ICE is now using data shared from Medicaid like names, addresses, phone numbers, birth dates, and citizen/immigration status. People are already scared to physically go get health care. Now it's likely they'll be even more scared to be covered at all

A perfect creature

There are either ghosts or squirrels in my attic, and Im REALLY rooting for ghosts because they're cheaper to handle

Idk why it says these are NOW mass surveillance tools. Ring has been unethical as fuck to have forever because they give data to law enforcement. You have other options for cameras that dont fucking help cops, and if you see they're helping ICE and still dont switch, idk what to tell you

Hello lovelies, I thought as of tonight rent was covered before I went back over my math - I don't know what happened, but I'm still short $105 for rent. I'm embarrassed, but TYSM for helping keep a disabled queer trans artist housed! We're so close! 💕💸🏳️‍⚧️ paypal.me/rookkilljoy CshApp/Vnmo: foxrook

Nurse asked if I was pregnant. I said well I had a hysterectomy. She responded thats my girl lmaoooo what

I am not very organized as a human person, but one thing I will not do is stick the wrong toothbrush in the wrong dog's mouth

You know you're chronically ill when you tell someone you managed to get an in person appointment switched online and they respond "oh good, you wont try to force yourself to shower"💀

Some of the newest members of my family (the one is right in front of the hobbit door since they kind of blend in)

I truly apologize to every other cozy gamer out there because y'all have these beautiful, organized, themed farms while Im over here in chaos country making everyone look bad

first batch of mystery bird (and animal) pendants that have made it to their homes <3 THREE more is my goal 💛 washbearswares.bigcartel.com #birds #birdart #mammals #SciArt #art

I accidentally tried to romance the one romanceable nonbinary character in my game without knowing they were nonbinary. Of course I was like oh I like that one!

Any supposed "resistance" account posting protester's faces is always going to be suspicious to me because that is, at the very least, highly irresponsible. Everyone should know better by now

I need to feel better so this can be me

There are a lot of things you can do that you simply *shouldnt* post online for safety reasons. Wish I could get people to listen to me on that one, but instead they're posting videos with other people's full faces and putting them at risk too

I would love to go a single day without people equating the fucked up, evil, violent, fascist shit happening in our world with mental illness

That ICE mother fucker probably has a name and an address

This! And also imagine if people werent being selfish assholes and did the group project of masking in public. If you're not masking, you're the reason someone still trying to protect themselves got sick. Dick move tbh, do better Flu hospitalizations were SO LOW when we were all masking 2020-2021

I feel weird eavesdropping but Im in bed but dont have the tv on because David is currently in teacher mode talking about leftism and economic systems to whoever he's talking to. Im just over here like yes yes very interesting lecture, but its so funny to listen to

Some libraries even have things like COVID tests, sewing machines, all kinds of stuff you wouldn't think of but your local librarian would love to tell you about!

The tools you need to avoid this terrible flu season (and a whole lot of other terrible ongoing things!!) are at your fingertips and a lot of people want to help.

Saw someone talking about how if your friend lives with you and pays their share of the mortgage but the house is only in your name so they are not building equity, you're like a step beyond a shitty landlord. I was like yeah, I cannot imagine treating a friend that way. Beyond just being shitty,

Little mama had a rough one yesterday. She had a dental, but she had unexpected complications and repeatedly stopped breathing under anesthesia. If she ever goes under again, she will need a specialist they said. I freaked out and asked one million questions and was assured she is now okay

The new flu variant, the one that evades the vaccines pretty well, does NOT show up on home tests according to my doctor. He said even some ER tests it will not show up on because they have to have a specific test for it. Just a heads up. He thinks that's what we have 👍

Waiting on a book that promises to teach me more about the wild shit the CIA has done. So basically I'm staying within my preferred genre (horror)

Now is a great time to start wearing a mask in public spaces!

Did you know we can make these kinds of statements without all the sanism, and we can choose to only share statements that dont include that kind of nonsense or *at least* make a note about how harmful it is when we do share them if we somehow have no other options

Long shot, but have any of you ever used an etching tool and happen to have any tips? I was gifted one, and I'd love some tips and tricks for how to use it. Ive found exactly one semi helpful video lmao

This infection somehow getting worse today after I thought I was turning a corner has really reinforced my belief that if you don't mask in public, you're ableist. If you're "happy to mask around" me but don't regularly otherwise, you're an ableist in a rainbow sweater

Hey it's the like one or twice a year I remember this app exists so here's Theo being a snoogie woogie

Someone on Twitter who doesn't follow me said I come off as indistinguishable from MAGA because I criticize Biden era policies, and it's so strange because if they followed me they'd know I'm full of ample criticism for all politicians and constantly asking where the grim reaper is lmao

Given that a ton of people are about to be kicked off Medicaid and food assistance, I will be trying to do more mutual aid threads over here in the hopes that we can connect folks who need help with folks willing to help. Fuck this country man

In between the stairs you can see a tiny green frog. This is hilarious to me because I once lived somewhere a frog could slip between the cracks of some shitty concrete stairs and hop out, scaring the daylights out of me 😂

Watching videos of queer folks who have been around way longer than me talking about their fears and their fights and I can't keep it together. I wish I could be more involved in my communities than I am

Maybe it's because I spent my middle school years beating up Nazis, but I don't get anyone wanting to try to debate them. There's no debate. Just a fist to the face. Giving them air to breathe just lets them read off the big book of slurs like they're taking attendance. Ask me how I know. 😐

If I see someone out in public wearing MERCH for that fucking concentration camp, I cannot be held responsible for my actions because the FUCK

For Disability Pride Month the senate said why don't we kick a bunch of people off Medicaid and close rural hospitals, wonderful There are so many people who are disabled but NOT officially on disability bc it's SO hard to get who rely on Medicaid for their medical care who deserve better

It's Disability Pride Month, so why don't we try to meet some needs for folks! If you're disbaled, share your cfing/💸🔗/wishlist/website/art/twitch channel- literally whatever can make you feel more supported! If you're able, go through the thread and choose someone's day to brighten!🌞

If you want to oppose fascism but you stopped wearing an n95 in public, bad news: you’ve been facilitating fascism via ableism, one of its favorite tools. Good news: you can learn from this error! By resuming masking, you protect marginalized folks & resistance movements. Give/get mask mutual aid:

Every time I am forced to use my limited energy to go be asked invasive and weird questions, I become somehow more convinced that every single human person should just have a hefty stipend with no questions asked (and control on prices) until we abolish it all

There are so many financial literacy workshops for poor people, but they do not account for the fact that most people just legitimately need more money. It's not a spending issue or a budget issue. It's a lack of funds. Like this person said, try living on less than 900/mo

It is really wild to me how people get so angry about someone going to a con sick, but then they don't mask at the con. My dude YOU could have been the one who brought it there and got everyone sick because spread is often asymptomatic or presymptomatic. Like 30-60% of the time, you're contagious

My Crohn’s and my allergy to TNF-inhibitors are thought by my doctors to have both been triggered into action by a “mild” case of mono I had at 21. It felt like “just a cold” at the time. Now I’m fully disabled, & then every single condition I have has been made worse thanks to Covid & Long Covid.

Onset of MS after EBV (a very common viral illness) takes an average of 10 years We are already seeing COVID trigger autoimmune disease, ⬆️ risk of heart attack/stroke, and more Folks w a disease that has a viral component are warning you, and you're like nah I'm too good for that to happen to me

This kid on my TV just accidentally burned the host without even realizing it😂 They were asking about what young voters want, and they were like do you think they'd say, and he goes well most young people haven't been to a senior citizen home so I don't think they'd say that 💀

After learning how much DNA is stored in your teeth, I cannot BELIEVE parents are just willingly handing that to a fairy like its a joke If I'm supposed to keep my name secret from them, why is my DNA being handed over?!

I know we've all seen that humidity map and said oh shit, so this link is one of the easiest explanations of wet bulb temperature and WHY it matters At some point, the air gets too wet for your sweat to matter. That explanation makes sense to someone who already understands the concept of dry heat

Do NOT share the faces of protesters. Do not share photos of protesters where faces are not blurred out. We have to keep each other safe, and getting your comrade arrested is NOT it. It does not matter if they're not doing anything illegal in the photo.
