Three years ago today, the day before my 31st birthday, I launched the Accessible Social website. Since then, more than 110,000 people worldwide have visited the site, representing nearly every country on the planet.
I couldn't be prouder of Accessible Social and the many people it has helped. 🎉

i know this is a generalization with many exceptions but i’m specifying daughters because: 1) i’m Going Through It right now and this applies to me specifically. 2) in my personal life, i tend to only see siblings who grew up socialized as daughters assume this role.

if something like heaven exists, i think there is a special place for daughters who end up being the main/sole caregiver for elderly family members.

With the death of Microsoft Windows 10 about 7 months away, you have an opportunity to a) break with the US tech broligarchs at Microsoft and b) save a pile of money by not racing out to buy a new computer and instead installing a version of GNU/Linux instead on your old computer.
