Those who believe in disability justice are my comrades.

Those who don’t probably aren’t.

This may sound like a purity test, but if you know about disability justice, you’ll know it’s not.

It feels insanely itchy to me if my clothes are tight, no matter how soft the fabric is. If it's snug it feels like I'm walking around in an itchy wool sweater.

β€˜They roll right over’: Many Democrats call their party weak and ineffective, AP-NORC poll finds A poll from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research finds that many Democrats see their political party as β€œweak” or β€œineffective.”

This shouldn’t be surprising. The only way to fight back is to… actually fight back.

If Democrats want to improve their approval rating (or far more importantly, make actual change), we need real leadership to put up real resistance to authoritarianism.

If you can't bring yourself to value trans lives (Which you SHOULD), then you need to at least acknowledge that helping trans folks access gender affirming care, is intrinsically intwined with those of us cis folks who are intersex by default.

Hell, even just a few days after the IUD was in (Got it on Tuesday), my brain has already begun to shut up.

And THIS is why I say that trans issues are women's issues too.

Oof. I'm not trans but as a cis woman with an intersex condition, this still hits home for me. In that sense the IUD really helps me. Having to go without one for months, reminded me of how chaotic my internal life is without it.

I can confirm my own experience with going on T. It had a similar effect as going vegetarian did for me- that "click into place" that left me both physically and emotionally steadier.

My EYESIGHT got a smidgen better on T. Not enough to no longer need specs, but it did delay the need for new ones.

in my guesstimation of talking to hundreds of trans people of all genders who desire HRT, about ~75% of us report, within a few WEEKS of our first doses, our minds calming and becoming a habitable place for us for the first time in our lives

this is what we are defending

it is life or death

It's not fair that it has to be this way. But a lot of Falco's mobility aids are currently in storage. Xey lose those, xey pretty much have no access to the world. Which is already severely limited due to xyr being immunocompromised. Help a disabled person keep xyr life.

Rent COVERED, thank you! This was close but at least this week I wasn't late.

But I AM late for $275 storage, which was due the 1st. If I can't catch it quickly, they'll slap a $50 late fee on it, and if it's VERY late, they'll auction off my unit.

Please help if able?

Idea: HEPA filration material that can be cut to size and shape, with double-sided tape, magnets, velcro, AND elastic straps as part of the kit so you have options on how to attach it to a fan or window. Sell by the roll and you can make SEVERAL, either for easy replacement or to do multiple items.

YES. For snakes' sake, at the VERY least don't outsource what you should invest EMOTION into.

Don't be afraid of your emotions. Don't bottle them up. Catharsis is a crucial part of dealing with them healthily!

Anyone who shames folks for doing most of their activism/stuff online, better follow up with β€œAnd this is how disabled/immunocompromised folks can help”.

Because we’re no use to you if you don’t create spaces for us.

And we’re no use to you dead.
