“But the people who died had preexisting conditions.” So what? Does that mean their lives didn’t matter? Does that mean they weren’t important? Disabled people can hear you when you excuse our deaths. Our lives have value.

I'm starting a local community based care network. What types of tasks do you think would be most helpful to you as a disabled person?
So far I have things like cooking, cleaning, med pick ups, landscaping, personal care, and shopping.

Almost all of the "worst parts" of being disabled come from living in an ableist society built for abled bodies

What do my disabled friends on here use to distract themselves from pain? I'm at like 8 or 9 today and the weed is not helping 🥲😮💨
I love TV for that. Usually mindless or funny shows that don't use emotional energy.
I also love love love audiobooks for this

I only made it to chapter two of I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings so far and OH BOY I was shocked by the ableist undertones. I expected the C slur being that it was 1969 but wow
Any recommendations for similar books that don't refer to disability as an embarrassment to kids & a "defect?"

My medications retail for more than most people make in a year.
Autoimmune diseases just kind of happen. This could be any one of his voters a year or two from now.
I can't for the life of me understand why poor people are fighting to privatize the entire health insurance market.

"....falls on deaf ears" and "they are blind to..." are more examples of ableist language that's a part of our daily vernacular.
Say what you mean instead of using disabilities as a metaphor for all things "bad."
Do you mean they're ignoring something very serious?? Say that then

If you need workplace/school accomodations (including subtitles, attendance leniency, etc) or need to use adaptive equipment (glasses, orthotics, etc)...
then you ARE disabled. Why would you refuse to use that title- the one that helps you get these things, if you didn't view disability as bad?

I've noticed that most (currently) non-disabled Americans seriously overestimate the amount of assistance we get from the government & from health insurance.
Copays on wheelchairs AFTER insurance is thousands.
Reliable transportation is not available to many disabled people.
There isn't help.

They tell themselves we’re faking, not trying hard enough or that we don’t really want to get better.
That if we were committed enough - we would find help.
That if we were sick enough - help would find us.
They twist themselves in knots to avoid facing the reality that help is not coming /2

“If you were really that sick you would have more help.”
We’ve all heard it - from those we love & folks who should know better.
People deny the severity of chronic illness while embracing the incorrect notion that help is available.
They can SEE our suffering but they won’t accept it 🧵/1

I wonder what percentage of poor and disabled people are okay to die?
I hope you're all ready to absolutely revolt if/when they start taking our healthcare.

Anyone else remember when Dr. Oz said that it was fine for 2–3% of schoolchildren to die?
Yeah, he’s in charge of Medicaid and Medicare now.

Listening to RFK's claims that clean drinking water and vaccines cause Autism, and I just have to ask.
Why does the world hate us so much?
Like literally, is Autism so cursed that you'd rather die or be sick than be Autistic? What's so scary about us?

This is why it can be difficult for me, as someone with an autoimmune disease who was very safe but got long covid anyways after ONE infection, to see people complaining about becoming disabled after the 4th, 5th, 6th infection
