if i seem tired and angry it's because i am. 6 years of this shit, plus the trump administration blatantly attacking healthcare and disabled people, and STILL most people can't be bothered to do the easiest thing to stand by us. you have no idea how tired and angry i am

"but wearing a mask when no one else does is embarrassing" it will fade. you should be a hell of a lot more embarrassed of letting social pressure outweigh protecting disabled lives.

"but i can't afford masks" there are hundreds of mask types with hundreds of different pricings. if you literally cannot spare the money, there are mask blocs and other organizations providing free masks to low income folks. your city probably has at least one

"but i'm vain and don't want to cover up my face" literally get over it. i did. there are more important things than strangers thinking you're cute

"masks are uncomfortable" know what's more uncomfortable? knowing most people don't care if disabled people live or are able to access things like grocery stores and public transit.

"masks make it hard to breathe" there are hundreds of mask types with different levels of breathability, find one that works for you
