Folks, I am so relieved. Today is the day my SNAP benefits load and I wasn't sure what was gonna happen due to all of the fuckery but I called and checked and it's all there! 😅

I was considering using it all up right away just in case, but I guess I'll trust it.

This is very interesting!

Not peer-reviewed or replicated yet and the study has limitations, of course. But a fascinating lead in one of the main theories of fibromyalgia.

My thoughts ⬇️
Medical Republic: 'Fibromyalgia finally gets a genetic fingerprint'

'Additionally, certain risk loci overlapped with long covid (BPTF) and ME/CFS (OLFM4, RABGAP1L/GPR52), two poorly characterised disorders, albeit with different lead variants.'

A massive global study links the chronic pain condition to 26 genes associated with brain signalling, marking a turning point in understanding its biological roots.

Okay, Alice. I won't let the bastards grind me down. I'll call on you as an ancestor and I will try to carry the light of a disabled oracle.

Thank you for everything. 💜
Gutted. We have lost a brilliant voice in the world. Rest in peace Alice Wong @sfdirewolf.bsky.social you were so inspiring to so many of us. Thank you for sharing all your words and for always shining a light on the disability community.

One way I have found to mourn someone is to set up a monthly sustaining donation to a mutual aid effort they cared about. If you can join me in honoring Alice Wong, @sfdirewolf.bsky.social with a sustaining donation today, please do. Thank you Alice, and I will not let the bastards grind me down.

Aaron, users have also repeatedly made it clear that we don’t want people on the website who are leading harassment campaigns against trans folks. what are you doing to keep users safe from this kind of behaviour?

users have spoken repeatedly that they don't want transohobic rhetoric here but you and Jay plainly don't give a shit and enable it

also transohobic rhetoric IS violent rhetoric

Trying to stay housed after suddenly having to move at the beginning of the month. Anything helps
In October I got notice to move very last minute, made a mutual aid post and it didn't meet the goal. But the need didn't go away. The goal is 265/1000 reposts appreciated. Thanks to everyone boosting and helping so far 🙏🏿

Just hearing about Alice Wong.

What a tremendous loss to the disability community and the world at large.

To those of you who knew her personally? So much love and comfort your way. This one hurts. 💔

And my brain is foggy dissociative soup so I'm getting offline.

Fellow abuse survivors - be careful. Be safe. Be gentle. 💜

I'm dissociating and unable to come up with a clever catch today but my household is struggling and could use some community support to get us through to a more stable place.

Tell me if you think this is possible or if I'm imagining things.

Our upstairs neighbors have this dog. We call him Woof Woof because that's exactly what he (or she??) sounds like when he barks.

I know dogs have really good hearing, but.

People need to realize that the way someone like Epstein worked is that they slowly work their way into other rich and powerful people's circles, get them into something incriminating (or find something incriminating on them), use it to make them complicit in everything else, and now they're in it.

With programs like SNAP and ACA on the line, we need more help than ever. As do so many other ppl who were already in need.

Help us pay rent and save up enough to fix our cars and get our cats vet care.

third thing: make lots more disabled people.
When the government decided to let COVID-19 loose, they decided at that exact same time to do two things.

Make life difficult and lonely for elderly and disabled people.

Kill elderly and disabled people by playing dress up and pretend it’s 2019, because we want to be “kind”.
