If you study the successful rebellions and resistance and civil rights movements of the past, you will note that “people who spend their time publicly bumming out everyone around them by emphasizing how totally fucked everything is” do not play a central role, or indeed, any role at all

New investigation: After Oregon invested $20m for drug addiction services, counties spent the funds on prosecutors, sheriffs, police gadgets + cars.

I got records revealing how law enforcement used $ meant for treatment, as providers face major cuts + patients are stuck on waiting lists to get help

As the state abandons decriminalization, treatment grants are going to sheriffs and district attorneys: ‘that might be two or three case managers’

With Trump reportedly planning to end the IRS Direct File program, there's no better time to remember how TurboTax owner Intuit spent two decades fighting to prevent Americans from filing their taxes online for free.

(Published 2019)
Inside TurboTax’s 20-Year Fight to Stop Americans From Filing Their Taxes for Free
Using lobbying, the revolving door and “dark pattern” customer tricks, Intuit fended off the government’s attempts to make tax filing free and easy, and created its multi-billion-dollar franchise.

Please don’t let this be another case of relegating supporting trans people to “trans people are so cool and valid uwu”

Support trans charities
Support trans artists
Speak up when you witness transphobia
Educate yourself on trans issues/community

Don’t be complacent
Stop supporting bigots

Disability can happen to anyone. It’s the only minority group you can join at any point in time. Caring about Medicaid cuts is caring about your future. Caring about accessibility is caring about your future. Seeing disabled people is seeing your inevitable future.

If you believe that only the “fit” should survive and the rest are excusable deaths, that’s eugenics. Every life is important. Every disabled person is worthy of life. Disability is part of nature. If you live long enough, you will become disabled. We’re all vulnerable and all valuable.

You should care about disability justice because it’s the right thing to do. There’s no justice without inclusion.

If that doesn’t convince you, remember that everyone is only temporarily abled.

If you live long enough, you’ll become disabled. It can happen in an instant & no one is the exception.
