It’s so weird but people concerned about “cancel culture” never use this sort of thing as examples.
Kill, actually.
The questions in the first two posts on the thread are the next questions they'll consider after they consider this one.

The questions after *those* questions begin: "Is it legal to imprison ..."

And after that, "Is it legal to kill ..."

Fascism always has intentions.

I'd add: its *state-run* white supremacist terrorism problem.
Even in the unlikely event that this key witness' murder is a totally unrelated coincidence, law enforcement has been infiltrated for decades by white supremacists, and this is known.

Meanwhile we send forces to police fellow Americans as if their cities were occupied territory.
ICE raids hospitals, schools, workplaces.

Then they dispel the rumors that they'll be at polling places—because they don't have to show at polling places. The rumor was enough. The point is: hide.

Deportation was the secondary point of the raids.

The first was terror.

It’s Friday. What are the best GIF search terms?

I’ll start:

“Recursive”
“Somersault”
“Hate”

My answer to the latest David Brooks nightmare-thing is that it's impossible to have a productive conversation with Trump voters, not because I refuse to honor their dignity, but because they've deliberately chosen a menacing alternate reality that threatens all our lives.
There is no middle ground to be found between reality and not-reality, and it isn't productive to try to find one.

All you can do with someone who has chosen to live in a lie is to refuse to enter the lie they inhabit, and continue to provide the example of a life lived in truth
None of these think-piece written by our flotilla of smug well-paid Civility Dudes—all of whom think the REAL problem is we don't listen to each other enough—ever contends w/the fact that supporting Trump is an abusive act of deliberate menace carrying real-world terror and harm.

Flying is a nightmare when you need to bring 2 dozen medications with you.

1st, Despite already having them organized into a large pillbox right now, I have to put them all back into their original bottles again now before flying with them - otherwise they *will* get taken away
Then, despite having put them in those bottles, I’m now faced with a choice. If I put them in my checked bag and that bag is lost, even for a day? I will be in real danger. So for safety they should go in my carry on. HOWEVER...
Putting them in my carry on means I almost always face additional screening from TSA when they see allllll those pills in my bag. Yes, I always have copies of my prescriptions ready to go so I can prove I’m not trafficking any of the pills, but it takes time and is stressful.

I just wrote a long thread 📌about the cost of being #disabled ♿ and/or chronically ill🏥 in America & my hand went spastic & deleted it & honestly that is the perfect coda.

I so desperately want to be able to get out of my house to go somewhere other than the hospital.

I have needed a wheelchair lift and an automatic wheelchair since I was paralyzed. Despite the exorbitant premiums charged by my health insurance company, which is one of the largest in the country so I know they can afford it, they don't provide such things.
2/
It is frankly driving me mad to be trapped inside all the time with the same view and never to be able to have a break from that. The nurse practitioner comes to the house, as does the nurse navigator. I am fighting to get the physical therapist back. It's just so arduous.

#Disabled people often go decades, even whole lives, without being included in definitions of what it means to be human. Whether people are talking about human thought, biology, creativity, or whatever, they often exclude our ways of being. It feels like subtle erosion.
When you're talking about human senses, ways of moving, ways of thinking / feeling, ways of philosophising / relating to various concepts...make sure you're not treating it as a singular experience. Even if you don't know all the different types of human experiences (who does?)
you can still say, "It's likely that some people will experience this differently, and we shouldn't assume that this is the only way of being human." Do make an effort to actually represent different experiences, but I get that sometimes you can't represent everything.

Well - it's my birthday today. It's also 3 weeks since we provided @RedbridgeLive with a clear list of emergency needs as disanled, homeless people, that they need to help us meet as per the Care Act. NONE have been met.
@RedbridgeLive So - NO access to disabled bathing facilities suitable to our impairments, for months now. No hairwashing/drying. No support in accessing food, made increasingly impossible by disability, but also complete lack of cooking and refrigeration facilities.
@RedbridgeLive The distance to the car is too much for me, and for Stevie. She last "went out" on 16 January when she was forced, with Sean, to transfer to another Travelodge while I was in hospital. She hasnt seen anyone except me and her brother since.
