"I want your phone numero por favor..." Yes, Drake actually wrote that (maybe) and looked at it and decided it should go into a song on his new album. I mean, I guess he's trying to get into someone's quinciniera...🤷🏼😅

Breaking: Hours after Elon Musk reassured Cabinet that efforts to contain the Ebola outbreak in Uganda had only been “accidentally canceled very briefly,” the Trump administration terminated at least four of the five contracts for Ebola-related work in that country. nyti.ms/4ikHi1Q

Please read through this thread with an extensive list of importantly vital USAID contracts that have been terminated ILLEGALLY & call your reps today! You can use the @5calls.org app to make it quick & simple.

As someone who has Common Variable Immunodeficiency or CVID (which means my body just doesn't make antibodies from vaccines), I am BEGGING you to care about this issue & help me fight to keep vaccines accessible for those who can receive them. It's what helps to protect those of us who cannot. 💜💜💜

The reason I'm quote posting this meme over & over again is I'm trying to highlight that WE ARE ALL IN DANGER!!! Please call your reps daily, even if you just pick ONE THING per day to talk to them about. Even if your rep seems on board w/dismantling our nation, our consistent dissent CAN sway them!

Many people seem to think that certain things 'aren't enough' and so either don't do anything or are discouraged. To me, this is part of a learned helplessness AND also part of all or nothing thinking [very USian]. Doing small things ALL OF THE TIME is better than one big thing one time [maybe].+

Nothing received yet. 💸💕

This has been one hell of a month and we're still trying to keep from being evicted. We managed to pay off one month of what we owe, we also got hit with late fees and still owe $1682.34 and in three days rent is due again. We're drowning. ko-fi.com/johnniejae/g...

Every time I participate in my campaign I feel embarrassed. We shouldn't have to go this route, but the world has left us no choice. Despite the exhaustion and frequent account closures, I am writing again.. Please share and contribute if you can, so I can help my family🫶🏼 www.gofundme.com/AdhamMadi

Very little progress. 3 days to raise $2900 I need this to stay housed 💞💸 #mutualais #transmutualaid #helpsky

This is a very important thread and I encourage you to read it all the way through. Show up at the local offices of your reps and make your voices heard. Don’t quit. If we lose this, people will starve, lose Medicare, and die.

Perhaps you love babies and want them to have access to diapers? You can support Rain or Shine Diaper Fund that is handing out diapers & other supplies to people who need them every Monday. rainorshinediaperfund.org

It took them a month to show their true colors. House Republicans just voted to raise your taxes, cut your healthcare and your kids' education, and superfund stormtroopers to raid our neighborhoods.

WILL BE HOMELESS WITHOUT HELP ASAP URGENT HOUSING NEED 💕💸 #MutualAid #TransMutualAid

House Republicans just voted to gut Medicaid, which covers 1 in 5 Americans overall, including 41% of births and 63% of nursing home care. They also just voted to gut SNAP, on which 41 million food insecure Americans rely. This won’t just harm people. This will kill people. They own this.

Clapping for themselves like all Republican Congresspeople except ONE aren't spineless, cowardly CRETINS.

"Darren Beattie, in repeatedly calling for sections of the country’s population to be sterilised. This apparent commitment to an extreme right-wing idea is the more concerning because the US has, in fact, sterilised large numbers of its residents without their full and informed consent in the past."

The real story: US to replace highly vetted EB5 visa, which requires foreign investors to do actual business & create jobs in the U.S., with a program that essentially sells green cards to wealthy individuals for $5 million (paid to the govt to skip vetting). www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

I think all three patterns are great!!! The strawberry one is giving Strawberry Shortcake vibes!!! 💜💜💜

Cutting Medicare and Medicaid is wildly unpopular. That's why they're trying to jam these draconian cuts through right out of the starting blocks, before the American people tune into what's happening. We need to buy time.

Four months today without our @tinu.bsky.social. We were hoping to get this done for her wonderful family before Christmas. Please help them during this impossible time. If you can't help, please share! 💖#ForTinu

Omg. This is horrifying. Congresswoman Kelly Morrison just revealed that Medicaid covers HALF of the kids in the United states, more than 40% of the births — and Republicans want it gone. The Republican funding bill impacts ALL OF US.

ACCOUNT IS OVERDRAWN BY $500 AND I ONLY HAVE A FEW DAYS TO BRING IT POSITIVE! PLEASE BOOST/DONATE! linktr.ee/jskylerinc #TransCrowdFund #DisabilityCrowdFund #BeAPatron #BIPOCMA #HelpSky #BlackSky 💸💕🏳️‍⚧️

alt text screenshots you post, especially ones containing transphobia. Not doing so forces trans people to see it without their consent. many of us will just block you if you spam that at us. alt text your images.

I called my reps, first time I have ever done so in my life. I wrote what I wanted to say in my notes app and said it over speaker. Please call, Im in a red state but we have to pressure them. Even if we didnt vote for them they still technically represent the district in which you live.

We still have to finish paying rent, just got a rude reminder from one of the owners. It's sad when being hospitalized and worrying about staying alive is a nice vacation from being worried and stressed about staying housed and alive. Yay 'Murica! *note caustic sarcasm* ko-fi.com/johnniejae/g...

Gonna need more non-disabled people to see stuff like this and understand that ableism is also one of the integral -isms the right is devoted to, so it should be jettisoned whenever and in whomever you encounter it

✂️ A cut to Medicaid will happen if the House Budget Resolution goes through next week. This will risk health insurance to US children & adults w/ low incomes and/or a disabilities. 📲 Call your congressperson and urge them to vote against the house budget resolution!

I’m currently working on two projects that will make a difference in people’s lives. With $250,000, we can make huge headway and the funds are nowhere in sight. I’m going to continue to point out the asymmetry of the current fight because too many people are uninformed.

Medicaid is the main source of funding for aging and disability care, including home and community-based care. Medicaid is critical to the well-being of many in our community. Check out this Protecting Medicaid Toolkit organized by energy levels. docs.google.com/document/d/1... #pwME #Medicaid

🚨 PLEASE boost! Nevra is not getting donations, she will become homeless stuck waiting for surgery in Pakistan No local family or organizations helping as she is unmarried and unable to work due to severe disabilities 🚨 She won’t survive without our help! Donate whatever you can! Thank you

Well...

funding our programs is a TREATY OBLIGATION. it's *illegal* for the federal government to not uphold their side of the bargain. they refuse to follow the law (which they always have! welcome to the club!) - finally see it now? can you see how horrendous this occupying government actually is?
