No matter what changes in Washington, Section 504 and the Americans with Disabilities Act still protect students with disabilities in K-12 and college from discrimination. Find legal resources at nccsd.ici.umn.edu/clearinghous...

It has been shown again and again that vaccines do not cause autism. The CDC's proposed study is a waste of time and resources that could be spent on research that would actually help autistic people.

Exclusive: U.S. CDC plans study into vaccines and autism, sources say
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is planning a large study into potential connections between vaccines and autism, two sources familiar with the matter told Reuters, despite extensive scientific research that has disproven or failed to find evidence of such links.

As you share Oscars images, memes, screen shots, and more on social media, don't forget alt text. Adding alt text helps everyone using a screen reader, whether they are blind, have low-vision, have a cognitive disability, etc. #Oscars #Oscar #Oscars2025

Capitalization affects how people read hashtags or how people hear them on screen readers. Use #camelCase or #PascalCase in hashtags instead of lowercase. You could have #DoctorWhoRewatch ("Doctor Who Rewatch") or #doctorwhorewatch ("doctor whore watch.")

Pasadena Humane (remember their cute Rose Parade float last week?) urgently needs donations to care for abandoned and injured animals. They are right on the front lines of the Eaton fire. If you're watching the news and feeling helpless, here's a way to help! give.pasadenahumane.org/give/264243/...

As someone on SSDI I can't tell you how it hurts to listen to people speak about Social Security and Medicare but fail to mention the populations who subsist on these programs: Seniors: 77.8% Survivors: 11.2% People w/Disabilities: 11% It's very crucial in our messaging to ensure EVERYONE is seen.
