After years of decline, Trump’s cuts to HIV/AIDS funding, mirrored by the UK and others, mean that AIDS death and HIV infections are rising again.
#WorldAIDSDay
Aid cuts have shaken HIV/Aids care to its core – and will mean millions more infections ahead
Reports highlight devastating impact of slashed funding, especially in parts of Africa, that could lead to 3.3m new HIV infections by 2030

Alice was a mentor, a friend and one of the people who I credit with helping me find my voice.

She gave me the strength to embrace my disabilities and use my skills as a writer to help others.

My life is forever changed because of her.

I will have more to say once I’ve processed 💔

Important: The anti-vaxx movement is closely connected to white supremacy. They blame the spread of measles on immigrants, and they frequently target immigrant communities with anti-vaxx disinformation.

If we as a country cared about disability and therefore healthcare and access, they would not be building AI centers in Black neighborhoods.

you can't excise trans people from society because transness is an emergent property of free will. if you divide the world up into men and women and say men do this and women do that, some people are going to say that sucks, fuck you, i do what i want. it doesn't get more complicated than that

A reminder that losing SNAP will be particularly devastating to those whose disabilities require them to have special diets.

The disability tax is real.

Everything costs more when you’re sick, and special diets are no exception.

Boost & donate to mutual aid. People need help.

If you’re still wearing a mask… thank you.

Thank you for recognizing that disabled people aren’t expendable.

Thank you for showing solidarity with us.

Thank you for caring about your health & the health of those around you.

It’s a powerful act of community care & it’s never too late to start!

Rodney Taylor was days away from receiving new prosthetic legs when ICE grabbed him.

He’s been detained for more than 8 months.

They won’t allow him to get his new legs & put him in solitary confinement.

He needs the disability community’s help!

His petition just hit 3,000… keep it going!
Help Rodney Taylor, a Disabled Double Amputee Being Held by ICE
Rodney has been in the country more than 40 years. He's in solitary confinement in Georgia, being denied disability accommodations and having his medical needs ignored. He must be released.

Please give me an unironic list of things that have gotten better over the last ten years because I’m spiraling.

I’ll start: you can buy an enormous TV from Costco for like $100 bucks now.
