Hope @KatAnneAnderson is doing okay. Anyone heard from her? Teachers & Researchers United (TRU-UE) Coalition Against Policing by Hopkins 😷🇵🇸

Yep, I was literally dismissed from grad school for stuff like this and professors not believing me. #DisabilityTwitter

Today and every day, women have the right to make their own health care decisions.

I think this all the time! #MentalHeatlh

Is anyone else uncomfortable with the narrative that the Queen allowing disability and/or the use of mobility aids to be visible would cause distress to others? I certainly hope there isn't external pressure to take this approach #DisabilityTwitter news.com.au/entertainment/…

Being friends with a marginalized person doesn’t automatically make you an ally to their marginalized group(s)

read a load of people losing it over the phrase ‘identify as disabled’ & i have been viscerally reminded that abled people think that disabled people get told by a doctor that we’re disabled

This is exactly what we need. #DisabilityTwitter #AcademicAbleism #DisabledinSTEM

#NEISvoid #DisabilityTwitter I’ve been in my house since the end of February 2020. I’ve been out maybe 10X. I’ve become mildly agoraphobic. I don’t have panic attacks or increased anxiety. I’m just uncomfortable. I’d rather be home. Does anybody else feel this way?

As a disabled person, what question do you hate being asked?

I'll go first...

'What's WRONG with you?'

We need to change the language to be more inclusive. Just because someone is disabled or ill, does not equate wrong.

It implies we aren't equal to you.

For far too long #highered and #academia have been toxic environments for people w/disabilities. We deserve better. Students w/disabilities deserve to have the same shot as everyone else with obtaining a #highered ucation. Chris Van Hollen Senator Ben Cardin, this happened in MD.

I just seriously can't get over this. I want to help, but I don't know how. I've watched this person fight this case for such a long time. She has been a voice for all of us. #DisabilityTwitter #DisabledInSTEM #NEISvoid #Spoonie

i do love writing about disability (always will) and feel a lot of pride in being able to do so, but i just contracted my first big project that is NOT about my body and it feels SO GOOD.

i suppose this is just a kind lil reminder that you can hire disabled people to write… all kinds of things. 😘

Reminder to look carefully whether someone who “uses the right words” (i.e. around neurodiversity) is actually listening, learning, and aligning themselves with marginalized populations. Bad actors can co-op language, but they won’t fight for us.

The language of neurodiversity as radical acceptance and of disability justice can be stolen, twisted, blasphemed, but the actions rooted in these ideas hold true. Let them be more than words.
