[Posted by Sandy Ho] For those who would like to make a contribution to continue the legacy of her work, Alice's GoFundMe gofundme.com/f/alice-wong-s…
Yellow background with black text reads "Statement From Alice Wong's family: Alice Wong passed away on Friday, November 14th at UCSF Hospital due to an infection. She was 51 years old. Alice lived in San Francisco and grew up in Indiana. Alice was the daughter to Henry and Bobby. The elder sister to Emily and Grace. The cat mom to Bert and Ernie, and a dear friend to many. She will be remembered as being a fierce luminary in disability justice, a brilliant writer, editor and community organizer. Her work can be found at Disability Visibility Project. As we mourn the incomprehensible loss of Alice, we share the words she gifted us with from her memoir, Year of the Tiger. “The real gift any person can give is a web of connective tissue. If we love fiercely, our ancestors live among and speak to us through these incandescent filaments glowing from the warmth of memories.” We would like to invite her friends, community, and her many fans to contribute to Alice’s GoFundMe to continue"

Hi everyone, it looks like I ran out of time. I have so many dreams that I wanted to fulfill and plans to create new stories for you. There are a few in progress that might come to fruition in a few years if things work out. I did not ever imagine I would live to this age and end up a writer, editor, activist, and more. As a kid riddled with insecurity and internalized ableism, I could not see a path forward. It was thanks to friendships and some great teachers who believed in me that I was able to fight my way out of miserable situations into a place where I finally felt comfortable in my skin. We need more stories about us and our culture. You all, we all, deserve the everything and more in such a hostile, ableist environment. Our wisdom is incisive and unflinching. I'm honored to be your ancestor and believe disabled oracles like us will light the way to the future. Don't let the bastards grind you down. I love you all.

Autism is also not a bad outcome. I’m autistic! I love it. Most autistic people would rather not be otherwise.

Hey Alexandra! One thing I’ve noticed you do on here for years is antagonize the disability community and then say “but I’m just asking questions”! Autism is genetic.

Why not consider following more prominent disabled accounts?

so i really don’t know … but i did kinda hear about a statistical link between acetaminophen use in pregnancy and autism earlier this year, from a pal who works at a specialized school for kiddos with special needs. it was presented as uncertain but not really a crank view

Every mention of SNAP being frozen should include this simple fact:

TRUMP is CHOOSING TO CANCEL FOOD ASSISTANCE. There are literally emergency dollars available to keep SNAP funded.

You don’t need to be “working” to have the right to food.

Our elders, our children and folks who are disabled and unable to “work”, all deserve to be fed.

Being deemed a productive person under capitalism will not assure you are sheltered, fed and safe. Challenge that always.

Oh heck no. Anti-vaccine disinformation is now making some owners refuse to vaccinate their pets against rabies.

Reminder that 37% of folks on SNAP are elderly and disabled, and oftentimes don’t have the ability to stand outside a food bank for hours and then carry it all home.

If you have a car, offer to give your elders and disabled neighbors a ride to the food bank.

It's deeply dystopian how AI has been billed as an app that will let you make endless videos of Pikachu when the real purpose of AI is mass surveillance in service of a police state. The tech industry has made entertainment the engine of our oppression.

This isn’t about Immigrants. I’mma need y’all to wake up to the dangers ahead. The warp speed in which the surveillance state is being built via AI is frightening, and there’s no opposition in power to willing to stop it.

There’s a whole lot of pneumonia normalizing going down in the mommy group.

‘My kids have it three times a year! Totally normal 🥰’

‘My doctor says it’s viral-induced pneumonia and kids are sick 10-12 times a year. Not to worry! Their immune system will get better. ❤️‍🩹’

NO.
