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.

A disabled person having fun is not faking. A disabled person getting things done on a good day is not faking. A disabled person living in a way that looks different from another’s narrow expectations of what their life should be is not faking.

Too many people do not realize that insurance generally does not cover everything related to someone’s disability.

I would love to see a cooking show featuring a chef who is a wheelchair user.

They say money does not buy happiness. But money DOES buy accessibility, home modifications, mobility aids, assistive technology, and countless things that make the lives of disabled people exponentially better.

When something impacts every aspect of someone’s life in both minor and major ways, they tend to talk about it a lot. Disability is no exception.

Please make sure the toilet paper dispensers are not too low in the accessible bathroom stall.

You know how backwards the world has become when you have people telling disabled people to consider how hard billionaires have it.

Halloween Tip: If your front porch has stairs, set up a candy station at the base of the stairs instead of the top to provide accessibility for disabled trick-or-treaters.

Robotic kaiju tail mobility aid! 🦖💥

I would rather be celebrating a day when disabled people can marry without losing their benefits than the engagement of a billionaire.

When you put that first fall decoration out:

Sitting in the shower is not lazy.

More people need to realize that many invisible disabilities are far more debilitating than visible ones.

Many non-disabled people have an incredibly difficult time grasping the fact that disabled people and those with chronic conditions are not going to “get better.”

When a place that says it’s accessible is actually accessible:

Disabled people should not have to worry about their personal care being cut.

Home accessibility is more than just building a ramp to get inside. It is designing things in a way that allows people with disabilities to function and thrive.
