I want to talk about my path to #disability here. I have gone through a lot, and many I know are suffering similarly
In 2018, I found my fingers to be so numb I could not type
This was after years of being labeled a hypochondriac

I'm getting real tired of companies not giving a shit about their users, and making things so hard some people I care about are brought to tears - over things that should be simple.

I am in love with using Lego to do this

Also, DO NOT listen to organizers who tell you to be 'peaceful at all costs' - don't escalate, but you can't just lie there while they beat you, or, your #disabled friends and allies.

Ask your #boyfriend how #assassinscreed compares to #dating.
His answer may make your relationship very clear.

I'm wondering, did #elonmusk have these fridge magnets when he created #doge?
Because it took me an entire minute to be as smart as Elon.

#Hypochondria is an #idiopathic #diagnosis.
It does NOT EXIST as a condition.
Hypochondria is an undiagnosed condition, and a way for your doctor to ignore your complaints.
Convince me otherwise, please, many have failed in the past.

New theory: #trump heard people saying his wealth growth would be higher if he just put it in a fund following the S&P 500, so he's trying to prove them wrong

Stop calling it Myanmar. It's Burma. The Junta does not get to decide the name of the people.

Each Democrat who voted to censure Rep Al Green should hold an IN PERSON town hall this weekend to explain their vote to their constituents.

I have said this to so many people.

On Signal's website, it used to have testimonials.
One was from Edward Snowden:
"I use Signal every day."
That was enough for me.

And if you find safe houses and underground railroads...
They cease to be safe or underground when you put them in a spreadsheet.

Now that you've made those connections, you want to stop talking about it openly.
I'm super excited you want to fight!
But these systems already exist, and this is like you coming into Trigonometry and you just learned Division.
Listen to elders, don't talk to cops, figure out who you can trust.

If you want to do this, you cannot possibly organize it this way. Find people in your area who feel strongly, and you will get to many groups that exist already and have infrastructure, vetting.
Show up, meet people, talk to people, NEVER to cops.

If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations.

If you're 45, that number is 74.7%.

If you're under 30, the number is 100%.

The bipartisan censure of Rep. Al Green, a Black disabled man, is further proof that intersecting ableism and racism is the foundation of our political establishment, and it confirms what more and more people are realizing: these parties are two sides of the same coin.
