👏👏👏

Congratulations Australia and #LaborParty's #Disability advocate #AliFrance!

She lost her leg in a car accident in 2011, sparking an interest in protecting the public #healthcare system

I feel like if your PRIDE parade is not disability friendly, it kind of....sucks. A lot. How can we say we are "inclusive" when disabled members of LGBTQAI+ can't attend?

No mention for people to use mask at least when sick (the bare minimum), walks are not picked for accessability for wheelchair and other aid users, and I have not seen any indoor meetings to be in anywhere bur bars among unmasked people.

Once more, I can't attend.

Shame.

Would getting rid of First Past the Post lessen the pressure to extreme polarization we see happening in politics so all those separate issues wouldn’t get lumped together?

Now the radical right (or whatever) gets to pick and choose which polarizing issue to rev up people’s rage

Rather than having the long difficult discussions with the #disability community about the #MAiD issue, for instance

In the States they overturned abortion and pivoted to bashing trans rights

Good afternoon, professor.

I would like to request a small extension for my assessment.

Unfortunately I completely forgot that I have adhd, and as such I drank a large McDonald's coffee biscoff frappe this morning. I now feel as though I could vibrate into the next dimension with anxiety.

You might be wondering how someone "forgets" that they have adhd? Well... it's the adhd.

Thank you for your understanding,
Aby.

PS: I can definitely recommend the McDonald's coffee biscoff frappe, but probably hold the ritalin chaser..

Has anybody had an authentic human interaction with this acct?

It seems very phishy to me. And I get especially momma bear about nefarious actor targetting/using marginalized groups.

Anyone know the jrp.town instance? I've not come across it before. But there's a tonne of small instances, so that's not a huge indicator.

@ned I don’t even know how people can say this after 2020.

Here in the US people who couldn’t go to work because of Covid mitigations were getting 60% of their income (except states have a max, so maybe not if they’re HIGH earners) PLUS an extra $600 a week. So some of these people were making more money by not going to work, which I think is fantastic.

The part that blew my mind was that they were mad about it. Or maybe they were just screaming about it on social media so people wouldn’t get mad at them for forgetting extra money? It was the weirdest thing

Even when people were getting more money and unemployment than at work, and getting pandemic food stamps, and they had rental assistance available to them if they needed it, and they could have paid sick days if they were sick, some of these weirdos were still screaming about not being able to work.

So yeah, you can’t tell me that people would choose not to work.

This was my favorite tweet of 2020:

Can't protest in person? Looking for a virtual event?

The COVID Long-Haulers Against Fascism group has an online meeting scheduled for Sat, May 3.

It starts at 1 PM Central (11 AM Pacific / 2 PM Eastern)

Details here:

mobilize.us/covidlonghaulersag

I'm planning to be there! 🤞

MobilizeGuerilla Advocacy Round 3 · COVID Long-Haulers Against FascismGUERILLA ADVOCACY: Let's take back our country! For 100 days, the world has watched Trump, Musk, and DOGE tear apart every fiber of the fabric that constitutes the United States. From mass firings in every sector to economic turmoil here and abroad. We need to continue pushing back relentlessly -- and we cannot leave anyone behind. COVID Long-Haulers Against Fascism is bringing the rally to YOU! Not everyone can get out to participate in person, but every person should have access to hear and be heard. And this week, we're joined by a fantastic crew of dedicated organizers in the public health, LGBTQIA+, disability, and creative communities. Gregg Gonsalves, epidemiologist Chantzy, long COVID advocate Paul Hennessy, public health advocate Sean Mullen, researcher and public health advocate Jae Moyer, LGBTQIA+ advocate Charis Hill, disability advocate John James, HIV advocate Peter Corliss, community organizer Chris Kocher, community organizer, former executive director of COVID Survivors for Change and Everytown for Gun Safety Suswati Basu, journalist Effie Seiberg, writer Most importantly, we'll explain what guerilla advocacy means, and how you can use it from wherever you are, whatever your abilities. If you have joined us previously and have tried this, please let us know! We may have journalists present, and the space will be recorded so people who are unable to participate at the time can be included as well. Capacity is limited to 1,000 participants, so we recommend logging in a bit early to make sure you can grab a spot. You will need a registered Zoom account to join, but lucky us! It's free. This is for our own protection and to keep the space focused on the task at hand: defending all that is good in this country, and addressing what is broken. We look forward to seeing you again or for the first time! If you have found ways to practice guerilla advocacy, please let us know. We'd love to hear from you!
