A tan and brown two-headed cartoon cow stands in a cartoon field of pink and yellow flowers with bright green leaves. Their left head wears a pink and purple flower crown and is positioned to smell one of the flowers. The other head wears a pair of black sunglasses with no wings. We do not know how they stay on.
A tan and brown two-headed cow stands in a warmly lit, wooded seating area. Greenery is visible through its floor-to-ceiling windows, some of which are cracked open. A black and white QR code sits in the bottom left corner with a “scan me” label, and the Including Disability logo—a stylized I and D—with an asterisk after it is in the bottom right corner.
A laptop sits open behind a notebook. A white person’s hand holds a red pen over the notebook. A cartoon tan and brown two-headed cow stands on the notebook. A quotation bubble over their heads reads “Looking for something to do on a rainy day? Submit something to Including Disability! We take all media formats!” The left head wears dark sunglasses, and the right head wears a pink and purple flower crown.
A round pink strawberry-themed bear sits against a pink background with white lace borders. A purple ribbon weaves between the lace strands. The bear is a Squishable brand plushie. The caption reads “I love you beary much!” The “I” is crossed out and replaced with “We.” There’s a gift tag in the top left corner that reads “To: Disability Advocates From: CowCow.” A picture of CowCow, a two-headed tan and brown cow is placed beside the From line.
A pink stuff bat with blue eyes and a burgundy bowtie sits against a bubblegum pink background with lace borders. The bat is a Squishable brand plush. The caption reads “Love you to heck & bat!” There’s a gift tag in the top left corner that reads “To: Disability Advocates From: CowCow.” A picture of CowCow, a two-headed tan and brown cow is placed beside the From line.
Cartoon white notebook paper with blue lines on it. Red hearts are papered around its border. In the middle, in a handwriting-like font, the question “Do you love accessibility?” “Love” is underlined. Beneath, two options: yes and no. The circle beside “yes” is filled in with another red heart. In the bottom right corner, a tan and brown two-headed cow stands behind one of the red border hearts. The left head wears a pink and purple flower crown, and the right wears black sunglasses without arms.
A tan and brown cartoon two-headed cow floats against a giant purple-tinted disco ball that spins behind them. One head wears a pink and purple flower crown, and the other wears dark sunglasses. Confetti rains down around them. Floating around them, going clockwise, are: a cartoon computer, a judge’s gavel, a realistic picture of a piece of paper that says “ADA Americans with Disabilities Act,” a cartoon computer mouse with lines around its point indicating a click, a realistic picture of a futuristic white robot holding its arm out to interact with a projected screen, a cartoon rendition of the Scales of Justice, a cartoon laptop open with a dark screen, and a cartoon rendition of a keyboard with lines indicating it’s connecting to something by wifi or bluetooth.
A tan and brown cartoon cow stands against a pink flowery background. The title: Get to know CowCow. Around the two-headed cow, the following facts in brown text, going counterclockwise: We were born on the American-Canadian border, so one head is American, and the other is Canadian.Our best friend isParkour Squirrel. Our full name is: CowCow the Bicranial Bovine, First of Their Name, Herald of the Disabled Apocalypse, Breaker of Curb Cuts.We have one-eyed cow cousins.There is no reason for CowCow;we simply are.Even our own team “doesn’t get the cow.” We bring tidings of great accessibility. Our single-headed ancestor appeared on the Vol. 3 cover. One head has the magical ability to keep their sunglasses on without the glasses having arms.
A cartoon tan and brown two-headed cow stands in a field full of multi-colored wildflowers. The left head wears a pink and purple flower crown, and the right wears a pair of dark sunglasses with no wings. (We don’t know how they stay up.) On their body, they wear a fluffy pink realistic tutu. A quotation bubble over the left head reads “On Wednesdays, we wear pink.” The right head says, “The disabilities might be chronic, but we look iconic.”
A tan and brown cartoon two-headed cow stands in an animated snowstorm. Above their heads, the words “new stuff”–“new” in plain, serif black text, “stuff” in bold, sans serif purple–and a black and white QR code.
A tan and brown cartoon cow stands in front of a pink background with gold confetti. A sparkly gold starburst sits behind the cow. In brown letters at the top: “Happy 2026!” Below the cow in brown letters: “from your friends at.” Then the Including Disability logo, a stylized combined I and D.
A cartoon tan and brown two-headed cow stands in a warmly lit living room. The walls and floors are wood paneled, and two rows of bookshelves hang behind a lighted Christmas tree. Presents sit nestled beneath it. (How a two-headed cow wrapped them, we do not know.) Over the tan couch beside the tree hangs the Star of David. Outside the window, blurry snow flakes fall. On the windowsill sits a 9-candled menorah.
Two taped-up photo squares and a quotation bubble hang on a pinkish-purple background. One of the two heads of a two-headed cow is in each of the photo squares. One wears sunglasses, and the other wears a pink and purple flower crown. The quotation bubble reads “Did You Know?” Then, a bullet point list of facts. First, “The phrase "Nothing about us without us" is from the 1500s and was a protest against kings making decisions alone. Its Latin form was ‘Nihil de nobis, sine nobis.’” Then, “One of CowCow's heads probably speaks Latin. The other does not.”
A brown cartoon squirrel holds an acorn in its hands. Text in front of it reads “Parkour Squirrel’s Nuts of Wisdom.” A quotation bubble above the squirrel reads “A nut never apologizes for its shell; it trusts the world to discover its worth.” In the bottom left corner, CowCow’s two heads pop in, cut off just above their four nostrils. The left head wears their usual wing-less sunglasses, and the right one wears their usual pink and purple flower crown.
A two headed tan and brown cow stands in a snowy cartoon field. One head wears a pink and purple flower crown, while the other wears a pair of sunglasses without wings. To their right, there is a cartoon snowman with sticks for legs and arms. How he balances, we do not know. Great is his power. Over the cow’s heads, there’s a quotation bubble that reads “Accessibility is ‘snow’ much fun.” Snowflakes pepper the air around the cow and snowman.
A video of graceful, dark-feathered turkeys eating from the grassy ground plays on a loop. In a tan box underneath the video, text reads “We’re thankful for all of our marvelous volunteers!” Beside the text, CowCow, a two-headed tan and brown cow stands proudly. One head wears a pink and purple flowercrown, while the other wears dark sunglasses without wings.
A zoomed in closeup of CowCow’s heads. One wears a flower crown, and the other wears sunglasses without wings. The background is a spooky, dimly-lit forest. White text above their heads reads “There is no HowHow to CowCow.”
A cartoon tan and brown two headed cow stands in a green and orange field with rolling hills. One head wears a pink and purple flower crown while the other wears dark sunglasses with no wings. A quotation bubble over their head reads “No need to cow-er; we’re disabled and proud.”
A cartoon tan and brown two-headed cow stands in a snow-covered field. Curly black lines in the sky indicate the wind is gusting toward the cow. One of the cow’s heads wears a scarf and pink and purple flower crown; the other head wears sunglasses and dark earmuffs. A quotation bubble over the cow reads “Everyone deserves easy, breezy accessibility.” Breezy is underlined because we know this pun is terrible, but we’re leaning into it anyway.
A tan and brown two-headed cow stands atop a foggy, scenic mountain range with lots of rocks. A quotation bubble over their heads reads “We’ll shout it from the mountain tops: Access is udder-ly essential!”
A cartoon field with bright green grass and a bright blue sky. A building that might be a house and might be a barn stands on the far side of the field with curtains in its warmly-lit windows. A herd of slightly disturbing AI-generated animals rests around the field with ZZZs over their heads. A tan and brown two-headed cow, one head wearing a pink and purple flower crown and the other wearing sunglasses without wings, stands amidst them. Over the top third of the image, “Rest is RADICAL” is spelled out in brown letters. A bright yellow sun hangs in the sky, and animals that might be bees, birds, or butterflies swarm flutter around it.
A lovely, brightly lit cartoon field. A tan and brown two-headed cow stands before a wicker laundry basket filled with unfolded laundry. A quotation bubble over one head reads “Task initiation? More like task moo-tivation!”
A quote on a tan background: “Accessibility is moo-sic to our ears.” Attributed to CowCow. Three music notes float up into the upper right corner. In the bottom left, CowCow, a tan and brown two-headed cow stands proud. One head wears a pink and purple flower crown, and the other wears a pair of sunglasses without wings.
A yellow sticky note is taped to a purple background. Above the sticky note, “CowCow wants:” On the sticky note, “Accessi-bull-ity for all.” Below the sticky note, a tan and brown two headed cow.

A tan and brown two-headed cow stands in a cartoon field with a bright blue sky filled with puffy white clouds. The left head wears a pink and purple flower crown, and the right wears a pair of sunglasses without arms. The accessibility symbol, a blue square with a white outline of a wheelchair user speeding along, sits in front of them. A quotation bubble over their right head reads “Accessibility isn’t just a-moo-sing; it’s a human right.”
A collage of cartoon items: a smartphone, a tylenol box, three pills labeled “SSRIs,” a syringe with “any of them” in parenthesis beside it, and an open refrigerator with the word “mothers” on it.
Two taped-up photo squares and a quotation bubble hang on a pinkish-purple background. One of the two heads of a two-headed cow is in each of the photo squares. One wears sunglasses, and the other wears a pink and purple flower crown. The quotation bubble reads “Did You Know?” Then, a bullet point list of facts. First, “The rubber-handled potato peeler we know today came about as an adaptation for individuals with arthritis. Score for universal design!” Then, “CowCow prefers their potatoes roasted to a crisp.”
A brown cartoon squirrel holds an acorn in its hands. Text in front of it reads “Parkour Squirrel’s Nuts of Wisdom.” A quotation bubble above the squirrel reads “Don’t just chase the nut—be the nut worth chasing.” In the bottom left corner, CowCow’s two heads pop in, cut off just above their four nostrils. The left head wears their usual wing-less sunglasses, and the right one wears their usual pink and purple flower crown.
In a cartoon barn, CowCow stands before a computer. A quotation bubble over their left head reads “Moo,” and a quotation bubble over the right head reads “Moo.” On the computer screen, the words “Moo. Moo.” are displayed.
At the top of the image, a title: Ableism Whack-A-Mole. CowCow holds a wooden mallet in front of a whack-a-mole game on a street corner. Each mole popping up is labeled with a different form of ableism, including: presumed incompetence, inaccessible environments, lack of representation, pity, derogatory language, and employment discrimination. The biggest mole in the center is labeled “Ableism” in larger letters than the other moles.
A screenshot of the Including Disability website’s Podcast page takes up the left two-thirds of the picture. “Including Disability. Podcast playlist. Episode 1. Guest: Casey Doherty. Released: April 8, 2025. Listen on YouTube. Thanks for listening to our “inaugur-pod”! Casey will be.” The text cuts off. On the right side, the Including Disability logo, a combined I and D, sits in the top right corner. CowCow in their sunglasses and flower crown is in the bottom right.
Two taped-up photo squares and a quotation bubble hang on a pinkish-purple background. One of the two heads of a two-headed cow is in each of the photo squares. One wears sunglasses, and the other wears a pink and purple flower crown. The quotation bubble reads “Did You Know?” Then, a bullet point list of facts. First, “According to the CDC, 1 in 44 U.S. adults is disabled.” Second, “1 in 1 two-headed cows is a mascot for Including Disability.”
A brown cartoon squirrel holds an acorn in its hands. Text in front of it reads “Parkour Squirrel’s Nuts of Wisdom.” A quotation bubble above the squirrel reads “Parkour isn't about showing off. It's about getting to the acorn first.” In the bottom left corner, CowCow’s two heads pop in, cut off just above their four nostrils. The left head wears their usual wing-less sunglasses, and the right one wears their usual pink and purple flower crown.
A tan and brown two-headed cow stands in the bottom left corner. They are a cartoon sticker, and the left head wears a pink and purple flower crown while the left wears sunglasses without wings. Behind them, a realistic herd of cows stands strong; two of them seem to be approaching the camera with their excellent snouts. (Do cows have snouts?) Over the left head, a quotation bubble reads “Accessibility is udder-ly essential.” Over the right, another quotation bubble reads “We have the cow-rage to demand it.”
A brown cartoon squirrel holds an acorn in its hands. Text in front of it reads “Parkour Squirrel’s Nuts of Wisdom.” A quotation bubble above the squirrel reads “Every branch is a chance to change direction…or find another acorn.” In the bottom left corner, CowCow’s two heads pop in, cut off just above their four nostrils. The left head wears their usual wing-less sunglasses, and the right one wears their usual pink and purple flower crown.
A tan and brown two-headed cow sits in an orange-cushioned reading chair in a reading room. The left head wears a pink and purple flower crown, while the right wears a pair of black sunglasses with no wings. We don’t know how they stay on their face. There are bookshelves along the wall behind them, and a sliding door opening into a green, leafy patio on the next wall. There’s an orange-cushioned ottoman in front of them and a side table beside them. All of the wood in the room is light; between that and the sliding door, the room has a bright, airy feel. Volume 5 of Including Disability sits open on the side table. The cover is a dumpster on fire with the Including Disability logo, a stylized I and D, stamped on its front. The title “Including Disability” hangs in the smoke above the dumpster fire.
A tan and brown two-headed cow stands in a sunlit forest. There’s a trail before them, but they’re standing just to its side. A quote bubble over the left head, wearing sunglasses with no wings, reads, “Want a brief description of an acorn?” A quote bubble over the right, wearing a pink and purple flower crown, reads, “Sure.” Another quote bubble over the sunglasses head reads, “In a nutshell, it’s an oak tree.”
A tan and brown two-headed cow stands behind a wooden plank table in a warmly-lit cafe. The left head wears sunglasses with no wings (and, no, we still don’t know how they stay so perfectly on their nose); the right head wears a pink and purple flower crown. On the table in front of them are two everything bagels, one gray and one brown. Out of focus in the background are shelves with unclear goods and what appears to be a window dividing the seating space from the shop entrance. Bulb lights dangle behind them too, also out of focus, but they don’t seem to hang from anything, and the backs of the chairs don’t seem to connect to the seats—almost like the background was created by an alien…or an AI…
A tan and brown two-headed cartoon cow stands against a black background. In bold white text below them, “Summit 2025.” Below that, captions from a previous visual have glitched onto this one. They read “I find them fun.” The cow’s oval black eyes stare unblinking, directly at the viewer. There is something mildly threatening—or perhaps joyous—about finding them fun. This picture encapsulates CowCow’s fun, yet mildly-threatening air. We love CowCow. We follow CowCow. We are CowCow.
A tan and brown cartoon two-headed cow stands in a photo-realistic rolling field during a rainstorm. Gray storm clouds linger over the cow’s heads, and the rain comes down slanted toward the right. The right head wears a pink and purple flower crown, and the left wears sunglasses with no arms. How they stay on their head, we do not know. A quote bubble over the left head reads “The weather's not the only thing that's unpredictable. So is my brilliance.” A quote bubble over the right head reads “And were you brilliant enough to bring an umbrella?”
A tan and brown two-headed cow sits curled up on an armchair amidst a pile of cozy blankets. A fire burns in a fireplace nearby. A coffee table with a carved surface sits in front of the two-headed cow. In the background, a living room decked out in cow-themed decor is lit warmly by the fire. Both of the cow’s heads are wearing sleep masks, the left purple and the right pink. The left’s is down over their eyes, and the right’s is pushed back over their horns. A speech bubble over the left’s head reads “No logic” in fancy script. Over the right’s, another speech bubble reads “Just reasons” in the same script.
A two-headed cow stands in a cow-themed pool. The left head wears a pink and purple flower crown, and the right wears sunglasses with no arms. How they stay on their head, we do not know. A donut-themed pool float with pink icing and sprinkles is in the water beside the right head. A black and white cow-patterned arch extends from the pool deck into the air behind the two-headed cow. Planters and bushes line the sides of the pool deck, then a tan privacy fence encloses the area. Green trees and a bright blue sky with white hazy clouds fill the rest of the background.
A tan and brown two-headed cow stands on a quiet street. One head wears sunglasses that don’t have arms, so we really don’t know how they stay on. The other wears a pink and purple flower crown around their ears. Their front hoof is raised and is wearing a protective mit of some sort. The curb in front of them is halfway destroyed, and there’s a growing pile of rubble in front of it. The head with sunglasses has a thought bubble over it that reads “Even when things are discouraging, we stay true to our name and BUILD. THE. CURB. CUTS.” The flower crown head has a thought bubble over it that reads “I’ve got my boxing hoof on! Lemme at it!” A black Including Disability logo, a stylized I and D combined, sits in the bottom left corner of the picture.
A tan and brown two-headed cow stands on a wooded path. Rich greenery surrounds the path, and sunlight peeks through the tall trees. There are autumn leaves on the ground. One of the cow’s heads wears a pink and purple flower crown, and the other wears sunglasses without arms. How they stay on, no one knows. There is a speech bubble over each head. The left head is saying, “Advocacy is hard work. Don’t forget to refuel.” The right head is saying, “Saw a squirrel doing parkour. 10/10 form.” Behind the two-headed cow is a cartoon squirrel eating a nut. An arrow points at it with a label reading “parkour squirrel.” The Including Disability logo, a stylized I and D, sits in the bottom left corner.
A tan and brown two-headed cow stands in a lush field with tall, purple flowers. Tall evergreen trees then a mountain range are in the distance behind them. The cow's left head wears a pink and purple flower crown, and its right head wears sunglasses that manage to stay on their nose without wings. The right head is staring at a yellow-orange butterfly on one of the purple flowers. A thought bubble over the left head reads "Two heads means double the opinions. Double the advocacy. And double the snacks." A thought bubble over the right head reads "Check out that butterfly. Very nice."
Zoom in on a tan and brown two-headed cow’s heads, both of which have horns. The left wears a pink and purple flower crown; the right wears epic sunglasses that magically stay on their nose without being held in place by sides. The left head has a thought bubble that says “psst!” above them. The right head has a thought bubble that says “Over here!” above them.
A tan and brown two-headed cow stands in a warmly lit, wooded seating area. Greenery is visible through its floor-to-ceiling windows, some of which are cracked open. A black and white QR code sits in the bottom left corner with a “scan me” label, and the Including Disability logo—a stylized I and D—with an asterisk after it is in the bottom right corner.
A rusted industrial dumpster is engulfed in flames, with bold black text at the top reading “INCLUDING DISABILITY” also in the fire. Stylized graffiti of the same phrase is scrawled across the edge of the dumpster. A large, Including Disability logo is painted in black on the rusted metal. In the bottom corner is a small sticker depicting a cartoon two-headed cow. This two-headed cow is black and white, and it is not CowCow. The left head sits where a cow’s head should, but the right head seems to emerge from its flank. The sky is filled with an unknown insect. Perhaps they are bees the size of sparrows.
CowCow, a tan and brown two-headed cow, stands in front of a white tackboard on a white wall. There’s a shelf in front of it with cow-themed items, including a black and white cookie jar, cheese wedge, and a clear cookie jar. (CowCow likes their cookies, okay?) On CowCow’s tackboard, there are three images. Clockify’s logo is in the top left corner of the tackboard. It is a blue square with rounded edges and a white cutout of a clock in the middle. Clockify by CAKE.com is written in black next to it. goblin.tools’ logo is next, a green goblin head with a small smile and goblin.tools written next to it. Headspace is is next, an orange circle with the word Headspace written in black next to it. Finally, there is Speechify’s logo, a black rectangle with a white soundwave and the word Speechify next to it. In the bottom left corner, the ID logo (a combined I and D; the I is the straight part of the D) with an asterisk after it.

There’s a shelf in front of it with cow-themed items, including a black and white cookie jar, cheese wedge, and a clear cookie jar. (CowCow likes their cookies, okay?) On CowCow’s tackboard, there are three images. The first is the MyStudyLife logo, white text on a navy blue background. A white figure of a student in a graduation cap with a dangling tassel sits to the left of the organization name. The second logo is for Notion, a white cube with black edges and a black N in the middle. The third logo is the Bear logo, a red circle with a cutout of a white bear head looking to the right. In the bottom left corner, the ID logo (a combined I and D; the I is the straight part of the D) with an asterisk after it.

There’s a shelf in front of it with cow-themed items, including a black and white cookie jar, cheese wedge, and a clear cookie jar. (CowCow likes their cookies, okay?) On CowCow’s tackboard, there are three images. The first is the Virginia Tech logo, a red outline of the letters V and T, then orange letters for Virginia Tech next to them. The second is a screencap of a journal article title (“Exploring the Intersectionality of Disability and Refugee Statuses: Reflecting on My Refugee Journey”) with the authors’ names listed below. The third is the Disruptive Inclusion logo: A series of three red, green, and blue overlapping triangles with “Learn with Disruptive Inclusion!” written in white beside it. Another line of text is too small to read beneath that. In the bottom left corner, the ID logo (a combined I and D; the I is the straight part of the D) with an asterisk after it.

There’s a shelf in front of it with cow-themed items, including a black and white cookie jar, cheese wedge, and a clear cookie jar. (CowCow likes their cookies, okay?) On CowCow’s tackboard, there are three images: One of the logo for CowCow’s Virtual ComMOOnity space (an image of CowCow in a relaxing, dark wood–paneled room with lots of chairs and greenery), one for Calling Up (black text on a white background with an arrow coming out of the closing “p”), and one for the Disabled Academic Collective (black text on a white background). The ID logo (a combined I and D; the I is the straight part of the D) with an asterisk after it sits in the bottom left corner.
CowCow the two-headed tan and brown cow stands behind a podium with two microphones, one pointed at each head. Tan curtains comprise the ever-so-professional press conference backdrop behind them, and they stand on a tan stage with steps down the front of it. The press conference backdrop sits against a white background. The ID logo with an asterisk is in the bottom right corner.
In a cartoon style, two black and white one-eyed cows with gray horns push wheelbarrows that look more like trash cans in a muddy, fenced-in pasture. There’s a lump in the middle of their heads that might be a unicorn horn, a third ear, or a concerning growth their dermatologist should check out. Hay is strewn illogically around on the ground. On the other side of the fence, a large red farm sits in the background. CowCow the two-headed tan and brown cow stands in front of one of its doors. Behind the farm, there is a bright blue sky with puffy white clouds and a bright yellow sun. In the sky, the words “Volunteer with Accessibility Summer Camp” appear in black font that is reminiscent of handwriting. The whole image looks like it’s been poorly AI-generated, but it’s crossed from bad to funny. The ID logo with an asterisk sits in the bottom left corner, and the Accessibility Summer Camp logo sits in the bottom right corner. The Accessibility Summer Camp logo looks like a bright yellow sun with sharp rays emerging from it. A black figure of a person with its arms out stands in the middle of the sun.
A two-headed tan and brown cow stands on a grassy knoll. A bright blue sky with puffy white clouds and a bright sun is behind them. A thought bubble appears from between the two heads and has the yellow Accessibility Summer Camp logo in it. The logo is reminiscent of a badge, circular but with triangles poking out the sides all around. The black text stretches around the circle, and a black cartoon figure of a person stands with its arms spread wide in the middle of it.
In a pink quotation bubble spoken by a two-headed cow: We have merch! A white sweatshirt with the ID logo and a QR code sits under it. Beneath that, a pink sweatshirt with a two-headed cow and its QR code. The ID logo sits in the bottom right corner.
A gray cat with black stripes stares out of a video monitor. The face of a young white woman with dark hair peeks out from behind the cat. The video call identifies the cat and person as Jennifer Rode, UCL Knowledge Lab. Added to the image is a QR code and the Including Disability logo with an asterisk after it. A very small, almost invisible image of a two-headed cow sits beside the logo.
A white man with a majestic brown and white beard sits on a rock in the woods. He wears dark, rectangular glasses and grins. He wears a gray and black patterned sweater and khakis.Added to the image is a QR code and the Including Disability logo with an asterisk after it. A very small, almost invisible image of a two-headed cow sits beside the logo.
A tan and brown spotted cartoon cow with two adorable heads in sticker form against a white background. Both the cow’s heads have horns, and its body has udders. Its tail dangles behind it. A slight shadow falls behind the sticker. The Including Disability with an asterisk after it sits in the bottom right corner.
