For my disabled comrades who work - what do you wish your manager and team knew?

@xkcd.com what would the world be like now if we had never discovered how to harness electricity? Would we have incredibly complex mechanical computers, would steam supercars be a thing, would the worlds biggest company make candles, would we have exhausted fossil fuels?

On Bluesky and LinkedIn, the hashtag #accessibility allows you to find lots of accessibility-related resources. To find accessibility resources in Spanish, use the hashtag #accesibilidad. The hashtag #accessibilité helps you find resources in French.

It's interesting and encouraging that this sort of educational programme exists, but this needs to be taught in every school and college, not just at university level in very few universities: iadp.ahs.illinois.edu #accessibility #AccessibilityRegulations
