No, I think this, you know, this work is the organizing to save Medicaid to stop the attacks on 504 are frightening because the stakes are so high, but there is so much engagement around them and so much. as you said, Nicole, these kind of aha moments, the opportunity to sort of help people understand the ways in which disability and care and disability rights protections fit into their lives.

And that's what I love about doing disability rights work in general. I think there's just so much really rich ground to help people or to be part of people rethinking their own experiences and the experiences of those around them in hopefully, less ableist, more accepting, more comfortable ways.

That's how it has been for me thinking about my own disability over the course of my life has been becoming more comfortable with it as a sort of natural neutral part of the world, which is what disability is.

Yeah, I agree with everything Nicole said. I think on maybe an even smaller level, being connected to knowing the people around you and trying to find out how people may want or need help or support and whether you can provide that. And I want to be really clear that this does not mean if you see a blind person, grab them. That is something that happens. And don't do that. That's not what I mean.

Don't grab people's wheelchairs. Don't do that stuff. Really don't. It happens to them. But talk to people, get to know people, find out what's working for people, what help they might need. And the concept of mutual aid, I think, is a really essential one. And again, something that people have been doing long before we've been calling it mutual aid.
