As you’re preparing for your Thanksgiving meal, remember the skilled work it took to get that food to your grocery store.
Tell us your favorite Thanksgiving dish, and we can share some of what we know about the work behind the ingredients.

Disability comes for everyone lucky enough to survive all the things trying to take us down.
Fighting for disability rights doesn't just help the currently disabled.
It could help you someday too.

Not only do you normalize accessibility, you also reinforce plausible deniability that anyone wearing a mask has criminal intentions. Mask up babes
One thing you can do to help protesters? Mask up.
Continue to make widespread masking as normal as possible.

If you want to learn more about mask bans and how the government exploited anti-mask rhetoric and hatred of disabled people to push a eugenics agenda, check out my article from last year.
Also, mask back up. We must normalize them as a public health tool.

Mask bans and revocation of medical exemptions have been all over social media this week - and anti-maskers are reacting with glee. They are celebrating disabled people losing a tool for protection.

Do not split
the hong kong protestors used the phrase "do not split" to mean that the radical protest and peaceful protest arms of the movement should refuse to criticize each other.
