@gailsimone.bsky.social does Gotham have good paratransit? Airlines notoriously break chairs and refuse to replace or repair them. Did she ever try to fly after becoming a chair user? #oracle #batgirl #barbaragordon #disabilityrep #disabilityrepresentation

@gailsimone.bsky.social what kind of wheel covers did Babs use? Was her manual a folding or rigid frame? Since she was a paraplegic, how did she feel about security pat downs? #oracle #bathirl #disabilityrepresentation #disabilityrep

@gailsimone.bsky.social wheelchair vans are notoriously expensive. Did Bruce buy her one? He could probably have bought her one new, right? What kind of customizations did Babs have on her chair(s)? Did she have a cup holder and a phone mount? #oracle #barbaragordon #batgirl #disabilityrep

@gailsimone.bsky.social hi, some questions. Before Barbara Gordon was miraculously healed, how much dump did she have in her chair seat? Did she use a Ti ultralight or did Lucius design her s/thing better? Did she have a power chair w/ lift for shelving books at the library? #oracle #disabilityrep 🧵

A North Island Robin, one of the friendliest birbs on the planet. Completely fearless, and often too close to photograph.

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1k/month. A year later, nearly half had housing.
They also had fewer ER visits, nights spent in a hospital, and jail stays.
The report estimates that this reduction in public service use SAVED the city $589k.

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1,000 a month. A year later, nearly half of participants said they had housing.
Participants in Denver's basic-income program reported having more-secure housing, though results were similar in the trial and control groups.

There are gonna be disabled folks who can't contribute anything to The Cause. They have no money, no energy, no physical ability, no time. They will need to receive and will never be able to give back. You gotta save them, too. Especially them.
Please don't leave disabled people behind in your revolution. Please do not see us as sacrifices for the greater good, or dead weight. Please see our lives as worth saving, too.
