@geekygimp @maria_m_town OMG. Seriously?!?! So sorry I'm just reading this. Let me know how/if I can help shine a light on this issue. Ugh.

[Bridget Hayman @Wheelygrl]

@erichbergen Me too!

Hey Chicago- it’s extremely cold, snowy and icy out there. Be careful! @AccessLiving has a number of cold weather resources that may be helpful. https://t.co/fBo3iQGa0k

Too many property owners are failing to #PlowTheSidewalks. Disabled people need accessible and safe #pedestrian access 365 days a year.

[Bridget Hayman @Wheelygrl]

@emily_ladau Ugh.

[Bridget Hayman @Wheelygrl]

@paigeworthy Sending you both a hug. :(

[Bridget Hayman @Wheelygrl]

@emily_ladau Wooo hooo!!!!

[Bridget Hayman @Wheelygrl]

So sad "Love, Charlie: The Rise and Fall of Chef Charlie Trotter" is sold out virtually tonight. You'd have my $ tonight @chifilmfest if you were clearer about limited availability. I watched 2 films today & would've watched more. Virtual options rock! Thanx 4 that!

Access Living adds its voice in support of access to abortions for all people who need and choose them, including people with disabilities. Supporting access to abortions is supporting equal access to health services we all need and deserve.

PSA: Please don't use accessibility overlays. Just...take our word for it, ok? They're terrible. They make accessibility WORSE. They make your website HARDER TO USE. If they were shoes they'd be hole-riddled FLIPFLOPS. #a11y

I'll never forget 9/11. Thanks to @BethFinke for the prompt that inspired this piece and to all who supported me in sharing my personal perspective.

@planetanel @JordanAbudayyeh Absolutely right! Well done. I was in the room and impressed and grateful for your mad skills.

[State Senator Robert Peters @senpetersil]

Shout out to @RepKellyCassidy and @AccessLiving for the tireless work that went into passing this legislation.

I also want to give special thanks to Renee Watts, whose brother Stephon was shot by police while he was suffering a mental health crisis.

@JWPascale Wanted to point out the challenges @DrAngelLove is having getting wheelchair accessible cabs in DC. Interested in covering? https://t.co/cSrMZOPWTX

[Disability Rights Education & Defense Fund @DREDF]

MEDIA: DO YOU HAVE A #DISABILITY or know someone who does? Has the #Covid19 #pandemic made access to medical care, vaccines, support services, or employment more difficult? @chrisegusa & @kalw want your #CovidDisabilityStories to inform future reporting! https://t.co/gSUmVh2fQB

[Bridget Hayman @Wheelygrl]

@emily_ladau I have pre-ordered. Seeing you holding your book is absolutely the most exciting thing! Congratulations

I really wish this @latimes opinion piece about Naomi Osaka and disability rights was by a Black and/or Asian woman with mental health disabilities. Perspective, culture & nuance matters

@APStylebook Can I love this twice?

[Bridget Hayman @Wheelygrl]

I had no idea this was why Anthony Hopkins was not on hand to accept his Academy award. The fact that the Academy would not allow him to use zoom is simply ridiculous.
