Dear god. That’s utterly fuckin horrific. This shit is why we have a Disability Day of Mourning, because a lot of abled people think it’s “undignified” to be sick.
A NEW BC Supreme Court judgment just dropped granting the petition of Health Authority to prevent a husband who is a strong pro MAiD advocate from killing his wife - a plan he called 'dignicide.'

WSJ: you know who’s had it too good for too long? People with invisible disabilities. Let’s stir up the ableists and cause problems for everyone in the airport!

So a bunch of ignorant arseholes don't understand ambulatory wheelchair users exist and the WSJ considers it newsworthy and them the victims in all this.
Remember, Proj 25 added A for accessibility to make it DEIA that they want to eradicate.
This article is anti-accessibility propaganda.

YOU DUMB FUCKS. THIS IS ME.
I have a scooter. I can walk. I can't, however, walk through 80 miles of airport. I can walk onto an airplane or through hallways. I can't walk the .5 mile to the convention center.
People, get smarter, it's embarrassing at this point.

Rob Reiner either made your favorite movie, or made somebody you know’s favorite movie. If you’re a Californian, he’s also part of the reason you or your friends can get married. He has changed more lives for the better than this asshole commenting on him ever did.

The cultural impact of Rob Reiner cannot be understated. Legend isn't big enough a word. It goes to 11. You can't handle the truth. As you wish. I'll have what she's having. I'm your number one fan. You guys wanna see a dead body? The very idea of a bucket list. The West Wing.

Shocked by the awful death of Rob Reiner. I spoke with him for over an hour last night. We talked about his work and his plans for the future. I always enjoyed his company. We met at his Dad's in 1975. Last thing he said to me was "See you next year.." Such a terrible end. Such a sweet man.

Well, that’s being the forever obedient vassal state of an empire for you: it’s not just for fun times like joining in the Emperor’s aggressive wars and issuing belligerent threats from behind his back. You also have to slap on a grin and look happy while you’re getting screwed by him.

Calibri is an easier font for people with low sight to read.
This is another aspect of Project 2025, they added a letter making it DEIA.
The goal of the Trump regime is to remove diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility.

Peggie lost 43 out of 47 of her claims and the judge specifically said that trans women were not a danger to cis women.
She also stated that she did not accept that the SC judgement amounted to a bathroom ban.

Lots of jokes about a "woke" font but a shift from a sans-serif to a serif font is actually bad for inclusion!
Calibri is a much more readable font than Times New Roman, so this does make things worse for e.g. those with dyslexia and those with low vision.

The secretary of state called it a "wasteful" diversity move, according to an internal department cable seen by Reuters.

3 cognitive tests?
Someone in his inner circle definitely think there's cause for concern
Previous presidents will have absolutely taken that test or similar. They just aren't stupid enough to brag about it
Plus if you find a cognitive test really hard, that's an indication there's a problem

Every part of this is bonkers. The intro is bonkers. The transition to his health is bonkers. The mention that other presidents didn't need cognitive exams is bonkers. The claim that this screening test is somehow hard is bonkers. The idea that criticism of him is treason is bonkers. All of it.

After MTG lied about me for weeks, she said that she felt bad for my unborn child because he'd have me as a mother. Her rhetoric led to threats against my family.
No one, even her, should receive threats like those, but I'd like to see her own up to the role she played in creating them for others.

she was called as a witness to give testimony about Sandie Peggy's objectively horrible behaviour, some of which was targeted at said Doctor.
The courts should face consequence for the danger they have put the rest of her life in. Again; *as a victim*.
