The New York Times obit for Alice Wong doesn’t mention Covid or Gaza
It ignores two of her biggest causes because of political bias
Alice fought tirelessly for Covid mitigations
She fought for the people of Gaza
She rightfully reminded us that the genocide in Gaza is a disability justice issue

It's quite a thing to witness people requesting morality and be answered by a shrug and someone saying rules are rules.
We need to recognize that the rules don't serve targeted groups and are often used to attack them. That's a sign the rules need to be changed.

For the Disability community, losing Alice Wong is like losing Ursula Le Guin or Octavia Butler. She was a powerhouse, a pioneer, and a mentor to many. She taught me so much. And always reminded me what we were fighting towards, as well as against. I miss her clarity, bravery, and joy.
Alice Wong
Alice Wong had an outsized impact on Disability justice. As a community organiser, activist, mentor, and co-conspirator, as writer, editor, and friend, she is irreplaceable.

Usually my neuro's office manager & I get on the phone together and yell until they pay, but this might be fun for us. And annoying for UHC.
I don't know who needs to know this, but Pro Publica has an online thing that will format a letter to your US health insurance company to demand the records behind a claim denial. (which the insurance is then legally required to provide in most cases)

Antisemitism is a lot like Qanon child abuse conspiracies in that there’s this real and bad phenomenon and, parallel to that, what can only be described as a large scale mass psychosis about a mostly fictional version of the same phenomenon

My heart is breaking today. My life and the lives of my kids have been destroyed. Our tent collapsed due to the rain and wind, and now we are homeless on the street, suffering from the cold and hunger. We need $400 to buy a tent

I like to pretend winter holiday magic exists, too, but the worse things get the more we extend the feel-good holidays, and it's getting weird now.
We go from Summer Halloween to Fall/Winter Christmas. What pretend happy holiday(s) are we going to fill January through May with?

I met Alice through #Disbility twitter when it was completely new to me but our communities were still together there.
Alice had zero ego. She is friendly, compassionate, a force of nature.
We had fun convos, hard convos. She was really good at giving advice, listening.
