Today is Global Accessibility Awareness Day (#GAAD). Today, I want you to ask yourself, then act, before you speak. Do you have an app you're maintaining? Look at some #accessibility resources for the framework you use for the user interface. Do you know if it's accessible or not? If it's not accessible, are you doing anything about it? Do you tell disabled visitors to your app/site that it's not accessible, and give them a timeframe, if any, when it will be? Do you have a website? If so, do you know if it's accessible or not? Are you an artist of any kind? Is your media accessible? Are you a writer? If so, are the images in your book described with #AltText?
If you're a part of a company that has anything to do with accessibility, including proudly posting about it, do you have any disabled employees? If so, do you show them that they're appreciated? If not, why don't you have any? If you create art about people with disabilities, do you have disabled people take a look at it before you share it? If you write books that have images in them, have any disabled people checked to make sure the Alt-text makes sense, and that the book is accessible otherwise? If not, why not? And when you get disabled people to check out apps, books, sites for your professional needs, do you pay them for it?
Please do remember us on every other day of the year, but particularly today, please remember: nothing about us without us.
Throwing this out into the ether on the off-chance:
I have a Green Power Electric Boot Scooter BH220. I need to remove the battery. Green Power won't tell me how as they want to charge for an engineer to come out.
It has a handle and I'm meant to be able to take it inside to charge it. I was shown how to remove it when I first got it, but I can't remember. I can lift w/handle, but it feels stuck at the front end. How do I release it? #Mobility#disabled#MobilityScooter#Repair

Very exhausting but so are most important #justice fights against #government.
I just hope it will help more #POC & #disabled families in future from suffering unnecessary #traumas from #cops & coward #paramedics scared of telling cops to leave a #medical#crisis call when no cops are needed & only making things worse by letting #abusive cops stay around.
$800 needed to stay off the street
$200 to cover Car Insurance that already came out my account
We used pretty much all $800 that Mom gets monthly that would have been used for food to stay off the street to avoid dying in the toxic #ClimateChange heat of our state that's deeply in a #drought
I'm unmarried
I'm not breeding
I'm disabled
I'm a woman
I'm Latina
I'm a displaced #indigenous person
I'm not white
I'm not dark enough to be used as a pawn for their BS game with superficial temporary gains
Anyone who asks the marginalized to keep swollowing the tripe of the bourgeois and using fascists' systems for survival is a damn fucking ignorant privileged #bootlicker
You're next, once the #disabled#BIPOC and #LGBTQ+ are dead the thought control and police will only have you to eat
please help octo! she needs to pay her monthly bills including rent, debt payments, and college expenses. she's struggling with parental abuse. anything helps!
i am genuinly worried about the changes bill shorten wants to introduce to ndis they are being dressed up as “helping disabled people” and “making the ndis more flexible” but its actually reducing how much money plans have and reducing what we can do with funding, treating ndis as a business. not to mention dehumanizing disabled people by requiring regular checkins to prove you are still disabled enough i mean “assess if you still need supports”
urgent! please help vanessa! she lives with her transphobic family. she is poor, #disabled, & needs help with basic necessities and medical treatment. she's unable to get a job. anything helps!

@mutualaid The urgency cannot be overstateed as rent which is due in a week. Please, include 🏘️ in memo so I know where this goes. They've already dealt with eviction threats in the past and they can't deal with this again. Venmo/PayPal: @seelpah / CashApp: $SeelpahC
