 Back in the day, we could buy stuff, and we'd own it without a subscription. 

Can't believe we got away with making a trade without basically always owing money on something for the rest of our lives. 
 Every person working in accessibility has days where they feel emotionally, mentally, and spiritually drained.

To be in a work environment while trying to dismantle systemic ableism, especially while experiencing disability and chronic illness of your own, is a deeply challenging thing. 
 If your accessibility work is not intersectional then it’s upholding white supremacist values.
