Okay Bluesky, we know how important it is to name and #shame intolerant and toxic people. We need a word for people intolerant of those on the #Autism spectrum. It needs to end in the suffix “-phobe.” Give me some ideas. #autistic #help #ableism #actuallyautistic #intolerance #autismawareness

"Why don't you just apply for a grant?"

IMLS Inspire! Grants for Small Museums. $5K-$50K. For museums with budgets under $250K. My operation is definitely under $250K. But "individual" isn't a museum, regardless of how many filmstrips have come through. Federal tax dollars. #preservation #archives
