@Rahmonix12456 I'm one of Niamh's friends, her other friend started the gofundme for her.

Help Niamh get the medical care she desperately needs https://t.co/PMvifTERwm

Niamh is one of the kindest people I've ever met and she's an international level wheelchair basketball player. She deserves to get her life back and play the sport she loves again! 🏀🏀

[Dr Katharine Hubbard @KEHplantsci]

New paper! This in @CBELifescied a real journey into unfamiliar but important topics around disability, ableism and influence of eugenics on bioscience education. A brilliant partnership with the awesome @SarahMarieDS who has taught me a lot! https://t.co/EBESE6Y98R

Adult friendships require GRACE. They’re not ignoring you or “being weird” they’re battling something mentally. It’s not always personal because they couldn’t make your birthday. I’m sure they wanted to but finances maybe made it not possible. You have to think beyond just you.

I wish there were more average sized arms represented in mainstream media for women. My body dysmorphia has been going crazy because I feel like my arms need to be half the size they are currently?
We’ve glamorized these skinny arms that, for most of us, can only be achieved if you’re a literal adolescent.

The state of Tennessee does not require a permit to carry a firearm. Doesn’t matter if it’s a rifle, a shotgun, or a handgun.
Doesn’t matter whether you carry openly or concealed.
They don’t care.
But if you’re a mom, in a courtroom, protesting gun violence, and you’re holding a sign them good ol’ boys just don’t like… guess what — you’re going to jail.
This is NOT what Democracy looks like. So we fight.
And moms WILL win.
Because when it comes to keeping our kids safe, there is no other option.

can’t believe I have one wild & precious life and I’m spending it terrified to answer an email

I wanna talk about the disabled angels: there's so many 'in heaven they will finally be free of their wheelchair' and 'they will be made whole again in heaven' narratives around disabled people, so to see visibly disabled angels means everything, thank you @neilhimself #GoodOmens

[Dr Katharine Hubbard @KEHplantsci]

New paper out! @PLOSONE Study led by @DominicCHenri shows students project implicit bias onto Harvard style references, but including photographs of and full names of authors on slides (B below) helps to increase representation of #diversity in #STEM https://t.co/h95161qqqK

Hi just want to say a person’s very existence cannot be “against your beliefs.” That is called bigotry. Thanks.

Gentle (for now) PSA to anyone who may review or cover my book: Jerry is disabled. Not differently-abled. Not handicapable. Not diversely abled. Not any other cutesy euphemism and especially, for the love of all that is holy, not "special needs." You can say it. She's disabled.

@owojeloche thought of this

[Josh Trebach, MD @jtrebach]

toxicologist here to remind you that essential oils are not essential for anything

the word "essential" in "essential oils" refers to the fact that the oil contains the ESSENCE (the smell) of the plant it comes from

Shane Grice asked the police for help. Her ex-boyfriend was stalking her and she was afraid.

She went to them 5x. The worse than nothing the police did was to fine her for wasting their time.

Her ex murdered her.
