This is a moral fight between Right and Wrong. It isn’t time to retreat from it, to parse out legal trespassing as reality is being tirelessly shifted.
Stop looking to the referees and institutions. They’ve failed you. Stop expecting someone to save us, they won’t. This is on us.

In a few years, it will be a luxury food and MAGA will go hunting for scapegoats and excuses. Politicians will bend over backwards trying to please them. The media will act like this is not a problem 100 percent of humanity's own making.
That's the story.

Them: “I’m sick of subsidizing their groceries when mine cost so much”
SNAP does not drive up grocery prices.
That would be inflation, tariffs & corporate greed.
For every $1 spent on SNAP there’s a $1.50 going back into the economy.
While you’re blaming the poor, the rich are robbing everyone.

I keep not having the words to say what Alice Wong's work meant to me, and I'm realizing that that's because it would be like trying to say why water was important.
She was a part of everything, when I was coming to understand my disability. Everywhere, with passion and humor and grace.

Watching disabled people around the world mourn Alice is a reminder of the good aspect of the internet. 30 years ago, few people outside of SF would ever have known Alice existed. I never would have met her. The internet connected us all. Let’s honor Alice’s memory by using that power and community.
My social media is wall-to-wall love for the incomparable Alice Wong, and I need more words. What captures sadness and/also affection for a community that knows what's been lost?

If no one in your timeline is grieving the loss of Alice Wong today then you’re not hearing from enough disabled people or even people who listen to disabled people.
That’s a massive segment of society to which you will likely belong some day. Might want to turn an ear toward them sooner than later

Disabled people tried to warn you.
We said that the rising eugenicist sentiment that accelerated during the “back to normal” phase of Covid would eventually hurt everyone
The new healthcare plan for America appears to be:
Don’t get sick
If you do get sick, it’s your fault
If you can’t pay, die

Every time a tech entrepreneur says “we don’t need to stop global warming because AI will” I want to slap them with a fish that says, “if a superhuman intelligence came into being and we asked it how to stop global warming, it would say ‘stop burning fossil fuels, you fools.’”
I’m going to regret asking this, but… what mechanism are people proposing whereby AI will “end scarcity”?
This feels like literal underpants gnomes thinking, and as I never tire of pointing out, it’s being driven by a lot of the same actual people

People often push the disabled to take risks with our health.
They think if it’s already “that bad” who cares if it gets worse
We care.
Our baselines mean everything to us.
Whatever limited function we have left is always worth protecting.
You don’t get it until you get it.

Can’t emphasize enough that Mamdani *absolutely* has “lol fuck you, your hate makes me stronger” energy, he just delivers it with a huge charming smile and a welcoming message about making life affordable
Nifty little data point here. Don’t chase the manosphere into hell. Give young men a positive masculinity to aspire to.
Republicans thought they had a permanent hold over young men. They didn't.
Spanberger wins men 18-29 by 14%, Sherrill by 10%, and Mamdani by a stunning 40%.

Obama famously harnessed a lot of the same grassroots energy to gain office & then allowed all that energy to dissipate rather than using it to help him govern. I hope Mamdani can figure out another model. He will need all the allies he can get.
