I'm having one of those moments again where I have to shake myself aggressively again. I've been sitting here for days trying to figure out why I'm so tired and am having a hard time moving.

And its like.. duh. Chronically ill. ME/CFS. Its right there in the name even. Bacon please. 😩

thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting.

now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

Also please don’t feel guilty.

You can’t resist if you don’t survive.

Protests aren’t always accessible or safe.

We all have different disabilities, boundaries and limits.

Do what you can when you can!

That’s more than enough.

Survival is resistance.
Disabled folks feeling guilty for not protesting today: *it is not your fault* that organizers don’t make an effort to make protests accessible and don’t encourage masking

And despite what folks on Bluesky would have you believe, there are MANY ways to resist and protests don’t have to be your way

I have to remember when i feel really discouraged over what I *cannot* do, I actually have much better function than I did even just a few years ago. I was reminding myself while making dinner that some of the things I'm doing right now, was just not possible a few years ago. There has been progress

So many folks in my mentions feeling terrible for not being able to protest today b/c of disability, illness, or mental health: GIVE YOURSELF GRACE

It’s GOOD for us to find as many ways to fight as possible. The bigger the variety of resistance the better. All you have to do is anything. That’s it.

to my mind the woman who dies of sepsis because of antiabortion laws, or the person who dies because they can't afford insulin -- these are just as much victims of political violence as the man shot through the throat while making a racist speech

Important thread
This is because of the Online Safety Act, and UK folks had better get used to doing this because every site on the internet that "is likely to be accessed by children" and has users in the UK will be doing this as of 25 July; that's Ofcom's deadline.
Starting July 25, Bluesky will require users in the UK to scan their face, upload an ID or verify their identity with a bankcard.

I realize that platforms feel they have no choice but to comply with the government surveillance schemes, but shocking nonetheless.
