the quotes and replies here have HUNDREDS of people wishing ill on JK Rowling in incredibly vivid, creative ways, which I only note because NOTHING HAPPENED TO ME or any other cis person, but nonbinary author Dani Finn has been suspended for saying it

appalling hypocrisy, @moderation.bsky.app
it appears that @bsky.app have suspended the account of @jessiegender because a trans person saying "I wish ill on JK Rowling" is against the rules, so let me say with my loud cis voice that I too wish ill on all perpetrators of hate speech against trans people

reinstate Jessie, this is ridiculous

I was explaining to my Ukrainian colleague the phrase ‘There’s no such thing as a free lunch’. She told me the equivalent in Ukrainian is ‘The only free cheese is in the mousetrap’ - which is so much better

When you're an autistic kid, they tell you to work harder to fit in so you can avoid social isolation and bullying. But even if you can do that, the best you can hope for from barely fitting in is skeptical tolerance and shallow friendships that are easily dropped.

"For 17 weeks, I’ve been in constant pain, going back and forth… I said from the start I felt it was cancer."

"Not one doctor did the scans or blood tests I begged for whilst crying on the floor in agony. Instead, they dismissed me, gaslit me, and told me it was nothing, that I was overreacting."
Georgia O'Connor, U.K. boxer, dies at 25 after saying doctors 'gaslit' her on cancer concerns for months
O'Connor announced her cancer diagnosis in January, saying, "Not one doctor took me seriously."

Still mad about this.
Delayed diagnosis and misdiagnosis costed her 20 years.

Doctors chose to believe 21 year old Black woman had schizophrenia, but it was later found she had treatable condition: lupus.

She was nonverbal and non responsive, reversed with treatment.
They would have said dementia if she were older.

this was a good-faith question and I’m sharing the answer because there’s a key piece of context that helps clarify this. a GoFundMe is not a Kickstarter, paying out all at once. you can draw down weekly if you want. that 25k might be grocery money for a family of 10 in a place where flour is $200
Not like it's your job to educate us, but I'm asking the following cause you may know... I'm always confused when someone is saying "I just need $100" or "I haven't eaten", but the GFM is for like $30k with $25k fulfilled. That's what makes me think they're scams, but maybe I'm misunderstanding??

Insane. Slight young woman traveling with mom to see U.S soldier husband.

Strip-searched twice. Disappeared in the afternoon into the next day.

No calls. Given no food.

Finally, before being put on a plane, had 3 min. call w/husband who cried inconsolably.

Husband has decided to leave the Army.
Australian woman, a former police officer, was detained, jailed overnight and deported from the US despite traveling there legally on a tourist visa to visit her US military husband.

Is there no end to our shameful behavior?

In my opinion capacity building is a very ancient and out of date way to look at disability. It should be available as an option where it is relevant for individuals, but making it the default, the basis of all supports, is incredibly ignorant.

When doctors and healthcare professionals start a sentence with "most patients..." I need to stop listening.

Being Autistic with a rare disease and multiple chronic illnesses, "most patients" is not remotely applicable to me.

It is usually misleading and harmful.

The refusal of treatment centers to require masking around immunocompromised people is absolute medical malpractice and, not to mention, brutally cruel and unethical.
