I felt this one tho my parents are getting better now that they are older probably because they started to realize when my mom started having more health issues.

I just see people 😊

illyriamoonsong.bsky.social•30 days ago

I hope you see their disabilities because that’s important.

adewright.bsky.social•30 days ago

I don’t know how else to once again say I just see people.

illyriamoonsong.bsky.social•30 days ago

Well you’re being disrespectful on someone’s post about seeing and respecting disabilities and you should apologise. I think they blocked you but I can show them your apology. Think about the impact of what you say on other people before commenting please.

Your opinion of a total stranger, you know absolutely nothing about is noted

illyriamoonsong.bsky.social•30 days ago

It was kindness but since you won’t take that you should fuck off since you’d rather be a “clueless bloke” than listen and learn something important.

I don't understand?

I assume this dingus is implying that it’s ‘divisive’ to acknowledge that some people are disabled which is why I’m gonna block ‘em.

I have never seen anyone as less or more due to ethnicity, ability or lack of abilities.
Male or female

I just see people, every single one unique, with different desires, & Needs.
If someone is struggling & I can help I will
All that ever mattered to me was if they are a good person or not

Would you refer to me as disabled?

This was an eye opener during COVID.

Never mind those who feel you are exaggerating OR flat-out lying about your disability .... that means you are just being lazy in their books.

There was a great article in The Guardian today about a new documentary that looks at how assisted dying is in part a way to cut health care costs. Not totally related to this post, but want to put it out there as it's relevance is completely on target.

"I want you to guarantee amount of work per day or week"

I cant, esp given none of my medical accommodations are met or taken seriously.
