Follower Census
Hello! Largely inspired by @/radiofreederry's own surveys, I've decided to also make something similar. This is fuelled by my own desire to collect statistics and try to extract conclusions from it, it is very simple and short to fill out. Thank you in advance :33

There was a catgirl census. The only options were - From Europe - From English speaking Country - Both - Neither. I thought censuses were supposed to capture the diversity of a group?

The American Census Bureau is considering changes that would artificially decrease the number of disabled people in the US. We may be able to stop this.
According to this article from the Associated Press, the Census Bureau's proposed changes would align the way that the American Community Survey measures disability with international standards. They will be changing the way that some of the questions are worded, as well as changing the options for answers.
The problem is this: the questions about disability will ask if respondents if they have “no difficulty,” “some difficulty,” “a lot of difficulty” or “cannot do at all” with regard to things like hearing, seeing, ability to bathe or dress oneself, etc. Someone will only be counted as disabled if they answer "a lot of difficulty" or "cannot do at all." This excludes a lot of people. "During testing last year by the Census Bureau, the percentage of respondents who were defined as having a disability went from 13.9% using the current questions to 8.1% under the international standards. When the definition was expanded to also include “some difficulty,” it grew to 31.7%" (AP).
So what can we do? The Census Bureau is accepting public comment on the proposed changes until the end of the day on Tuesday, December 19th. Visit this link to submit your comments, and tell the Census Bureau why this change is a bad idea! Statistics show that at least 25% of Americans are disabled (CDC). We can't let the Census Bureau erase us.
Please share this widely, and submit your comments before the close of business on Tuesday, December 19th! I also highly encourage you to check out the Associate Press article linked above, since it does a good job of explaining the situation in more detail.

📍 #AskAConservator – Here’s a 1960 census enumeration map of Chicago, showing every area a census taker would cover. It’s worn from heavy use, but our job is to conserve it for future digitization. By 2032, it will be accessible to all thanks to conservation efforts today!

so apparently, the US census is about to make 40% of disabled people disappear in its data.
they gonna change the disability-related questions, and then only count the two most negative answers as a disability. and also the new version will do even worse than the old version at counting disabled ppl who are chronically and/or mentally ill. and just in time for long covid to create more of exactly those kinds of disabled ppl [/tinfoil hat]
article about the change they're trying to make:

on how to leave a public comment to try to make that not happen:
