    Can Pixar hurry up and make Petson and Clip-Clop star in an animated film with laughs, emotion, and a coming of age journey.
    This is Petson and his clip clop friend. They’re late for the park and Petson is a little frustrated with the lack of urgency. Still 13/10 for both

    Who is in charge of these decisions? I just want to know who at Niantic is so against Accessibility. I just want to talk. Who hurt you?

    A remote workplace is an accessible workplace. Organizations denying remote work when it's been proven to work for many roles are practicing forms of ableism... 🙅🏼‍♂️

    Fun fact: Pokémon is my earliest memory, seeing the anime when I was 2. I’m seeing the 20th Anniversary movie tonight! #PokemonIChooseYou
    Promotional cards for the movie. A Pokémon trading card game card of Ash’s Pikachu. A Pikachu wearing Ash’s iconic hat from the anime and playing with a feather of a legendary Phoenix Pokémon.
    The moves Pikachu on the card knows are I choose You, and Thunderbolt. The cards rest on a table.

    .@DavidDobrik if you ever wanna buy me a car feel free... I mean like I’m blind but still feel free. Maybe take me somewhere I won’t get in trouble driving ?

    Friendly reminder, let's stop saying we "overcame disability" if the individual literally is still disabled. We work in collaboration with our disabilities in the majority of cases where we achieve things. What we overcame were ableist expectations or inaccessible barriers.

    👨🏼‍🦯♿️🛴 Please don't be the person who left this scooter like this. The tactile is so Blind people have a clear path of the sidewalk and know where they are. Instead, I've been tripping over these scooters. If I could have it my way, this litter wouldn't even be legal.
    On a street corner during the daytime, from James' first-person perspective. Rental scooters are scattered on the sidewalk. A scooter is left in the pathway of a white tactile sidewalk. James' white cane is seen extended to the ground.

    💭 Did you know a DeafBlind person could be watching your videos on YouTube? Screen readers can transcribe your video's transcription into braille for those who use a braille display with their computer or smartphone. ✅ Ensure your videos are accurately closed captioned!

    This is called Ableism. They're ableist. Discrimination people with disabilities face every day. I wish society took it much more seriously like other forms of discrimination. These juveniles are disgusting and I hope when people take ableism seriously this comes back to haunt em
