I’m Lavender, a queer Crip degenerate and suspected bog hag displaced to the city life. I make music and have dedicated my life to art, and always strive to orient myself around Disability Justice (an intro thread)

The care and sympathy requested have been denied. Upon review it has been determined that the services requested go against the collective good. To appeal this decision abolish health insurance and implement #UniversalHealthcare now

This is what has happened to us.
This is what has been done to us.
You probably know someone here.
Someone with #MECFS.
If we’re angry.
If we’re sad.
It’s because this has happened to us.
Please watch this video.
Please tell everyone.
This is what happened💔

🔗 below to sign the letter asking for an apology & retraction of this comment
I do feel that given his incredibly ill informed harmful comment he's not suitable for the role of Chairman of the @MEAssociation & he should step down
There's too much at stake for #pwME

replies felt weirdly discouraged on twitter (at least to me) but I really recommend getting back into the habit of telling artists directly when you like their stuff. not even in an engagement farming way, it just feels nice. nobody's day is going to be worse hearing that you like their work

I fear that so many chronically ill people will fall for RFK Jr. rhetoric on chronic illness because they're so desperate to get better. But RFK Jr. is not trustworthy when it comes to chronic disease research. I write this as someone who is chronically ill.

FELLOW LEFTISTS, fascism attacks disabled/vulnerable people first.

Abandoning them in a pandemic because political interests told you to, was a mistake!

Correct course!

The thing with clinicians working with patients on “pacing” programs is they may turn into “pacing up” if you’re not disciplined about it. It shouldn’t turn into graded activity by another name. A clear understanding and expectation of the program is required for both the patient and the clinician.
