Unless you die young and suddenly, you will experience disability. It’s a natural part of life & aging… yet most people fear it. They see it as a personal failure. Something to be avoided. Almost everyone believes they’ll be the exception, because they’ve been conditioned to see us as “less than”

Boiling with rage hearing on the radio that Labour is welcoming in Refugee Week with the announcement that instead of asylum hotels they’ll be expanding the Disastrous Dehumanising & MORE EXPENSIVE “Mass” accommodation sites at places like ex-army bases. There are not enough facepalms.

I just had the upsetting realization that by the time we hopefully finally rid ourselves of him for good, I’ll be nearly 30 years old. This man has consumed the entirety of my late teens and 20s.

I'm so tired. People staring, laughing, and now suddenly questioning me. I barely go out and I still get this treatment. Bears mentioning that if people were in real solidarity with us and kept masking too, we would not stick out like sore thumbs. Too afraid of looking different? We have no choice.

The Israeli occupation army committed a new massacre against Palestinian civilians this morning, as more than 30 citizens were martyred and about 100 others were injured with varying degrees of injuries, while they were waiting for humanitarian aid at the Netzarim axis, south of Gaza City.

Absolutely they would. How many women have or are raising kids on their own with no support from the man involved? It is a time to get this country back to sanity.

Abortion is not a “women’s issue”. It’s health care. Abortion affects entire family systems. Controlling access to abortion controls FAMILIES. All genders care about abortion. All genders need legal abortion. All PEOPLE have a right to bodily autonomy at all times. Without that, we have NOTHING.

When did you ever hear the BBC stating that it must alter “story selection” and “other types of output, such as drama”, to win the trust of Green voters, or of unrepresented people on the left? All the shifts are in just one direction. bylinetimes.com/2025/06/09/b...

Many disabled and neurodivergent people on here get direct requests for money, allegedly from families in distress abroad. Totally appreciating the awful situations many are in. But I recommend giving money through established charities with a good reputation - & only if you can afford it.

Whenever I try and raise awareness of the risk disabled people face when detained by ICE, I’m met with a chorus of voices asking “were they illegal?” Here’s the thing, it doesn’t matter if they’re here legally or not No human being should be made to suffer this way 🧵

You Will Kill Me was formed in Portland, OR, by people living with cancer, with chronic illness, who are trans, who are queer, who are single parents, who are on Medicaid, who use CHIP, who require ACA subsidies, and who overall run the gamut of the human experience.

RFK Jr. is absolutely poisonous. He has now caused Dr. Lakshmi Panagiotakopoulos, the person in charge of COVID19 vaccinations at the CDC, to resign. She did so because RFK Jr. demanded that the experts in charge of vaccine guidance listen to him and not to the scientific evidence.

It’s much more fun reading the comments about Kemi Badenoch’s latest #PMQs fucktangle than it is to actually suffer it on tv If the Tories have even a modicum of credibility left in them then they’ll get James Cleverly in to replace her asap Sadly their membership will scupper that for Jenrick

I think we’ve reached a boiling point when it comes to ICE. Today in Minneapolis, a militarized task force raided the beloved Lake Street taqueria, Las Cuatro Milpas—and the community was not having it. Agents from ICE, the DEA, FBI, ATF, IRS and HHS rolled up looking like they were ready for war.

Reform U.K. Ltd supporters . A racist form of anarchy. Tear it all down and send them back. Where truth doesn’t matter, facts are lies. Helped by social media and not tackled by the MSM. That is it. You cannot compete with that.
