We need your help! The 2020 federal budget eliminated funding for services for those with print disabilities. The decision was made without consultation or advance warning. See https://t.co/hLPf6gUrKX to learn how to help us restore this funding #RestoreFundingforAccessibleBooks

The COVID-19 pandemic is having a disproportionate impact on those with disabilities. Now is not the time to defund services for those with print disabilities. @CQualtro @cafreeland @RaquelDancho @Daniel_Blaikie @BCLibrariesCoop

As a blind reader who relies on accessible matterials for employment, social inclusion, and education from @nnelsca, I am deeply disappointed that @CQualtro would allow funding to be cut for critical services like collection expansion. #RestoreAccessibleBookFunding

RIP @ChickCorea, legendary pianist, master of technique and composition whose melodies reached down and grabbed our collective souls. You will be missed but your legacy lives on in the countless musicians who were influenced by your magic. Here are the first few bars of SPAIN.

@TSReid @ChanceyFleet @ImTiffanyYu @HabenGirma @corycachola @NitikaChopra @AmyPurdyGurl @iamweshamilton @KunalSood @cur8able @farbstein @itsLOLOlove @joinClubhouse Great news, everyone. The latest Clubhouse update has a lot of VoiceOver accessibility improvements. This should improve accessibility for Voice Control and Switch Control users as well. They still have work to do, but this is a great start!

[Matthew Cooper @matt02392]

Good to hear at the @joinclubhouse townhall today that they are actively working on Voiceover accessibility and we can expect substancial fixes in the next 2 weeks. Let's show them support and keep giving them constructive feedback. It's clearly working.

Just got a @joinClubhouse invite!
My welcome didn't last too long.
The app has buttons that could be labeled for screen readers, but aren't;
and Voiceover users seem to have no way to edit our profiles.
Inaccessible code is digital redlining that keeps us out of communal spaces.

9 Years ago yesterday, we lost my favorite commedian of all time. The funniest person in the room anywhere he was, the most shamelessly honest, and a huge fucking human full of energy and wisdom.
I miss you @BIGMOMMAPRODS. No one will ever touch this guy's brilliance in comedy!

This is an accurate thread everyone. Being visually impaired or blind limits unskilled work to mostly telephone customer care jobs. Employers preach inclusivity, but only a handful follow through.
