Work from home has been a huge boon to employment access for disabled people.

“The jobless rate for disabled workers — typically in double digits and 12.3% two years ago — dropped to 5.8% in November … the lowest rate for people with disabilities since record-keeping began in 2008.”

People with disabilities reap benefits of surge in telework

The COVID-19 pandemic's silver lining for people with disabilities: a lot more remote work opportunities. Will it last?

We found out what really happened in the stalking incident Elon Musk cited to ban @elonjet and a bunch of journalists. This is the story we were asking Musk about on Twitter when he suspended @taylorlorenz. (I'm still suspended!) https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2022/12/18/details-of-musk-stalking-incident/
Musk blamed a Twitter account for an alleged stalker. Police see no link.

The incident last week underscored how Elon Musk’s personal concerns can influence his governance of a social media platform used by hundreds of millions of people.

Feeling like @oneunderscore__ is not long for the bird app. His feed is full of links to his other social sites. He is one of the most important journalists to follow in these dystopian hell times. He keeps track of the worst of the internet so we don't have to. Highly recommend you follow him here or elsewhere.

I'm still trying to figure out how to make it to Friday without feeling like I'm moving through wet cement.
