And the hits keep coming for disabled folks, though this one has been a long time coming: #CDC employees are forbidden to WFH. There's no real reason for this, and it's especially cruel given that CDC offices were subject to gunfire just months ago.

CDC staff with disabilities feel stranded as HHS implements new policy
CDC is asking employees seeking telework as a reasonable accommodation to return to the office until their requests can be processed under a new HHS policy.

Transphobes will never be content with excluding trans people from public life, they demand that everyone hate us as much as they do, that everyone should be elated by our absence and furious at our presence. They are utterly obsessed with us.
Note how these awful people are getting exactly the exclusions of children that they demanded and *that still isn’t enough for them*: they demand everyone be delighted about it and kiss their arses for being brilliant.

I don't care if a non-disabled person accesses a disability accommodation for the same reason I don't care if a child whose parents are rich gets free lunch at school. We don't need to means test being a kind person. I have better things to do with my time than be a cop over social services.

and now more kids have long covid than asthma—and the number of people disabled by covid is only going to keep increasing, even if deaths aren’t quite as prominent anymore, because we’re letting infectious disease run rampant.
The end of COVID relief and the fact that we changed nothing—no new workplace safety rules, no single-payer, etc.—after over 1 million Americans died represents probably the greatest political scandal of the last 100 years.

If you need a gift this holiday you should consider @j0micrafts.bsky.social ‘s fucking incredible holiday candle Balsam & Berry. I like to support a local queer and latine owned small business for cute RPG themed candles, but this scent is something special

There are multiple Jewish ethnicities. There are multiple Jewish faith traditions. Not all Jews are white or Ashkenazi. Judaism isn't a race.

Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.

It’s World AIDS Day today. We’re thinking about the practices our communities have developed to keep each other alive—and the shifts we need to see in public health, from small groups to large institutions.

Not acknowledging World AIDS Day and engaging in COVID revisionism are straight from the eugenics playbook. One of the most effective ways of making people invisible is by erasing their history.

Zionism is the Jew-ish hat and tzitzit on Christian hegemony
It is a deep disgrace to the Jewish people that Stephen Miller, a man who would betray his own people to the Nazis as he goosestepped into the camps himself, is treated better by our institutions than Jews who publucly oppose the same kind of genocide and ethnic cleansing he endorses.

The U.S. unemployment rate just hit a four-year high at 4.4%. Now, try wrapping your head around the idea of a 43% unemployment rate.

That’s the reality formerly incarcerated Black women face, thanks to the prison penalty:

I can choose to inform or I can choose to be included. I cannot do both.

When someone says something that's offensive, I am choosing to further isolate myself if I inform them.

If I tell you that you caused harm, know that I am choosing to harm myself for the sake of spreading knowledge.

I’m am super anti ai but I’m also rational and I realize that people are gonna fuck up and use it. what’s important to me most is that they see how fucked up and wrong it is and stop. I can’t control what’s been done but I can allow people to learn and grow.

Seeing this administration push tens of millions of dollars into autism research while the folks providing job and skills training or direct care are barely paid minimum wage is infuriating. What if instead of trying to "cure" autism, we just supported autistic people?
I want to live in a world where even if there's a "cause" of autism found, the answer would be "so?" But we don't live in that world, and that includes people on all parts of the political spectrum.

“Protect the dolls” also means acknowledging Long COVID and protecting your community from it 🏳️‍⚧️😷
Did you know that trans people are more likely to report having Long COVID than cis people are?

On this annual Transgender Day of Resilience (TDOR), we’re sharing our resource on Long COVID in trans people.

Rudy Bridges is younger than the Sitting President of the United States and 29 sitting United States Senators
It’s useful for people of my generation to be reminded that this wasn’t that long ago. Ruby Bridges isn’t just still alive—she’s only 71, not ancient!
65 years ago on Nov. 14, little Ruby Bridges was escorted into an all-white elementary school in New Orleans. Norman Rockwell, renowned for blissful depictions of Americana, did this remarkable painting for Look magazine. Printed as a double page, over-size spread, it's his masterpiece.
