New Years can be hard when you’re chronically ill
People are setting goals for the upcoming year… and many of us can’t participate
Our goal is to survive & lessen suffering
If all you did in 2025 was survive, that’s ok
It’s ok if that’s your goal for 2026 too
Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise

Here's a source on that statement from the AP about being refused entrance to an EO signing ceremony because the AP continues to use 'Gulf of Mexico.' This is a clear free speech violation.
(And I'd note that the AP was founded as an indie media cooperative, so maybe...support indie news.)

This administration does have a real "off with their heads" vibe about them
NEW: @apnews.com has now been barred from an event in the Oval Office because it "did not align its editorial standards with Trump's EO renaming the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America."
In other words, b/c @apnews.com ACCURATELY calls it the "Gulf of Mexico," it is now being punished by Trump.

I have been saying this all month. As someone within the disability community and working in social services for other disabled individuals it's glaringly obvious what's next. Fielding calls from families who "didn't think it'd apply to them" has been beyond frustrating this month.
I want you all to pay extra attention in the coming week.
They're coming for SSI and disability next. And it won't be so loud like the other hot button issues.
It will be a quiet pull, barely mentioned anywhere on the news, if any.
Listen to those on disability.
They're going to know first

I've noticed the same. Tack on being a cis latinx woman with a disability. It's abhorrent.
My husband took me to the ED. Tell me why these idiots turned on the bright af procedure light directly above my bed - WHILST THERE FOR A MIGRAINE WITH AURAS - acting as if I was being ✨dramatic✨

They’ve done studies that show men’s pain is treated faster AND more aggressively than their female counterparts.
We call this the “health gap”. Just having a man in the room with you can drastically alter your outcome.

I recently took my non-disabled cis male partner to the ER for a severe migraine. Eye-opening. The way he was treated was so different from my own experiences at the ER. They didn't once accuse him of being a drugseeker. They listened. They showed concern for his pain. His pain got treated.

Someone tell that sanctimonious pixie Speaker Mike Johnson that if he places conditions on California's ability to rebuild, his state, Louisiana, the Welfare Queen of Federalism, won't be able to fix any of its roads because that money comes from the far more successful economy of California.

“If it were really an emergency - you wouldn’t question going to the hospital”
Perhaps this is true for non disabled people … but once you’ve experienced years of chronic illness, neglect & medical trauma… you question everything.
Going to the hospital is NEVER an easy choice

I can definitely get behind this thought process. Like many others that I know in the disability, or chronic illness world, I do not ever want to go into the ED, especially via ambulance. I do whatever I can to avoid the ED or emergency techs simply because I do not present as most would. 1/?
“The reality is medical care looks different when you’re chronically ill. The system doesn’t function the same for healthy people as it does for us. Learning when to seek care (and what that care will look like) can be a traumatic experience”
This is why many of us don’t/won’t go to the ER:
This is why many of us don’t/won’t go to the ER:
"I Won't Go to the ER Unless I'm Literally Dying"
When you're disabled or chronically ill - learning when to seek medical care (and what that care will look like) is a painful and traumatic journey. It often ends in "I will never go to the ER again."

Another excellent argument for universal basic income.
Everyone deserves to have a roof over their head, food on the table and access to healthcare.
These are the most basic things people need to survive. Imagine what they could do if they didn’t have to worry about how to pay for them?

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1k/month. A year later, nearly half had housing.
They also had fewer ER visits, nights spent in a hospital, and jail stays.
The report estimates that this reduction in public service use SAVED the city $589k.

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1,000 a month. A year later, nearly half of participants said they had housing.
Participants in Denver's basic-income program reported having more-secure housing, though results were similar in the trial and control groups.
