Just learned about this really cool theme park in Texas specifically designed for kids with disabilities. Apparently this guy was having tons of trouble finding a theme park able to accommodate his daughter Morgan who has multiple disabilities. Eventually, he soled his successful business and spent $50,000,000 to build his own.
It's got 25 different attractions, tons of events, thousands of positive reviews ETC.

We've been here for a while now but maybe now is a good time to make another #introduction!

We are an automedia #film collective. Our film "Radical Resilience" is about burnout and #resilience in #activism. Here you can see the trailer:
kolektiva.media/videos/watch/4…

Contact us at radicalresilience @riseup.net if you want to see the whole Film or organise a screening. We also offer Workshops based on the Film (online or otherwise).

At the moment we are working on a new film about #Disability, chronic illness, and activism.

On our blog radicalresilience.noblogs.org you cant find Resources about the aforementioned subjects as well as our zine "Caring Movements: Chronic Illness and Activism".

Here on Mastodon we toot and boost mostly in English or German.


In searching for an instance to join, I noticed that many do not mention ableism in their ToC. I care about avoiding ableist language, so I picked one that did mention it.

I do notice quite a bit of ableist language in the larger fediverse, so decided to write a blog post of common objections to avoiding ableist language, and my responses to them.

Here it is: medium.com/@kavanaram/avoid-ab…

Hi there :raccoonblob_peek1:

I'm working on a photography project about segregated total institutions for disabled people in Germany.

I'm talking to people who live at these places or did in the past. I need film, lab and scanning costs + whatever my interview partners and models need.

I'm doing this from a disabled perspective. I know these places very well since childhood, but I was lucky enough to not have been forced into living in one of them until now (let's hope it stays that way).

I'm doing mostly analogue photography and I can not afford the cost of it myself. I also want to make sure the people I work with have everything they need. Like transport, accessibility things and if I do find people willing to be in the photographs themselves, I want to pay them.

Can you help me out? :blob_raccoon_blueheart:
