Hela Bella Mozzarella looking cute.

'Did you even say thank you?'

When America has your back — the weekly illustration from The Economist

Zelenskyy refuses to lick boots and kiss rings. That’s the problem. He’s not subservient enough. Zelensky has been to hell and back which none of these traitors can possibly fathom.

#StandWithUkraine

Stopped at the store tonight, got gas tonight. Should be good to go for tomorrow. Let’s do this!

It’s not a bug, it’s a feature. Eugenics wrapped in terms like efficiency, fraud, waste & abuse.

Revolution would be an amazing birthday present.

I’m supposed to fly to a conference this summer in Minneapolis. I may look into alternate methods of travel. I’m scared to fly for the first time in my life.

No one is immune from disability. It can happen to anyone at anytime, regardless of how 'young and healthy' you are. Stop believing you will be the exception, and start engaging in disability justice. It's far easier to fight for better support and treatment while you still have your health.

This is your daily reminder that it's a coup.

My husband just sent a message to his parents and siblings laying out that their support of the MAGA agenda is threatening him and our boys who are all blind. Crickets as far as a response. Their racism, hatred of LGBTQ+, and myopic worldview was more important than their loved ones.

When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty.

No. Based on purely anecdotal evidence of my in-laws inability to see and acknowledge the downfall of our constitutional republic in real time.

Uncle Sam “Motherfucker” Jackson!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Using Personal Jesus by Depeche Mode in a He Gets Us ad is continued proof that people don’t bother to research meaning or intention of a band’s or artist’s lyrics before using them. See: Born in the USA, Independence Day, etc.

Yep. Don’t you dare let your condition get in the way of them feeling good about themselves about doing the bare minimum.

The way I hollered “THEY BOTH SUPPORT TRUMP!!!” as I rolled my eyes in disgust.

The 19% that are unsure need to wake the fuck up and look around. The 27% who said no are people who didn’t pay attention in history class and will stand idly by playing their fiddle as Rome burns.

Jesus Christ on a pogo stick. Start flipping tables and punching Nazis for crying out loud.

Shit is broken as fuck. We all know that. So if you happen to be looking for someone to play nice, shut up and smile, you’re in the wrong fucking place and you have the wrong fucking girl. Cuz that sure as shit ain’t this moment in time and it sure as shit ain’t me.

When does someone else’s apathy for what’s happening and their inability to stand up for themselves become a detriment? I’m struggling to stay connected with a certain person in my life for this reason. The apathy and unwillingness to fight goes against everything I was taught and believe.

Ableism is blaming disabled people on how their needs are a burden on the system rather than blaming the system on how inaccessible things are for disabled people.

All of the so-called "patriots" who are cheering the felon's dismantling of DEI is indicative as to why it was needed in the first place. That's right. There are people among us who never wanted women, the disabled, or people of color to have equal opportunities. True story☕️

Disability is not a personal or moral failing. Everyone is one accident, infection or stroke of bad luck from becoming disabled. When someone asks for help, give it freely and without strings. Don’t judge them or tell them to “try harder”. One day it’ll be your turn.

Now more than ever.

See here’s the catch. If you’re not a prosperity gospel loving, immigrant hating, LGBTQIA+ bashing, Nazi sympathizer Evangelical, then you’re not “Christian” in their eyes.

Don't forget to include disabled people in your resistance. The more revolutionary you become, the more likely you'll join the disability community. To fight back and get out alive is almost always to become disabled in some way. Disabled people know how to adapt and fight continuously. You need us.

Yep. When telling people that including disability when speaking about diversity, equity and inclusivity needs the be intentional so it’s not ignored or glossed over receives pushback - it’s infuriating.
