This is appalling. Systems failure yes, but also a simple lack of people showing any kind of care for another person. /despicable to leave someone in that position. www.rnz.co.nz/news/regions... #accessibikity #discrimination #transport #disability

On Oct. 29, a federal judge ruled that CMS exceeded its authority when it added an extra hurdle to Medicaid’s “medically frail” exemption. The fight isn’t over, but happy to have a win to share! Join us!

These essays touch on issues of #disability & #ChronicIllness in addition to #neurodiversity, so I especially recommend Rare Good to friends dealing with one (or all) of these things in relation to art-making and living a life well-rooted in the more-than-human world. I can't stop thinking about it.
I've been reading Rare Good by @the-big-quiet.bsky.social this week on my morning coffee breaks. It's an inspiring, humane, necessary book on creativity, community, and the writing craft, with incisive reflections on reading and writing from neurodiverse perspectives. Please don't miss this one.

Getting a diagnosis is ultimately a personal choice when it’s not forced on you, and people deserve the grace and benefit of the doubt that comes with identity comfort, safety, and accessibility. Be kind to people, and try not to make assumptions.

'Contrary to law': Judge strikes down Trump admin's definition of 'medically frail' in Medicaid work requirements
The guidance released in June "is beyond the powers of CMS and thus contrary to law," the federal judge in Boston said.
