Creating a list of disabled/crip folks on the Mastodon fediverse for people who want to find disabled folks/disability researchers to follow. It includes people who are disabled and those who work on disability/crip theory/access, so the form includes an optional response for self-identification as disabled/crip.

Here is the link to the spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1CXV-tTb5oH7x8JCVZ54avofzVgyMPpy5T63Haq0ND0A/edit?usp=sharing

Feel free to share/add yourself to the form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdRANUuut4hJbnNGLyZQG5uiQVgrZg18ti2yAW-39zxCmhnSA/viewform?usp=sf_link

@kavana Just so I don't step into a space that's not intended for me... Does your definition of disability include neurodivergence? ("No" is a perfectly acceptable answer!)
@MxAlba absolutely yes! :)
@MxAlba will edit the form and sheet to explicitly include, if that helps. Thanks for pointing it out :)
@kavana That's awesome, thank you! 
@kavana cheers, think I've added myself
@kavana Commenting so I’ll remember to come back and do this. Thanks so much!
@anoosh FYI, you can bookmark or favorite posts to come back to them later! The star icon is favorite, which tells the poster you favorited the post, and the bookmark icon is a rectangle with a triangle taken out of the bottom. Some of the apps seem not to support these functions, so you might not see them depending on the app you're using, but they're available on the web app.
@kavana May I share this on Twitter -- I have over 24,000 followers on there and a big portion of that are from the disability community. I also have a Community on Twitter with almost 700 disabled folks. It's okay to say no! Just wanting to help folks find each other. Great idea. Thank you for doing it.
@ahreaume @kavana someone had mentioned the list falling into the hands of bad actors so double check on policy
@jaskot @ahreaume hey! Sorry I only just saw this - I'm a little uncertain at the moment given this - do you know where or what happened? Or was it that someone mentioned that it could? Thanks
@kavana Apologies. Ignore my edit request. I just saw the link to the form.
@kavana Do you mind sharing your reasoning behind using "crip" language? I think I missed that conversation and I want to understand. Are we taking back the slur or something? (I'm disabled, but not wrt to mobility.)
@corbden sure! The term crip is being reclaimed by disabled people, paralleling the term queer in the lgbtq+ community - an attempt to take pride in the disabled identity. There is also an academic move towards what is called "crip theory" that challenges ideas of what is "normal", which is also called "cripping" something, where crip becomes a verb. You can reclaim it if you identify as disabled, doesn't have to be mobility 😊
@kavana This is amazing; thank you for sharing!
@kavana Use #hashtags to help people find you. Mastodon does searches on hashtags - not full text.
@JDignum im aware of the search restriction; the post does have hashtags though - I usually do hashtag posts where relevant.
