This is a post about online dating—so if that’s not your thing, feel free to grab a quiet snack on your way out (borrowing that from a disabled creator I love). 1/

But I can’t ignore that my disability adds another layer. Because of how visible it is, it often takes people time to see me—to get past the wheelchair, the movement, the things that feel unfamiliar at first. And dating apps aren’t really built for that kind of time.

I don’t have a big takeaway here. I just feel frustrated sometimes—like the people I’m genuinely excited about don’t see me as a potential partner. They see the chair, not the PhD.

Hey Ya'll, I’m trying to find a journal that will take a very short quantitative paper on disability and occupational segregation. Do my soc or dis studies colleagues have any ideas?

.@ASAnews @ASADisability missed the deadline to request a remote presentation by 2 days and now I can’t present my own research that I have been working on for two years. This is incredibly ableist for an organization that claims to promote "access for all”. Do BETTER @ASAnews!

How hard is it for you all to say disability? Now the new thing is, "ably different”. Look up ably. It doesn’t mean what you all think it does. It’s basically saying sufficiently different, which doesn’t make any sense. Disability is NOT a bad word; why do you all think it is?

This will definitely help the overpayment crisis. Thanks, USA!
40 million Americans over 65 voted for Trump. Their reward? Massive cuts to Social Security and Medicare by a foreign billionaire. Followed by funding cuts to their grandchildren's schools and universities.

Check out my new Op-ed via @thehill on how Social Security claimed that I owe them $101,000 simply for working as a person with a #Disability. Big thanks to @YTICornell @cornellilr @jtyson21 and @Damien__Sharp for helping get my story out tinyurl.com/4kectxw4
