I had a suicide last night because of this bill and I know of several disabled folks who have the same plans if it passes the senate because they will lose everything. I cannot even send them to the hospital because they will just be released in 72 hours with a 50k bill they cannot pay

Sensory overload from everything, including academia and culture under attack...there are times when I wonder if I will die from illness or suicide, due to this regime.
Feel free to give it a try 😉

We are all disgusted with the U.S. President and the cowardly administration.
People absolutely deserve better from their leaders.
The stress is bone crushing.
I did get 4 MRI's & a CAT scan this week, blood work last week - trying to at least get a base line before it all
(& I) goes away.
Sucks when your own government shows you it's more cost effective if you die.

For the record, there are places in southern BC that are incredibly hot all year long. I can’t go there because it’s too hot.
Look at Osoyoos and the okanagan area.
Unbearably hot on the summer and unbelievably cold in the winter.
Pretty sure it won’t be long until you can claim refugee status.
Retired crisis worker, so I totally get what you're saying here.
My DMs are open if you need an ear.

There’s enough sunshine for everyone.
That was much lower stakes than this bill. The pressure is on.
You noticed how little reporting there is on bird flu? It's not because the threat has downgraded. It's because they're suppressing the research and reporting.
And we are kept ignorant of other dangerous diseases that might be spreading because they've cut the federal public health people who would have kept us informed.

And whenever I'm reading skeets like these, I have certain thoughts and emotions which could be summarized in #Luigi.
she's trans. I'm so glad she got this through VA Medicaid, but so worried about the future. I need to make more money.
Welcome to tRumps future for our country if the Senate gives him his way! Wake up Senators your family will be affected as well!
They don't care if you die.

This should not happen in America.
It shouldn't happen anywhere! 💔
We will see if the Rs violate the filibuster rules again.
What Ds need to do is build a coalition. Find a few who are finally seeing what the end looks like.
Unfortunately, there are some Dems that simply refuse to acknowledge the seriousness of what Trump is trying to do.
Right now, a coalition of actual, non-corrupt politicians and law enforcement could turn this around.
Do they exist? I don't know any more.
You'd need a handful of McCains and Romneys to make it work.
There was a case few yrs ago,a young disabled woman in Ontario, lost all her home assistance.
She felt her only recourse was to apply for MAID (medical assist. in dying)
Our system is horrible at caring physically and emotionally for our pts here in 🇺🇸
And it’s just going to get worse🆘
I hope everyone burns up the capitol switchboard phone lines at 202-224-3121 to demand GOP senators oppose this bill.
We can still stop this. We must.
We must find a way to stop this madness.🤬
They. Are. Waging. War. On. Us.
Understand that.
He is ruining people's lives for fun and perceived harm others have "caused" him.
He needs to be put in a home. With bars on the windows.
Or water moccasins.
Anything poisonous really.
For those who were thinking they can’t make it or want to give up please don’t. It can’t stay like this and it won’t stay like this. Eventually, people are gonna wake up and start fighting back.
Sucks that I can never find a source article for this, but the one who told me does NOT make stuff up, & it makes far too much sense - I'm in that group.
It's a pleasant surprise that polls show massive opposition to Medicaid cuts.
Majority now seem to realize:
Medicaid is a safety net for all of us
There are a few more now, but not many and not enough for sure.
This isn’t the America I was taught to love.
Watching fr 🇨🇦 in horror & helplessness at the cruelty & desperate hopelessness that's being bred in the US. It'll lead 2 more & more tragedies until ur country rises & the whole bad lot of politicians r ousted.
Sending strength, hope & (gentle hugs)

If anything, the most vulnerable will be LEAST able to do all of this, absent lots of assistance.

I’m sorry about your friend may their memory be a blessing.
Screaming at GOP for starters, demanding they stand up. They need to deal with people.
One type of black salve is ichthammol. You want an olfactory experience? Get a tube of that and open it up.
People losing everything because of tariffs and firings may add to the former as well.
The rampant avoidable disease & untreated women tally too.
The whole regime is complicit in these deaths.
The plan right now is to stay alive, that even living out of spite right now is a defiant act of rebellion, it may not be much, but I'm not going to do their extermination for them...
This GOP Killing Bill will hurt them too, maybe the last wave, no one left to ask for help
I know it's crazy, but you remember all those novels where some live in utopian cities and others live brutal lives in the wasteland surrounding them? The Silicon Valley tech-bros look at that, listened to Curtis Yarvin and went "Hell, yeah, let's do it."

We have Richard Nixon to thank for allowing health insurance companies to become for-profit. In the late 60s/early 70s. Red tape and costs have skyrocketed since; profit motive doesn’t belong in healthcare
Overwhelming right now for us
See @generalstrikeus.bsky.social
Strikes & boycotts. It has worked in the past. It's hard in every way. If we wait too much longer, nothing will work. Don't know what more people need to see to be willing to get uncomfortable.
I'm sorry.
The needless loss of a life, but almost as equal is the number of posts I see here willing to wait it out, or wish it away! People are dying folks, the US is burning, there is no time left to wait. You think your politicians are on your side!
Stand up, Step and Fight.
