I was instrumental in bringing down an unlawful federal government policy that claimed lives, I did it all without leaving my house via platforms including Twitter and Facebook, and I will never fucking apologise for my action being predominantly or exclusively online. You're welcome, ableds.

For many, the only "voice" that people will listen to is not their actual voice. Again, for a variety of reasons, all aligned with ableism and with eugenics against folks with higher support needs.

And when one is attempting to live a life wherein the Venn circles of values, ethics, and tangible impact create as close to a circle as possible when one is multiply disabled? There is no doubt that posting is praxis.

There are a variety of reasons why making a blanket statement like, "Posting is not praxis," is problematic... ...but the clear one is that is absolutely is ableist and condescending in aanner that you are going to harm more people than you probably want to when you say it. Or maybe YDC.

Also, still vote harder even as voting becomes harder, disproportionately for already disenfranchised voters. Also, Biden is apparently dissenting along with Sotamayor. That has to count for something, right?

Helping with self regulation and respecting sensory sensitivities are foundational to supporting anyone Many of the things we try to “treat” should be accommodated for instead

It's truly maddening because we actually do know enough about the human nervous system across developmental stages, both typical and atypical, and yet they insist on this bunk evidence base of forced assimilation.

And then there is always this undercurrent of..."this is easy and if you can't do it you really are broken and the problem is just you, existentially," which is super great for the RSD, self-esteem, and the motivation and whatnot.

I think it is...actually. The thought occurs, but is immediately smacked down by the paradigm of radical behaviorism, aba, and other forms of forced assimilationism. "WELL IF I DO THIS NOW...what's this kid gonna be like later?"

Accommodate first, foremost, and always. Assimilate only with the explicit consent from and partnership with said child/person. Yes.

I hate it when people lie to my face to save their own. It's like, sure, there are discussions to be had about posting-as-praxis, but so precious few people seem to be approaching them in truly good faith and with a person-centered, trauma-informed framing.

Absolutely anything to avoid a confrontation with systems, programs, communities, and society. I would imagine this book is very assimilation focused. Low-key gaslighting those who don't "succeed" or make efficacious use of the tenets or tools. I could be way off, though.

For a lot of Disabled people, posting-as-praxis is what we can do. I don't have a lot of respect for people who want to denigrate this specific part of community participation.

And, in the impotent, performative, infuriating words of Joe Biden himself? "I concur with what Justice Sotomayor wrote regarding the Supreme Court's dangerous decision on Presidential immunity: "With fear for our democracy, I dissent." I dissent. We all should."

Does the use of potatoes change/influence the gnocchi taxonomy away from pasta? It just doesn't feel like a noodle to me.

I'm still reeling a bit from Emma's insight that (and I know I was) many were reading in completely good faith and with full benefit of the doubt. That's exactly what happened for me. Also I was on Semester at Sea when I picked up that first book in a British bookseller in Kobe. I was like 22.

It's astounding to me, looking back at the much younger man who devoured those novels, how I missed absolutely everything. This fictional tome of forced assimilationism, eugenics, and everything we so clearly see from Joanne at present.

Joe Biden can, at present, as an official act, order his military to torture and murder Donald Trump, and he would, legally, at present, be immune from any legal or judicial conservative.
