Accessibility is not optional or “would be nice.” Accessibility is absolutely necessary.

Wheelchairs and mobility aids are not optional luggage. They are a person’s legs, stability, safety, and often only way of getting around. Yet, they are considering not holding airlines accountable for damaging them.

The newly released Lego Party game includes a prosthetic leg customization option.

When playing video games as a wheelchair user, I always find it more natural when I get to control a character that rolls.

Shower seat with built-in storage basket:

Believing that disabled people have had anything “handed to them“ is such a weird take. Especially when the actual things disabled people are consistently handed are inaccessibility, ableism, and intrusive questions.

Too many people are unaware of the fact that the “fire safety plan” for wheelchair user students or employees who study or work on an upper level of a multistory building is usually just, “Wait by the top of the stairs and hope someone comes to rescue you.” ✨🚒✨

MOEN shower shelf that is also a grab bar:

Normalize offering non-candy Halloween treats for trick-or-treaters with food allergies. 🎃

You can do everything “right” and still become disabled. You can do everything “right” and have a child who is disabled. There is nothing wrong with being disabled, and if more of us approached disability with compassion, understanding, and advocacy instead of fear, the world would be better.

I think too many people need something to blame for the existence of disability. But the reality is that disability oftentimes just happens and is a normal part of human diversity and life.

IKEA‘s new accessibility products feature a stylish shower chair, towel bar, and soap holder. Both the towel bar and soap holder double as grab bars.

You can now get mobility aids for your Neopets. 💚

I personally find it odd that incurring $50K+ in student loan debt is less socially acceptable than incurring $50K in wedding debt.

Reminders that unfortunately still need to be made: Do not pat wheelchair user strangers on the head. Do not touch disabled strangers. Period.

Self-checkout is not often wheelchair accessible and should not be the only option available.

Wheelchair users be out in public minding their own business and avoiding eye contact with strangers looking at them like this:

Love this game!!! ✨

Reminder that a huge portion of those who receive SNAP benefits work and pay taxes. Those who do not are elderly, disabled, or children.

Person receiving food stamps: *buys cheap boxes of rice and mac and cheese for meals* Critics: “Ugh! Food stamps should not cover junk food!” Person receiving food stamps: *buys pricier higher quality fresh food* Critics: “Ugh! People on benefits are eating better than I do!”

Disabled people often do not have the luxury of budgeting their way out of systematic poverty.

Accessibility is not unreasonable.

The Star Wars universe has more ramps and makes things more accessible for the droids than the real world does for disabled people.

Having a ramp does not always mean being accessible.

Arriving at the subway station after checking that it is wheelchair accessible:

Me whenever anyone states that less than 1% of the population is disabled:

Why actual disabled people should be consulted when designing accessibility:

People who need to move into assisted living should never be forced to give up their pets.

Disabled employees deserve fair and equal pay.

Me ready with my graphs, charts, and statistics whenever anyone claims that the total number of disabled people is “less than 1%”:

Inaccessibility in medical settings can look like: The reception desk being too high. Examination tables that do not adjust for height. Restrooms not being accessible or being used for storage. Scales that do not accommodate a wheelchair or mobility aid. Lack of accessible parking.

Ableist does not mean “able-bodied” or “non-disabled.” Ableist means discriminatory against those with disabilities. Both non-disabled and disabled people can be ableist.

Ableists when someone suggests disabled people deserve the same access as they have:

Disability-related expenses that may do not consider: Ordering food when you do not have the energy to cook. Ride-shares if you are unable to drive or do not live somewhere with accessible transportation. All of the things insurance does not cover.
