Five years ago, the government paid $2,500/month during the pandemic. SSI gives Americans with disabilities only $967/month. That’s not survival.
We're asking Congress to raise benefits to $2,500, reflect real #Disability costs, and fix asset limits—people deserve to live, not just exist.

Refusing to fund SNAP is ableism.
Cutting Medicaid is ableism.
Terminating ACA subsidies is ableism.
Slashing affordable housing is ableism.
This regime has a very clear eugenics agenda.
They’re targeting services they know disabled people rely on to survive.
We are not expendable.

When I visited her in SF in 2022, I was prepared to be masked, but we were able to sit outside. She served me cookies. I was nervous & said “I don’t want to eat in front of you when you can’t eat, also I am trying to lose weight” & she typed into her speech machine “EAT THE FUCKING COOKIES!!!!” 😂
Alice could not eat food for years.
And yet at Christmas she would bake cookies and mail them to me—such was her desire to provide care for the people she loved.

Watching disabled people around the world mourn Alice is a reminder of the good aspect of the internet. 30 years ago, few people outside of SF would ever have known Alice existed. I never would have met her. The internet connected us all. Let’s honor Alice’s memory by using that power and community.
My social media is wall-to-wall love for the incomparable Alice Wong, and I need more words. What captures sadness and/also affection for a community that knows what's been lost?

The Trump admin is now claiming U.S. troops have immunity for blowing up drug boats,even in international waters. Reminder: U.S. legal immunity doesn’t apply in other countries. If Colombia, Venezuela, or the ICC decide those strikes were illegal? That “immunity” is meaningless

Those who're currently able need to wake the fuck up, & start realising that our whole society is deeply flawed in how we deal with situations & address issues. By not addressing many issues to be inclusive, it facilitates fascism & eugenics. Healthcare, social care, cost of living are all skewed!
“She explained how much Covid could hurt her & how vulnerable it felt to be unable to wear a mask to protect herself.
She was a perfect example of why other people need to wear masks even if they don’t personally think Covid will hurt them”
If you want to honour Alice Wong’s memory, please mask up

Thank You Alice Wong
Alice Wong has passed away and the disability community has lost a leader. I lost a mentor and a friend. The Disabled Ginger wouldn't exist without Alice and everything she taught me.

Far right propagandists don’t need to attain power.
The result is the same if they can successfully
seed their ideologies in the existing body politic.

Ramaswamy may be the one guy who Republicans who can nominate who can lose Ohio. He's Vance without the whiteness.
No one did more to make sure Trump was rewarded for his indictments and his reward was to be exiled from DOGE to a race where MAGA will probably just hang him out to dry.

Acton: I’m running against a guy, Vivek Ramaswamy, who has said that people are struggling in Ohio because they’re lazy, they’re mediocre, they’re not working hard enough. And I can absolutely tell you that is not the Ohioans I know or see. I think he’s completely out of touch.

steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back
Insulting to the players, insulting to the IP, insulting to the medium, the developers. And the craft itself. Fuck you executives who pushed this garbage.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is littered with AI generated artwork which makes the $70 feel like a complete rip-off.
