5 tiny shelf projects finished, supplies sorted/put in their bins (hardware, projects, supplies). Moar green lights. Some organization of bills and stuff, oven mitt hung on wall, new shelf by bed (head of the bed side-shelves is a nightmare)

All stuff put in their homes, it's all clean, life'ing

Çocuk (ruh) sağlığını da, beslenmesini de korkuyla güdülenen kâr kapısına çeviren; çocuk korumayı yasakla çözen; halkın şiddet/iktidarın suç geliri sorununu "suça itilen çocuk yoktur;öldürün,bunlar doğuştan kötü"ye indirgeyen ülke ekosisteminin ürettiği ve kolladığı şiddete bak.

Disabled people tried to warn you.

We said that the rising eugenicist sentiment that accelerated during the “back to normal” phase of Covid would eventually hurt everyone

The new healthcare plan for America appears to be:

Don’t get sick

If you do get sick, it’s your fault

If you can’t pay, die

In an ableist and stigmatizing world, people force us to legitimize and prove our needs,biological and pschological limitations,strenghts and capabilities
that we have desires and dreams, but also that we are in pain etc
Eventually one realizes there is no limit for their demands.
Unmasking is hard
being autistic has ruined a lot for me i have a legitimate disability and keep pretending i don’t i try so hard to fit in and understand and have correct opinions like everyone but it’s like i’m broken and always saying the wrong things when i actually try for myself

This is exactly why disability activists keep speaking about about medically assisted death.

The “safeguards” have come off.

Coercion is baked into the system, and in some cases, family members are making the request.

A patient’s life ended without them asking for it.
Dementia patient gets MAID after family member brought forward the request
The MAID provider deemed the woman had given final consent, based on her ability to repeat a question and squeeze the provider's hand.

Sayın danışman, bu konunun esas muhattabı otistik yaşlılar, yetişkinler,gençler,ebeveynler mi? İlaç kullanması gereken kadınlar mı?

I refuse to be told by a guy who has suggested all neurodivergent Individuals should be institutionalised, and another whose brain was eaten by a worm, that my being autistic is the problem, or a crisis. Autistic individuals aren't the problem, the way we are treated and minimised damn sure is.

If you try to force your autistic child to take a quack cure so they stop being autistic, then don't be surprised when they spend the rest of their life relating to you as a person who only loves them conditionally.

Autism doesn’t stop at 18. There are plenty of autistic adults that often get left behind during media coverage because the focus is often on moms of autistic children. It’s another way to erase autistic people’s personhood.
I feel like news publications should put more energy into asking autistic people how they feel about all this because…

A disabled double amputee named Rodney Taylor has been held in ICE custody since January.

He’s been denied his new prosthetic legs and is now in solitary confinement.

His “crime”? A burglary when he was a teen for which he received a full pardon. 🧵

"These racist, misogynistic men do not have the right to tell us that we are ‘less than’... to tell us our lives are untenable when most of us feel differently... to act as though being born with a disability is a fate worse than death. It’s not."

“Where have we heard that before? Nazi Germany. They went after disabled people..called them ‘useless eaters’..tested the gas chambers on them. Discarded them because they weren’t economically active, they weren’t strong and fit, and they didn’t want them to reproduce and contaminate the gene pool.”
“He put the blame on the women. He insinuated that if they ‘really’ cared about the health of their unborn child, they would be willing to endure any amount of fever, pain and suffering rather than take a safe and effective drug.

That’s why I say this is eugenics.”
