Hey. Can someone tell me why we don't have outrage about The Supreme Court's first decision of the term? Where The Supreme Court sided against disabled veterans? Like, are we really just too tired or do we not care about disabled veterans cuz I'm confused.
And the fact the ruling was 9-0 with nobody on the side of disabled veterans? That's yet another reason why I'm an anarchist. Have fun with your Democrats and your Democracy. If your Democrats can't even rep for disabled veterans? who need time? to make a deadline? then no.
I'm looking at you: Stephen Breyer, Elena Kagan, Sonia Sotomayor, Amy Coney Barrett, Ketanji Brown Jackson, Brett Kavanaugh, Neil Gorsuch, Clarence Thomas and John Roberts.

@GaetaAmy Cld you take the keys to my Twitter away? I'm about to take ambien for sleep & I dont think I should keep tweeting my ex and my former friend god bless
Then again I'm having a lot of fun ? so like I can't decide
But like to be honest Meg Day is the far better poet. They just are. But like K is good, too. I mean I like them both a whole bunch. They just aren't very kind to me recently but why would that stop me from liking their poems? Right?

I want Florida to be safe for me to live & work in.

This is a spot in Florida. Where I wrote poems. One summer. A lot of poems.

I'm putting it here, on my grid of pics, to the right of my screen. So I can be in Florida here. Since it's not safe for me to actually be in Florida Ocean. A dock. It used to b...
I don't want to romanticize that summer, tho.

That summer was hard.

I was with a trans beloved. They said, "No one can know abt you. It's a disability accommodation for my spouse. My spouse needs you to stay a secret."

I consented to that. Because I'm an activist. I honored that disability a...

I need the record to show the way

I am employed by @floridastate

On November 8, 2022, an employee of FSU kissed me WITHOUT MY CONSENT in front of another employee of FSU in the parking lot of Gaines Street Pies
This is called battery. I am a tenured, Associate Professor at FSU, and I am not okay with battery committed against me by a colleague in my Department.

Here is the police report about the battery: 2023-90000198

I'm doing something for my pleasure. But the computer is making it far more difficult than it should be?

"Computers force their will upon us." #Irigaray

Mostly I disagree with this. But a moment like now, which I will show you, makes me think: Truly, she's right. Screenshot of my desktop. I'd like to get these three boxes
And I already know somebody, probably Millennial (I'm Millennial) or Gen Z (adore you, Gen Z) is thinking:

You just need an app.

No. I do not want to download any apps in order to achieve what I wish to achieve. Apps ask way too much data of me. And I decline all that.

I'm very tired of secret-disabled people.

I can't even write the essay about it bc I already wrote that essay: lacancircle.com.au/psychoanalysis…
There are so very many secret-disabled people in my life. I need the secrecy around disability to stop OR I need to figure out my own boundaries around secret-disabled people.

Hmmm. #Boundaries #BoundaryWork
Yeah, I can do something about my own boundaries.

Preliminary boundary: If you are secret-disabled? I will move my bodymind away from you. I do not consent to be in close relation to secret-disabled ppl.

Hi #DisabilityTwitter . Could I have some support as I do something rather audacious?
You might be thinking: "Cy, you already published your email to HR across all platforms today. You can just sit back and relax."

But that email was basic. I learned nothing from that email. Nothing that I did not already know.
But now I want to apply for something that I know my hero, an icon in philosophy, and you will all know her name in 20 years time, will read.

Her name? Shelley Lynn Tremain.

Yes, you already know her. Some of you. The rest of you? Catch up.
