Blind, ADHD. Autistic. Non-binary. Demi-sexual. HSFF fan. Any pronouns are fine.
If you have only been following US media for the last 10.5 months and not making an effort to follow coverage in Middle East new sources, you are not getting an accurate accounting of what is happening.

Disabled people aren’t chronically online because it’s our first choice.
Disabled people are chronically segregated from society courtesy of inaccessibility, rampant ableism, rigged systems, productivity culture, etc.
