I wrote about @npr.org ‘s decision to frame disabled people's ongoing exclusion from all public spaces as an annoyance to be navigated by individuals, rather than a massive civil rights violation to be challenged by the collective.

Thank you for this, I needed it. It’s so soul crushing that trying to protect myself from more harm elicits eye rolls from people that I thought loved and cared about me.

If we could only find a way to make indoor spaces inclusive with enough money left over to buy a third island paradise for some blood sucking piece of shit investor…

The weirdest thing to me is that we, collectively, seem to have memory-holed the ADA.

Could they bar me if this became popular from a grocery store or a hair salon? How about a movie. I would be forced to live only in my room. Sorry, extremely unsettling to me.

Thank you. I saw the NPR headline and it was enough to make me say, “Well, that’s a messed up way of thinking about it.”

I did not realize you’d jumped on bsky—Welcome! I’ve been recommending your piece up and down the socialsphere. The # of stories othering the Covid cautious, those w/ long Covid & other immunocompromised ppl, and/or “influenza-izing” this pandemic seems to be increasing. Infuriating. Heartbreaking.

Ugh, you’re amazing. The other thing that’s been bugging me is that for all the focus on “unpacking anxiety” in that piece, there’s no reflection on how stress itself can exacerbate symptoms. So, avoiding anxious situations is also integral to managing your existing disease… it’s another tool.

Thank you for writing about such an important issue, being disabled in this climate feels like drowning. I wish every able bodied individual had this amount of compassion and drive for change.

I wish my family actually cared enough about my heath to take precautions while in public but apparently they don't because I am sick with covid for the fourth time now and I always mask and wash my hands. So someone is bringing it home to me.

Thank you so much for this. I have long COVID and have lived in isolation for 27 months.
