As always, we ask that in order to participate in the weekly megathread, one self-identifies as some form of disabled, which is broadly defined in the community sidebar:

“Disability” is an umbrella term which encompasses physical disabilities, emotional/psychiatric disabilities, neurodivergence, intellectual/developmental disabilities, sensory disabilities, invisible disabilities, and more. You do not have to have an official diagnosis to consider yourself disabled.

Mask up, love one another, and stay alive for one more week.

        I am reminded of the author of Where the Wild Things are, who commented on the fact that the greatest compliment he ever received on his work was the time that a small child ate a drawing of his. “He saw it, he loved it, he ate it”. There was no thought to the value of an original drawing by a famous illustrator, no thought to anything but the fact that he liked it so much he wanted to consume it.
