I took a sick day for mental health today. I'm being transparent about that with everyone in hopes that it encourages others to do the same. Take care of yourselves. None of this is easy.

I am always struck by critical disability studies/crip studies scholarship that, while very much about disabled experiences and crip ways of being, retains the vibe or "aesthetics" of the academic "cool kids" who want nothing to do with *irl* disability...

most profound advice from my first piano teacher: “take care of every note” let no note go astray let no note be ignored or trampled or stinted grant every note, however seemingly subordinate, your attention an ethics takes root in that injunction

Schools were a disaster this past week. Sick kids and teachers across the US (and beyond). STOP accepting this as inevitable this time of year. Here are things schools, teachers, and parents can do to make next week (and next month) much different. Cuz it's gonna get worse. 🧵
