Bill is the best editor I’ve ever worked with, and you should consider yourself lucky if you’ve only heard what my film writing sounds like after his edits. Everyone send him good vibes.

As a huge proponent of identity-first language who is allergic to people-first HR speak, I have the same kneejerk reaction to people not identifying as disabled, but it’s really not my business what language others use to self-identify.

Angelo Muredda @amuredda.bsky.social · 25/02/2026
Also, good to remember that not everybody comes to disability identity or community the same way, and that there are huge variations by disability as well as by demographic factors and generation.

Angelo Muredda @amuredda.bsky.social · 25/02/2026
The disability community is a fractious, messy, big tent, and it would be good to be careful about how we talk about the people in it, and deliberate about what accountability can look like when the people in it cause harm in intentional or unintentional ways; there is no need for epic dunks or owns

Cursed discourse happening on Twitter where some maintain that Tourette’s is a fake disability and involuntary tics are a sneaky vocalization of core beliefs, while others feel John Davidson is an insufficient disability advocate for opting to describe echolalia as a condition, not a disability

When I complained, idly I thought, about Criterion forgoing disability perspectives on their Tod Browning set, she immediately reached out and offered me a platform to write about FREAKS for the Disability Visibility Project. She took people seriously and fought for them.
