The U.S. Senate is currently considering a budget reconciliation bill that quietly includes language that could devastate our public lands. It would:
- Make over 250 million acres of public land eligible for sale
- Mandate the sale of at least 2 million acres of Forest Service and BLM land
- Make over 250 million acres of public land eligible for sale
- Mandate the sale of at least 2 million acres of Forest Service and BLM land

My disability eligibility decision was made two decades ago. In that time my disability COL adjustments have increased by <$200/mo. I raised my child in studio & 1/br apts I couldn’t afford when rent was ~$750. The “market rate” for those units has since tripled. This is not a COLA, it’s a JOKE.
The current COLA (cost of living adjustment) for social security for 2026 is a meager 2.5% and has not ever kept pace with inflation.
What a joke. When we give money to corporations it's called subsidy, but for disabled people it's called "entitlements" 1/2

The final round of anti-trans youth bills have passed the State House & Senate. Today HB 10 was signed by NH Gov Ayotte. It forces teachers to “out” students to an abusive family, & to tell parents who sexually abuse their child that a child has made a report. Take action.

Ableism is everywhere.
When you say “only the vulnerable have to worry”… that’s ableism.
When you tell someone to “just try harder”… that’s ableism.
When you ask if someone has pre-existing conditions? That’s ableism.
No social justice without disability justice and inclusion.

Hi everyone! We've gotten a lot of rain recently, and a lot of our unhoused neighbors have been flooded out of their tents. Weather aside, people are constantly dealing with gear that's wearing out and breaking due to heavy use, being stolen, or being destroyed during sweeps or by hostile neighbors.

This.
The “covid is only a threat to the vulnerable” narrative primed the pump for the eugenics movement we’re seeing now.
It conditioned people to see the disabled & vulnerable as acceptable losses. People who were probably going to “die anyways”.
It paved the way for fascism.
