Thanks for the thread! My rent is coming down to the wire again and I'm not quite 2/7 of the way there.
Any help would make a big difference!

As a long-time admirer of Alice Wong, I’m heartbroken and a bit shaken by her passing. 😢💔
You never think your heroes are going to die, and she was truly a Wonder Woman here on Earth. Alice, you will forever be missed and loved by me and countless others.
Rest in power!

So many gamers don't believe gaming should be for everyone and feel inconvenienced by disabled teammates.

One thing I've noticed an experienced is this.
There are non-disabled people (a lot of them) who believe disabled people shouldn't play games – especially competitive ones, if they can't play well.

Hey everyone. I regularly help run a WishList program for families that don't have much or get much for the holidays.
We have multiple kids/teenagers that need help this year. If you would like to adopt one of them, please let me know.

His worth is thought to be about 3 million.
Often 'net worth' guesses are wrong, because I have some famous friends and they've openly told me what they're worth versus what is reported. (It's generally haha so much lower, the inflation on that shit is amaziballs)

Multiple shows. MULTIPLE. SHOWS.
Reminder that this is a man who worked on 128 episodes of a very popular TV series, and he's got to sell off all of his shit just to afford cancer treatment.
SO, HOW IS THE AVERAGE PERSON SUPPOSED TO?

To honor Alice—and all our disability ancestors—is to keep building that connective tissue she described. To love fiercely, politically, on purpose. To ensure the filaments they left behind continue to glow in us, and through us, long after the world has forgotten their names. We won’t.

Alice helped us see that legacy as ballast. A grounding force. A reminder that none of us are doing this alone, and none of us ever were. The future we fight for is stitched together with the lessons and loves of those who came before.

Disability ancestors aren’t gone; they accompany us. In our organizing, in mutual aid, in the awkward joy of surviving another day that wasn’t designed for us. They’re in every access met, every gentle reminder to slow down, every firm refusal to abandon one another.

Her work was a reminder that memory is not passive. It’s an active practice of tending to the filaments she described—those blazing threads that glow warm with the people who shaped us. To tend them is to extend them. To extend them is to refuse the isolation the system relies on.

Alice showed us how to honor that inheritance: by activating it, by actively practicing the kind of solidarity that keeps us tethered to one another. By making more space, more access, more possibility—especially for those who are told they’re “too much” or “too complicated.”

When we talk about disability ancestors, we’re not talking about some distant, abstract lineage. We’re talking about people who fought, organized, wrote, dreamed, and survived alongside us. People who left us tools, strategies, jokes, tenderness, and a politic were responsible for carrying forward.

Alice reminded us that these bonds are world-making. They are the underground architecture that lets us survive a political order that treats disabled life as disposable. She insisted on holding disabled brilliance close, refusing the erasure capitalism demands.

In disability communities, grief isn’t episodic. It’s cumulative. It layers. It reverberates. We lose people who should’ve had decades more time—because the world is engineered to wear us down. And yet, in that same world, disabled people keep building life with one another anyway.

Alice Wong taught us that disabled people don’t just leave memories behind—they leave infrastructure. Lineages of care. Methods of collectivity, survival. She named the connective tissue that holds our communities together, even across death, even across the losses that come too fast and too often.

$20 received! I'm deeply grateful- it brings me to $195, with about 13 hours left until $700 rent is due.
(I goofed the time in the above post, had 14 hours, but that's very little difference.)
Can you be the next one to chip in? Who can match that last $20, or even send $5?
Please keep sharing!

These are folks who talk over any disabled person they encounter to demonstrate their knowledge of lived disabled experiences. They speak for their children and diminish that child’s existence by inflating their own egos. They brag about their advocacy for the community while they do so so much harm

This being the last post Alice made for herself makes me incredibly sad. We need more spaces for us. We need more places where voices like Alice’s are uplifted so that others can learn from the wisdom that needs to be shared.
It’s been a pleasure working with Lex and everyone in the politics vertical at Teen Vogue. I’m heartbroken that my column, Disability Visibility, is gone. Teen Vogue was one of the few places that published disabled journalists regularly. I just spent the last 2 months working on my next column
I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.
certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.
