huge victory against this euth*nasia Bill which all 350 Disabled People's Organisations in UK asked for input were strongly against! it'll be back again again soon enough (this is the NINTH attempt at legalisation in the last decade!) but big win for today regardless www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cq...

MPs vote against fresh move to legalise assisted dying in England and Wales - follow live

The bill would have allowed adults with fewer than six months to live to apply to be given help to end their own life, subject to certain safeguards.

anyone who's not on The Other App, there's currently yet another round of "left" eugenicist discourse, this time stemming from a predictably disingenuous post from *The Manhattan Institute* which misquotes a straightforwardly anti-eugenics 101 position from the Health Communism author. and ofc it's

some more quotes from here, this time on the subjectivising process of dis/ableism which helps to construct and maintain the othered status of the surplus class

a reminder that social m*rder is not committed with equal intensity across all societal strata but rather preferentially applied by the State to the groups it deems undesirable—something often imbricated with 'vulnerability' (read: vulnerabilisation)

example 1: the ongoing p*ndemic and the overlap between sickness and disablement caused by State abandonment of public health and its planned shift to policies of euth*nasia instead

"that vulnerability is itself socially produced and thus capitalist policies which kill vulnerabilised people function just as if they were expressly created to target them, regardless of the stated intention." Prometheus putting out banger after banger!

here myself and @dashflint.bsky.social try to highlight the very real enactment of social m*rder + e*genics happening right now with 3 concrete e.g. in the UK: welfare cuts, c*vid, and (just in time for the very next attempt being voted on next Fri) the assisted su*cide / e*thanasia bill

here's an example of the current method (left) vs a method with ~30cm buffer applied to the ~centre of mass (right); the buffered line has much less jitter / is more predictable and seems to even be what Khalilzadeh is trying to align himself with

this shows the worst of VAR offsides w/o any kind of tolerance: the back leg of the defender can move much more quickly than the body mass of the attacker. here attacker is trying to stay level but in literally 0.1s the offside line moves up by >0.5m and he's caught out

Iran was offsides by this much. Would've sent them to the Round of 32. (And then they hit the crossbar a few minutes later)

Last night, I got properly "doored" for the first time. A car in the road to my right paused, and the rear left passenger threw open his door without looking, right into my path. I ended up on the floor, badly winded but ok. If you don't know what the "Dutch reach" is, NOW is the time to learn.

this is what capitalism's necropolitical "market" favours: we ofc could keep more patients alive and give (predominantly women) workers a better quality of life if nurses and carers were paid more money—and that's precisely why they aren't

Now these people should get the six figure bonuses

disease is a tool of oppression, and i need everyone who supports palestinian rights but long abandoned caring about covid to consider how they intersect. caring for your community at home also cares for communities abroad. educate yourselves on airborne pathogen prevention.

passports are imperial documents designed to regulate the flow of people from postcolonies to metroples. they are not neautral travel documents. & it's not like colonizers applied for visas when they went & colonized vast swathes of the globe.

maternal deaths related to childbirth are up by 20%. but while acknowledging the leading cause of maternal death is blood clots, there is zero mention that the leading cause of blood clots in 2025 is SARS-2 infection

“since the start of the cease-fire”

we have to eliminate all notions of the 'good intentions' of western powers, first and foremost the United States. adding this caveat only allows for obfuscation to take place, as though any project of 'democracy' or 'freedom' wasn't always already one of genocide, new forms of servitude, conquest

reminder Labour did not oppose the OSA in any meaningful way and in fact some claimed the Bill did not go far enough

Just to say, any Tory up in arms about the possibility of Starmer banning X, these are the powers put in place *by you* in your Online Safety Act. This is Boris Johnson, Nadine Dorries etc. This is yours.

SARS was known to be airborne since 2003 + most ppl who still wear a respirator had to figure it out themselves in 2020/21. ask yourself why the WHO + national authorities like the NHS chose not to protect workers + purposefully spread a disease which kills and disables patients
