EDS is complicated, not rare.
We’re not going anywhere.
No matter what they take from us.
Take our care, we'll fight harder.

To ask questions. To advocate for yourself.
Your care should include your voice. 💛

This is even true where a person's disability does not impact ability to go to an office in an obvious way. Meal/food prep is a big burden for me because I essentially cannot eat anything I did not make myself at home. WFH/hybrid takes some of that load off and makes my diet better.
Not only can working from home make you happier, for many disabled people it allows them to remain in the workforce

It gives them autonomy & independence. Flexibility to attend doctors appointments and care for their health

It’s a crucial accommodation, and removing it will harm disabled lives

Padilla was pulled, thrown & handcuffed by FBI. A senator in his own state, forcibly arrested! (He's since been released.) The Trump regime is cray cray.

May the anti-ICE movement continue to spread nationwide!

This is the Los Angeles spirit your news broadcast isn’t showing…

Don't just say it's unconstitutional, remind people that the constitution is full of very good ideas designed to prevent authoritarianism, and most people who want to ignore it want that specifically because they are authoritarian.
