Testing the Omni mask next week for Deaf access needs.
It was expensive, so you'd need to split the payment (I did), and if anyone is interested in hearing about it, how I liked it and if we found it worked, let me know...

I checked the radar for tomorrow because I have to go out in the morning.
I finally understand why it's called a "river" because I'm pretty sure it's just a 2000+ mile length of rain heading our way. 😳😧 Though obviously I don't know if it's going to all come directly at us.

Just sent my nearly 2 year old accommodation request to new staff for the 3rd time! I love being disabled and having rights! It is not at all a systemic burden placed on individuals just trying to have their basic needs met!

It’s really depressing when the state of housing advocacy is: Do disabled people deserve accessible housing or will market rate developers scream, cry, and stomp???

Know what the biggest threat is? It's HATE.
Have yet to meet a horrible Muslim. In fact, they've all been lovely. They come here (or were born here) wanting a better life. They work hard and love their families/kids. Just like most people in this country
This needs to stop.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said that Muslims are a “threat to our freedom” on Tuesday as he targeted the largest Muslim civil rights organization in the U.S. with a foreign terrorist organization label in an escalation of a movement of anti-Muslim hate in the state.
Abbott Says Muslims Are “Threat to Our Freedom” as He Targets Civil Rights Group With Terrorist Designation
Governors do not have the authority to designate groups as a foreign terrorist organization.

My personal “Don’t give to the Salvation Army” story:
When I was homeless in 2019, the Salvation Army shelter refused to give me a bed (even though they were available), because I was on immunosuppressant meds and they didn’t want to be responsible or liable if I got more sick or died on premises. They’d rather I die on the street.
It’s dinner time for the police. Appears to be pizza from a Salvation Army van.
Broadview’s “free speech” curfew starts soon, at 6pm.

It’s #SolidaritySeason and we’re joining @sbworkersunited.bsky.social baristas in their fight for a fair contract. Seattle’s newly elected mayor, Katie Wilson, joined our Seattle rally today to stand with workers, too.

I called Mayor-elect Wilson to extend my congratulations. It’s been a very long time since King County and Seattle have both elected new leaders at the same time. That means we have an opportunity for a true reset, to try new strategies and form new partnerships to tackle our region’s challenges.

We took on a powerful incumbent who was expected to coast to reelection.
We faced more corporate PAC money than has ever been spent attacking a candidate in a Seattle election.
We built a people-powered movement rooted in hope for our city’s future.
And we won.
This is YOUR city!

I want everyone to have a mayor like this.
But as of today, Seattle will actually have a mayor who DOES say this.
I can't wait for the future in Seattle/King County. I love my home and I am so proud we elected people who genuinely want to make it better.
