Als we PAIS (Post Acuut Infectieus Syndroom) serieus hadden genomen hadden we nu niet zo'n groot probleem. Als PAIS als een reële mogelijkheid werd gezien na een infectie, hadden we de pandemie anders aangepakt en waren er minder chronisch zieken.

We hebben recht op zorg. Daar is onderzoek voor nodig, dus daar moeten we in investeren. Niet over een tijdje, NU. Nu gaan er mensen dood, nu hebben we hulp nodig!

I see a lot of people saying now is the time to get out of the U.S. if you can. Please remember most disabled people can’t leave. It’s incredibly difficult to immigrate to another country when you have documented medical issues. Many are also too sick to endure a move. We must fight for them.

When you hear “Make America Healthy Again” please remember who the Nazi’s targeted first. They wanted to make Germany healthy and “pure” The Aktion T4 program mass murdered people with disabilities. They tested the gas chambers on us. Please do not obey in advance. Speak out. Save lives.

Voor alle mensen die een verbod op vochtige doekjes propageren: je hebt nog nooit hoeven katheteriseren zeker? Nee. Dacht ik al. Een verbod is validistisch en maakt voor bepaalde mensen het leven heel veel lastiger. Gooi die dingen gewoon niet weg in de wc, maar in de prullenbak. Helpt.

Recently learnt that WhatsApp can transcribe voice messages now! If you go to settings -> chats You can turn on "transcribe voice message" and then if someone sends a voice message you can hold that message and select "transcribe" and it will transcribe it for you. It doesn't work 100% but still.

23 weken(!) wachten op hulp bij een eetstoornis, 20 voor depressie, 24 voor trauma… Maar de eerste reactie van de staatssecretaris is dat hij “kritischer gaat kijken of mensen daadwerkelijk in de GGZ geholpen moeten worden.” 😳

When I first got sick a lot of people abandoned me, as expected. A while back I regained some function again and I could do things. But (almost) nobody in my circle said "that's amazing! Do you want to hang out now that you're able?" So the level of sickness didn't matter after all. People just suck

If this stops being shocking. If this stops being horrifying. If this stops making us furious. If this just passes by with a shrug. Then we have just accepted antisemitism as a normal. The man is literally selling a T-shirt with a swastika in it. Outrage is the correct response.

Ik keek net nachtdieren en daar waren mensen die gif van een kikker als drugs gebruiken. En je moest er van overgeven en je voelde je belabberd. Ableds zijn zo grappig. Expres jezelf ziek maken omdat dat 'transformative' kan zijn. Ik weet dat het uit PEM komen goed voelt, maar het opzoeken...

Imagine having to do research without using the term "barrier". That word is used so often! Great Barrier Reef. Barrier between two roads. Barrier in bodies (membrane, tissues, ...). Or "systemic" apparently. It's completely ridiculous.

1. If Trump runs out of immigrants to persecute, I suspect the next target for his performative sadism will be people with disabilities. Already, without a shred of evidence, he has blamed the air crash on disabled air traffic controllers, with horrible, stereotyping slurs about their disabilities.🧵

There have been a few occasions lately where I've had dinner with other people and they commented that the food was very spicy and I didn't taste any spice at all? I used to be very sensitive to spice and now I barely notice it anymore? It's so weird!
