I'm so glad they recommended it for all ages. Get boosted and wear an n95 mask, folks! This surge isn't looking good.

Hm... I'd actually disagree with that conclusion? I think what the author is saying there is that ableism isn't simply a matter of the words being used. A statement that treats disabled people as subhuman isn't okay because it avoids using these words - it's still ableist.

From the beginning of the article (emphasis mine):

Note that only some of the words on this page are actually slurs. Many of the words and phrases on this page are not generally considered slurs, and in fact, may not actually be hurtful, upsetting, retraumatizing, or offensive to many disabled people. They are simply considered ableist (the way that referring to a woman as emotionally fragile is sexist, but not a slur).

Not everyone has the ability to be mindful of how certain language originated in ableism and this reinforces it. But for those of us who can, it's a good idea to try.

Sounds like folks have given a good number of alternatives, but I just wanted to share a resource: "Ableism/Language" by Lydia X. Z. Brown. It goes through a bunch of ableist words and suggests alternatives. :)

The 21 million includes everyone, not just registered voters. Until 2015, I couldn't vote because I wasn't a citizen. Still had to live with the shitty policies that Floridian politicians passed into law.

Quite a few folks have mentioned Outer Wilds, so I'll add the DLC soundtrack. The titular song (Echoes of the Eye) that plays at the end of the DLC makes me burst into tears every time I hear it. But in a good way, haha.

It's not ideal, but I use Patreon to donate to a few different folks at once (I think it still combines transactions to reduce fees...). Otherwise I usually pay the fee, if the amount I'm donating is small and I'm given the choice.
