Someone on Twitter who doesn't follow me said I come off as indistinguishable from MAGA because I criticize Biden era policies, and it's so strange because if they followed me they'd know I'm full of ample criticism for all politicians and constantly asking where the grim reaper is lmao

Given that a ton of people are about to be kicked off Medicaid and food assistance, I will be trying to do more mutual aid threads over here in the hopes that we can connect folks who need help with folks willing to help. Fuck this country man

In between the stairs you can see a tiny green frog. This is hilarious to me because I once lived somewhere a frog could slip between the cracks of some shitty concrete stairs and hop out, scaring the daylights out of me 😂

Watching videos of queer folks who have been around way longer than me talking about their fears and their fights and I can't keep it together. I wish I could be more involved in my communities than I am

Maybe it's because I spent my middle school years beating up Nazis, but I don't get anyone wanting to try to debate them.

There's no debate. Just a fist to the face.

Giving them air to breathe just lets them read off the big book of slurs like they're taking attendance. Ask me how I know. 😐

If I see someone out in public wearing MERCH for that fucking concentration camp, I cannot be held responsible for my actions because the FUCK

For Disability Pride Month the senate said why don't we kick a bunch of people off Medicaid and close rural hospitals, wonderful

There are so many people who are disabled but NOT officially on disability bc it's SO hard to get who rely on Medicaid for their medical care who deserve better

It's Disability Pride Month, so why don't we try to meet some needs for folks!

If you're disbaled, share your cfing/💸🔗/wishlist/website/art/twitch channel- literally whatever can make you feel more supported!

If you're able, go through the thread and choose someone's day to brighten!🌞

If you want to oppose fascism but you stopped wearing an n95 in public, bad news: you’ve been facilitating fascism via ableism, one of its favorite tools.

Good news: you can learn from this error! By resuming masking, you protect marginalized folks & resistance movements.

Every time I am forced to use my limited energy to go be asked invasive and weird questions, I become somehow more convinced that every single human person should just have a hefty stipend with no questions asked (and control on prices) until we abolish it all

There are so many financial literacy workshops for poor people, but they do not account for the fact that most people just legitimately need more money. It's not a spending issue or a budget issue. It's a lack of funds. Like this person said, try living on less than 900/mo
Ppl love to conflate poverty & disability with incompetence.

$861/month of disability income to live off of is significantly below the poverty line. The average studio apartment alone in my area is double that. I promise you, budgeting & financial literacy skills aren't the fucking issues here.

It is really wild to me how people get so angry about someone going to a con sick, but then they don't mask at the con. My dude YOU could have been the one who brought it there and got everyone sick because spread is often asymptomatic or presymptomatic. Like 30-60% of the time, you're contagious
I keep seeing posts from people testing positive for Covid after going to a convention. The scary part is that most don't even test for it.

I keep seeing people angry at others for going to cons sick. While never masking at cons or doing anything to reduce risk of spreading it.

My Crohn’s and my allergy to TNF-inhibitors are thought by my doctors to have both been triggered into action by a “mild” case of mono I had at 21.

It felt like “just a cold” at the time.

Now I’m fully disabled, & then every single condition I have has been made worse thanks to Covid & Long Covid.
Onset of MS after EBV (a very common viral illness) takes an average of 10 years

We are already seeing COVID trigger autoimmune disease, ⬆️ risk of heart attack/stroke, and more

Folks w a disease that has a viral component are warning you, and you're like nah I'm too good for that to happen to me

This kid on my TV just accidentally burned the host without even realizing it😂 They were asking about what young voters want, and they were like do you think they'd say, and he goes well most young people haven't been to a senior citizen home so I don't think they'd say that 💀

After learning how much DNA is stored in your teeth, I cannot BELIEVE parents are just willingly handing that to a fairy like its a joke

If I'm supposed to keep my name secret from them, why is my DNA being handed over?!

I know we've all seen that humidity map and said oh shit, so this link is one of the easiest explanations of wet bulb temperature and WHY it matters

At some point, the air gets too wet for your sweat to matter. That explanation makes sense to someone who already understands the concept of dry heat

Do NOT share the faces of protesters. Do not share photos of protesters where faces are not blurred out. We have to keep each other safe, and getting your comrade arrested is NOT it. It does not matter if they're not doing anything illegal in the photo.
We have one request: livestream, take photos, and share everything you see. Don’t let them control the narrative. Tomorrow will be powerful and we can’t wait to see you out there.

I feel like enough of you are the right kind of nerd to appreciate this cool copper rose Joy gave me! Copper changes color when it is heated to different temperatures, and that's why you have this beautiful gradient here. Chemical reactions cause patina- the green leaf!

I'm so confused by people who share photos of cops pepper spraying people sitting down and then also sharing posts telling people to be peaceful and sit down. Like do you...want them pepper sprayed or gassed or hit with KIPs?? You've seen it happen, you just shared it!

Setting a robot car on fire is way less violent than shooting unpredictable coated metal cores (aka "rubber bullets," an intentionally soft name for something with a METAL CORE) at human people but okay

The true gay agenda is when your women's soccer teams play each other on your half-iversary and you SAY you hope both teams have fun but privately your own agenda is hoping that your team wins!🌈⚽️

I'll probably post some more pictures later, but @direfoxicorn.bsky.social and I had a really, really lovely time celebrating a fantastic 6 months together💜

People are horrified that that republican said we are all going to die anyway- and they should be!- but you know you've been displaying the same attitude toward disabled people the last few years right?
