@KamiiKahzi She wasn't disagreeing with you. @ekverstania was agreeing with you wholeheartedly and using your excellent post to make a point. She just wanted you to know that. 😷

Dropped off my self portraits 😛🤭

@KGo8675308 @dom_lucre Well, well, well. @ekverstania replied to you, then you posted this and blocked HER. She didn't block you. Are you afraid that she may bring evidence that you're talking nonsense? x.com/i/status/20577…

@dom_lucre LOL she posted that, then blocked me - afraid I would actually supply evidence? All you gotta do is read, dummy. Read Trump funding "Historically Black Colleges" and read about "Economic Opportunity Zones" your leftists lie to you. Like BLM, they dont actually do shit to help.

@VMansell42652 @tanja_said @Monica55dzrh I do not know what form of AAC her son uses or whether her son drew that, but what I can say is that there are many nonspeaking people who want us to #ListenToNonspeakers. See what Damon Kirsebom says in this video. youtu.be/H7dca7U7GI8?si…

@tanja_said @Monica55dzrh That was my question too ?

My non verbal son drew this at home, He asked me to show all of you.

@KShabby16334956 Many of the people who are wearing them do so because they have conditions such as these that render them particularly vulnerable to worsened symptoms and extreme disability if they should fall ill. x.com/i/status/19603…

@KShabby16334956 Here's how that type of mask works. youtu.be/eAdanPfQdCA?si…

Anyone still wearing a mask like that has serious issues that have nothing to do with Long covid. Sorry, but that guy is seriously mentally ill.

As we mark World #AutismAwarenessDay and step into Autism Awareness Month, this year’s theme, “Autism and Humanity — Every Life Has Value,” reminds us that every autistic person deserves respect, dignity, and opportunity. The Persons with Disabilities Act, 2025, for the very first time in Kenya, recognises and protects the rights of the neurodiverse community, including individuals on the autism spectrum. This month, I urge every household and community to learn, understand, and include. Don’ shun what you don’t yet understand. Scan the QR code to read the full Act. #VIP

@TxRecon1 @binsaleh143 @libsoftiktok Many transgender people are persecuted. It is against the law in some African countries. The cruelty against trans people is real. In some countries it's safer.

@binsaleh143 @libsoftiktok How's the Trans Day of Visibility going over there in Africa? Doing big numbers these days?

This is Rachel Crandall-Crocker who invented “Trans Day of Visibility.” Any questions?

It's never “just” anxiety.

Disabled doesn't mean the same as 'unable'. Disabled doesn't mean you can't do anything at all. It also doesn't mean you're worse than everyone else at everything. You may even be better than most people at some things, and still be disabled. 4/
