the movies suffer terribly when there is a lack of weird looking dudes to play major roles. Clarence Boeddicker was a good 30% of why Robocop was so memorable and he sold that character by looking and feeling like some freak who knifes you behind a bar for the $12 in your pocket

Long Covid patients fear being forgotten … because that’s what society does to disabled people. They vanish us. Drop out of our lives when we don’t β€œget better”.

Unfortunately the world’s desire to cosplay 2019 will keep creating more disabled people. Who will in turn be forgotten. Rinse & repeat.

We're not done yet | 18F

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.

18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.

We made this website to tell our story:

Disabled characters deserve to be featured as primary characters in film/TV/books/games, AND without their entire plot revolving around β€œcuring” them.

Congress: Save Medicaid Now Politicians are attempting to pass devastating cuts to Medicaid right now and we must act fast. Send a message telling your member of Congress to fight back now.

URGENT: The House is set to vote tomorrow on whether to advance $880 billion in cuts to Medicaid β€” eviscerating essential programs that provide lifesaving services for people with disabilities, children, seniors, and more.

Tell your representative now: Don't cut Medicaid.

The image is a screenshot of an MSNBC news broadcast covering a House of Representatives vote. The main portion of the screen shows a live scene from the House chamber with a vote tally displayed, indicating the results for House Concurrent Resolution 14 (H CON RES 14). The vote breakdown is:

Republicans: 216 Yea, 1 Nay, 3 Not Voting

Democrats: 212 Nay

Independents: 0 votes

Total: 216 Yea, 213 Nay, 4 Not Voting The bottom of the screen has a red "Breaking News" banner stating, "HOUSE GOP VOTES ON BUDGET DEAL THAT THREATENS MEDICAID."

On the right side of the screen, there are two smaller video panels:

1. The top panel features MSNBC host Chris Hayes speaking, with the show's logo "ALL IN" visible in the background.

2. The bottom panel shows a congressman in a suit speaking in a government building.

The broadcast time is displayed as 8:14 PM ET at the top left and 7:14 PM CT at the bottom right. The setting is Capitol Hill.

The House budget reconciliation framework that cuts $1 trillion from Medicaid has just passed.

They are literally taking from the sick and poor to give the rich tax cuts.

This is a full purge of every single LGBTQ employee at the NSA. Rufo is falsely mischaracterizing a LGBTQ employee resource group as a "sex chat" to create pretext to fire every single member in it.

This is a playbook they will run to purge the entire federal government.

The real fight against Elon’s coup has begun It started on Sunday.

The real fight against Musk’s coup started when federal workers and DC residents took direct action, blocking the billionaire’s minions at OPM.

Now the rest of us need to join them.

We need to understand that the rules are out the window, and this is a real fight.
