Happy National Space Day! We should build a future in space that is accessible to all. AstroAccess is an organization I helped start to encourage universal design and disability inclusion in space. Here's a great article on the program (see pp 10-15): lnkd.in/gSgXmiEk

It’s National Amputee Awareness Week from 4 to 11 October. This is important as I run Minds at Play where we play #DungeonsandDragons and I am off to PAX Australia to talk on #pax panel. This means for the rest of the week I have disadvantage on all stealth checks! Wish me luck!
