I guess Taco Bell thinks that a great place to place their advertising signs is right in the middle of the only curb lift. Greg was the one who noticed first. #thisisnotaccessibility #tacobell #accessibility #wheelchairusers #disabledparking (at Taco Bell) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpvB3Kfh983/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=pmw1lh5mv5zv

Me: *sends email to all professors reminding them to use captions on any videos shown in class* *goes to class* Prof: We're listening to a podcast today! Me: ...Is there a transcript? Prof: No, why? Me: So I can look at it and track the words so I process them correctly. Prof: (without looking at the webpage to see) No, we'll just have to make do. You should come sit by me because we're using the laptop speakers today. Me: *Stares at her, deciding how much energy I want to expend on this right now*
This photo was taken by my friend. Portland Police should definitely know better than to park in a disabled parking loading zone. NO EXCUSES. This is NOT about the cop. I love our service men & women. This is about taking up a loading zone that disabled people need & creating a safety issue. #thisisnotaccessibility #accessibility #accessible #wheelchairusers #loadingzone #disabledparking #handicappedparking #wheelchairparking #safety #portland #oregon #portlandpolicebureau #parking #ada #setanexample #adaviolations @portlandpolice @fredmeyerstores (at Fred Meyer) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0jybeZHy_T/?igshid=fhy7z9u0mvrq
The women's bathroom at REI store in downtown Portland. The soap is placed very far back & up high. They have seemed to try to fix this by adding a step stool...that even if I had been able to use, I still would not have been able to reach the soap. I was unable to wash my hands in this bathroom. Not only is that gross, but ridiculous. Move the soap dispenser closer. Then you don't need a step stool, which is a safety hazard in a place of business anyway...not that people in wheelchairs can even use it. The good thing about this bathroom is that the stall size was perfect for a wheelchair & I could reach the sink. #rei #accessibility #thisisnotaccessibility #adaviolations #ada #portland #oregon #wheelchairusers #safety #hygiene (at REI) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0jwiLpnTuQ/?igshid=jt0e3jhuycrf
Dear profs who chastise, belittle, or begrudge latecomers. You might think that what you are doing is encouraging promptness, that your methods work to dissuade tardiness and emphasize respect for you and the class. What you are doing is effectively telling disabled and poor students (and, statistically, often racialized, queer and/or trans students) that your class is not for them.
You are telling them that you don't care if they're up the night before, either working a late shift, finishing an assignment, providing care for others or working on healing themselves. You are telling them that your desires, and the desires of others more able, more secure, are more important than their own learning. You are effectively telling many of your students that you'd rather they stay home, disengage, drop out, than have the audacity to walk into class late.
Today, I have chosen to stay home. After weeks of facing this professor head on (unsurprisingly, the very same one who gave a fit after I asked for a break in his 3 hour lecture), I have chosen to prioritize myself. To care for myself. To listen to my hurting body, my exhaustion and my anxiety. To recognize my pain as a sign that I need to slow down, step back, and engage with the material in ways which are actually accessible to me.
I choose to stay home today, to read the slide-show online and to get notes from a friend, to take the time to make breakfast and catch up on my household chores, to get my work done from a place which does not push me beyond my own capacities.

Uh, wow, this event listing from The ADA Legacy Project is (ironically) an accessibility nightmare.
This has been brought to you by my trying and failing three times to click on the District of Columbia from my tablet, even after zooming to a ridiculous level. The same problem will also manifest for mobility-impaired mouse users, especially looking for events in smaller states.
And that's not the worst. No, for that, you need to use a keyboard or switch to navigate the page. The script they're using to highlight the map only responds to mouseover/mouseout events, not keyboard focus/blur, so the only way to tell which state is under the cursor is to look at the URL in the status bar. And the tab ordering makes no sense whatsoever, in terms of either geography or naming. (Massachusetts, for just one example, is just after Tennessee and just before North Carolina.)
(And yes, I did tweet at them about this.)
There is this very helpful ramp.... except it’s like 4 inches off the ground that my wheelchair would never get up on or off. #ThisIsNotAccessibility
