@siege my god. That would bring the discourse on match ratings to a height and ferocity never seen before. It would become the top rope razor’s edge of pro wrestling discourse. 😂

@weirdwriter @bemyeyes Haha. Why do I feel exactly zero surprise, and of course they're spinning the violation of consent as a win for blind ppl. And of course a bunch of ppl will defend this practice because Be My Eyes said it's to better help us.

Number of days since somebody makes a general suggestion that ppl run to Canada to escape US fascism without knowing that the vast majority of nation states don't accept disabled people as immigrants and that Canada will quite literally offer disabled people assistance in dying before offering them assistance in living: 0

Neither USAID workers nor ppl working in a presidential admin are likely to be leftists of any kind and even they are now saying Biden is directly complicit in genocide. This is the most obvious, high-profile example of the liberal-fascist bargain playing out over nearly 8 fucking months now. I do not know what more anyone needs to see to acknowledge that.

Not that I think corporate or even governmental DEI is a solution to the problems re -isms in society but it's notable to me as a disabled person that biden last election ran on improving SSI--including both raising the asset cap and benefits amounts--and what happened instead is that neither of those things came to pass and instead the federal government's DEI office got dissolved for something called the office of talent management that could not sound more neoliberal if they tried.

@siege Fucking hell. I reported this person like twice on .cloud in late 2022 when I first joined fedi. Doesn't say anything good for modding on the big instances that they're still around doing the same shit.

@mutualaid Tinu is still raising the funds for her mortgage payments and other expenses. She’s about $1200 short of what she needs, and that’s before new costs come due on 2/29. She has been having to choose between paying for cancer meds and other expenses for too long now. Please help with a donation if you can. Boosts welcome and appreciated as well.

@mutualaid The organizers of this fundraiser for a Black disabled person in the Global South have raised enough to secure their friend safer housing. They now need help raising funds so their friend can secure employment. Their latest sub-goal is $950 to be raised by Feb 15. They’re at $305/$950. Please give anything you can. Boosts welcomed and appreciated as well.

Disabled people have been saying “normalize disability” for a long time now but we did not mean that the state should let a level 3 pathogen rip through the entire population and then tell everybody that severe brain fog, heart palpitations, lung damage, and chronic fatigue are all normal so make sure you just keep buying shit and going to work.

Hello. Ellie, a mutual of mine, needs help paying for her mother’s ongoing lung treatments. She has been at 66/800 of her current goal for about three days now. If you’re able to help with a gift, please do. Send as payment for goods and services as there are PayPal limitations in Latin America where she lives. Boosts appreciated.
