Ok. International day of people with disabilities.
-Accessibility requires action from those without the disability that needs to be accommodated.
-Disabled people deserve comprehensive, good healthcare
-Disabled people deserve a livable wage!
-Disabled people should be allowed to marry without-

Did some recent event inspire this wave of disability policing and hate or did I just happen to luck into this algorithmically?

Attacks on academic freedom refer to threats to freedom of faculty to conduct research, publish, speak, and teach, based on disciplinary expertise without outside political interference.

More importantly, this also includes students’ right to learn.

​The right-wing effort to infringe on students' right to learn is an effort to hobble higher education as a force for creating a more just society.

You know things are bad when a dozen former FDA commissioners, from as far as 1990, pen a word criticizing Vinay Prasad’s memo on Covid vaccines.

The decision to change vaccine policy was based on VAERS, an unreliable source of data.

Having a very depressed day. Is there a point to all my suffering? Kinda feeling like I should just give up on school. I've wasted 16 years to have it all collapse cuz of my mental health and fibromyalgia over and over. Do I just stop and try to get a remote job now? Is this worth it anymore

Another pair of edits, this time a red pansy. One in full color, the other with the foliage in grayscale. Which do you like better?

Two versions, which do you like better? The one with a dark fantasy look, or the one that's a bit retro?

In the right’s telling, the origins of "gender ideology" are varied: It is false consciousness, a leftist lie, a plot by globalist elites, a spiritual affront to the Lord—or all of these things combined.

The reality? It's hateful rhetoric designed to wipe out transness itself.

MAGA learned from global autocrats the language needed to push fear.

"Adan" is prunning grape vines in Kerman CA. "It is very hard work. I look up all day to see which vines to cut, so my neck aches from the strain. My hands hurt from using the heavy pruning shears all day long. But there are not many jobs during these winter months." #WeFeedYou

We’ve mistaken “service” for “subservience” and it’s so evident

Service is mutual and exchanged

They will not stop til they tell you that their whole goal is fascism and folks will still be okay with it
In 1938, a New York Times reporter warned:

“When and if fascism comes to America it will not be labeled ‘made in Germany’; it will not be marked with a swastika; it will not even be called fascism; it will be called, of course, ‘Americanism’.”

Dimon on why JPMorgan Chase is not funding WH Ballroom:
We have an issue, which is anything we do, since we do a lot of contracts with governments here and around the world, we have to be very careful how anything is perceived, and also how the next DOJ is going to deal with it.

The vibe shift today is, I think, due to the fact that New Yorkers were on the offensive instead of the defensive.

Usually with protests, demonstrators have to defend the space, defend their right to march, etc. They get beat up and pushed around and antagonized into chaos and trauma.
