WTF - @coinbase #SystemUpdate was not captioned (or subtitled) for us, 40 million deaf folks in United States of America. What is going on?? *sigh* Lack of effective communication continues… #discrimination #ada #americanswithdisabilities

Why is the PATH not providing fare reduction for people with disabilities? Others (MTA, NJTransit, Metro-North, LIRR) do provide such a program. Please help us understand. @PATHTrain

This? For $14.50??? @LibertyBagel at FiDi made this morning and sent it over to me. It is a plain bagel with cream cheese and slices of Nova Lox. This is unacceptable. #unacceptable

Great job, @delta, for not letting me know that I just got off the plane at a different airport!!! Is it too hard to communicate with a deaf person? #effectivecommunication #communicationfail #deaf #strandedinwrongairport

On April 24th, @NYCDisabilities @MTA Subway #9171 heading Queens around 5:30 PM. All of sudden, the visual notifications disappeared: “Please Listen for Train Crew Announcement” & skipped several stations. My trip foiled-Undue burden #accessbilityfail #effectivecommunicationfail

Flying with @Delta on flight #572 this morning - sooo depressing that almost none of movies have English subtitles, what gives!!! I see some people enjoying the complimentary movies, but I cannot. #accessibilityfail

I hope @VP @KamalaHQ adopts cryptocurrency plans in a favorable light. Many of us (middlemen) are trying to make ends meet and live comfortably here in America, especially with the ever-going inflation rate increases with staggering incomes.

Replying to @stclairashley
What’s the point of sign language in a video if you have subtitles? Am I missing something?

This morning, I was going to get on @PATHTrain at Hoboken. I read the notification signage that shows 2 minutes left for departure. I had enough time. As it turns to one, suddenly the train doors closes and departed leaving me stranded in the station. WTF? #accessibilityfail

I don’t really like how @PATHTrain made me feel. Treating me as a third-class citizen scrambling for help in learning what’s going on at their outage to decide what to do next. I may be DEAF but I am a PERSON first. @PATHTrain FAILED to instill Effective Communication. #ADAfail

I got stranded in a strange station, @PATHTrain has effectively left me depending on anyone that I could find to get myself out of the disorientation of lack information. Being a person with hearing loss (DEAF), without any communication access is unnerving! #accessibilityfail

Am honored to meet and chat with NY Governor Kathy Hochul (@GovKathyHochul) at her home, Executive Mansion in Albany today about the state’s tremendous need to have a commission of Deaf, Hard-of-Hearing, & Deafblind! Thank you, honorable Hochul, for having me at your home.
