My mother, trying to justify the draconianishly strict rules for me (17, honors student) vs virtually free rein for my brother (13, chronic Behavior Problems):
He won't follow rules anyway, so why bother making them?
(Me: So if I were DISobedient, I'd be punished LESS?
Her: Uh, yeah? Eventually.)

Wow. Judge Howell is worried that if she orders DOGE to leave the USIP building it could turn into an “armed standoff” over unwillingness to vacate, and points out law enforcement has shown willingness to help DOGE. Asks if we’ll need foreign mediators to come in.

That moment when everyone's Emergency Alert goes off at the same time in the diner and the silence lasts 3 seconds longer than you'd expect so you decide to finish your lunch before checking to see how many countries the moron has declared war on, but it's just springtime in El Paso with 65mph gusts

Who wants to move to the frozen north with me, miles from the nearest fast food joint or convenience store, and renovate a huge dilapidated building despite having multiple disabilities and zero renovational skills?

As a disability advocate, I’m regularly trolled by people who say “survival of the fittest!” And then tell me I don’t deserve support, medical care or a meaningful life.
They don’t understand what “survival of the fittest” means.

I had a dream in which I bought a house at 4448 Trigon (St? Rd? idk) and that address was so powerfully important it has been bonking around in my subconscious all day.
Google gives me nothing meaningful (to me) but that address keeps screaming at me like I should recognize it. Anybody else?

Guys, I'm not sure how much more I can keep coming here.
I just logged on for about 15 mins & had to go throw up.
There is no one in my 3D world I can unload to about the stuff going on; I only associate with a few people and none support 47, but they are unable/unwilling to hear any of this.

“…no amount of posting or passive info consumption is going to substitute the hard, unsexy work of organizing”
I would argue that sick & disabled folks have used social media to organize and mobilize. Some of us can’t protest in the streets or meet in person but we made a difference

Watching Trump manifest his idea of "making America great again" reminds me of sitting in a diner across from my father in his final years with Alzheimer's, watching him alternate adding Sprite and orange juice to his coffee.
"Does it taste good yet?"
"... No."
And he'd add a little more.

Officially either actively crying or fighting to avoid it for all waking hours x3 days running. Last week's immediate crisis is still in limbo and there's nothing more I can do and the helplessness of everything is making me feel like I'm about to have a heart attack.
