Trump’s Latest Visa “Pause” Targets 75 Countries He Thinks Are Lazy
Trump’s Latest Visa “Pause” Targets 75 Countries He Thinks Are Lazy
Wrestling with the weight of this counselling degree. Marking is exceptionally rigorous, with results sitting between 60% and 65%. Feedback indicates strong research and depth of reading, yet critiques my critical evaluation for being overly clinical, resembling a formal report rather than a reflective case study.
Practical assessments present significant barriers. I have been penalised for a lack of nodding, despite my blindness and prior discussions with the lecturer regarding the inauthenticity of performing neurotypical non-verbals. Attempting to "learn" the frequency and timing of a visual cue feels forced and performative. Furthermore, the skill expectations appear calibrated for advanced students rather than those in their first three units.
The marking approach is triggering significant trauma related to past invalidation. While I am sitting with these emotions, the path forward is unclear. Accessibility remains a constant battle, from securing basic accommodations to navigating inaccessible Kindle textbooks. I shall complete these units, but my future in this course remains uncertain.

If you're the kind of person who steals accessible parking spots and seats because "nobody was using it", you're a SPECIAL kind of asshole.

Trump’s Latest Visa “Pause” Targets 75 Countries He Thinks Are Lazy
Last Wednesday, the Trump administration “paused” immigrant visa applications for people from 75 countries, mostly in the Global South, on the supposed grounds that people from those countries are of “nationalities at high risk of public benefits usage.” Since the 19th century, the United States has used “public charge” rules to restrict entry, alleging that […]https://murica.website/2026/01/trumps-latest-visa-pause-targets-75-countries-he-thinks-are-lazy/

Disability is not a moral failing.

Liebe #DisabilityRights Community, wir rätseln gerade, ob wir in einem politischen Text zur Solidarität mit "Menschen mit Behinderung" aufrufen oder dasselbe lieber als "Menschen mit geistigen und körperlichen Beeinträchtigungen" formulieren sollten. Ich hatte bisher den Eindruck, dass "Menschen mit Behinderung" politisch (und semantisch) korrekt ist. Gibt es dazu Meinungen? #Disabilities #Ableismus #politically_correct #Sprache :BoostOK:

@SpecialNeedsJungle Adding some hashtags to increase visibility of the above post: #UKpol #disabilityrights #autism #SEND
Special Needs Jungle is a great source of information for any parent of a child with special educational needs (whether diagnosed or not) in the UK, and more broadly for anyone interested in education policy. They deserve more followers in the Fediverse.
Real inclusion isn't an HR policy; it's a legal structure.
Italy's Law 381 created 'Type B' cooperatives specifically to integrate marginalised workers (prisoners, addicts, the disabled) into the economy – not as charity cases, but as worker-owners. I've translated the full statute.
