Disabled, AuDHD. Trying to get by in life. (mostly he/him) Just a ghost of the person I could have been.

our lives as disabled people are inherently political.

You have to use a sustainability analysis. You don't measure disability by PB values.

This. Know what you will do. I know what I will do because I know what I have done. The physical and social consequences I endured pale in comparison to the physical and psychological harms I prevented (to someone who was a stranger at the time).

It is unbelievably painful to watch people go to the mat for AI having feelings and deserving rights when they aren’t convinced disabled people are sentient and deserve dignity.

This goes back way further than the current "AI" hype train, but I've often felt that the more "user friendly" they make a computer the harder it becomes to do anything with it.

Stop being transactional in your relationships! Relationships are interactive not transactional.

When disability happens to you, you won’t be able to just “try harder”. The social supports you think magically appear? They won’t show up. The medical system will let you down. Friends & family will abandon you. You will realize disability advocates were right all along.

The spoken aspirations of people, from the worker to the CEO, used to be, "retire early, travel, and leave something for the family." People earned money for how what they could do with it. Now the conversation is about the amount instead of it's function. A symptom of the problem.

Not shutting up about disability accessiblities became part of my brand at my last job. I was known as the guy with the reference resources to help when someone needed accomodations. I like to think there are several people that I helped actually keep their jobs without burning out.

Symptoms that would send you to the ER are just another Tuesday for those of us with chronic illness. I also guarantee whatever suggestion you have for us we've already looked into. Unless you live with chronic illness, you do not have the context to comprehend our day to day. Just believe us.

There are two schools of thought: 1. Make it easier for someone to produce the outcome you want 2. Make it harder for someone to produce an outcome you don't want Why do employers, parents, and governments triple down on option 2 and rarely support option 1?

Starting malicious compliance at work. I could help them not break absolutely everything by assisting in the automation tools to replace me and my peers, but instead, I'll do exactly what I'm told and watch it burn. Hopefully, before they fire us all. Because our jobs require human judgment, not AI

The longer I live, the more I think about it, the more I'm convinced that "profit" is a very evil word. If there is profit, either you failed to compensate the laborers or you overcharged the customers, probably both. If your business can't grow without exploitation then it shouldn't fucking grow.

ISpecter @ispecter.bsky.social · 25/02/2026
It's the exploitation that's the problem, not the technology. There is tech whose foundation and/or purpose is exploitation, but most tech is created to help people. Then capitalism gets ahold of it and turns it into yet another way to exploit people, the earth, and whatever they can get away with.

The last couple of posts I've seen look to be written by someone else (good ghost writing attempts, but still not quite his voice). More of the Epstein files have been released. Does it seem to anyone else that maybe he isn't in functional health anymore? Or maybe that's just wishful thinking.

Whistles really hurt, actually painful to experience. BUT I will endure that pain 1000 times if someone's life is saved by it even once. I know the pain isn't actually harming me other than stress response, and there are much greater things causing a stress response than a painful sound.

Just because it wasn't happening to you doesn't mean it wasn't happening. You just believed all the buzzwords that made it the victim's fault. The difference now is that the victims look like you.

Casual reminder that a bill must pass *both* the House and the Senate (and get signed by POTUS) to become law. The DHS / ICE appropriations bill passed the House. It still needs to pass the Senate with 60 votes. That vote will be *NEXT WEEK* Call your Senators.🔥📞🔥

🧵 A story of Autistic medical trauma: Many studies talk about how Autistic people can have a hypo & hyper sensitivity to pain. This results in professionals blowing us off as either dramatic or "not in enough pain". Many of us want to stop seeking medical attention after a while because of it.

You could do a couple of things with this information. Assuming you don't have 60 publicly disclosed autistic employees, you can assume the org doesn't feel psychologically safe enough to disclose and start considering ways to change this from a grassroots level.

Don't stop this momentum. Keep going, even in your small ways of resistance. See how much you can stretch that effort and if there's anything more you can do because this affects ALL of us and we all need to take a role. Not everyone is a fighter. Some are organizers. Some make signs. Some donate.

So many people having the wrong arguments and conversations right now. Before you lash out at someone, maybe examine who you're really angry at. You should be angry right now. You should have been angry yesterday. I was and have been for a while. Direct your anger where it belongs.
