Your 19 Assumptions About Our Interabled Relationship - We Respond!

Squirmy and Grubs - May 21, 2025

I have shared videos from "Squirmy and Grubs" several times. They produce some of the best disability content out there.

This video covers a lot of ground, as Q & A type programs are usually designed to do. In an entertaining way and without lecturing, Shane and Hannah teach their viewers a lot about disability and ableism. They are positive and non-confrontational, but never vague or timid. They are willing to admit to difficulties, but seem to view them in healthy perspective. They are always specific about their experiences and views, and never indulge in sappy clichés. Considering some of the annoying and offensive assumptions people have had about them over the years, this is a pretty light and enjoyable conversation.

Shane and Hannah have also just been recognized by Forbes' first Accessibility 100 List, which was profiled in Wednesday's Disability Thinking Weekday.
