so I know I make salty posts sometimes about how any activism that doesn't include # ppl sucks

but I also post about how "do better!!" without any actual suggestions is p much useless

so, probably time for me to be Not A Hypocrite & post some concrete suggestions about how to make online and offline spaces better, safer & more accessible for disabled people

this will prob focus mostly on my own experiences/needs so would LOVE to hear suggestions from other disabled ppl

I challenge anyone who's fedi experience is improved because of image, GIF, video, or audio captions to take the time to personally thank at least 3 different people each week for describing their media!
Should it be expected at this point? Yes in most cases I think so. But reminding people that taking the time to do it is making a tangible positive impact, and causing others to see the social benefits at the same time is a great way to encourage people to do it more.
If you can't find many examples on your personal feed, just use the media only filter on your local and federated timelines; they shouldn't be too hard to find after that!

She's chronically ill and really struggling to make ends meet at the moment. Whether you throw a few bucks her way or just pass on her gallery page to others, every little bit is helping.
