      And I can't forget the common ableist practice of disability groups listing committee/board members where all nondisabled people are listed with degrees+affilitations+job titles and all disabled people only as "self-advocate" regardless of credentials.https://twitter.com/autistichoya/status/1072354856118206467 …

      I've been dropped off committees, denied grants, had doors shut in my face, been screamed at+cornered/loomed over, gotten death threats, been shut out of groups that had previously (lied when) welcomed me, lied about, had my work exploited. Still here. https://twitter.com/autistichoya/status/1072353851074854912 …
