have an anti-capitalist love-letter: the problem ain't that we can't succeed or are losers the problem is that nobody is ever willing to listen to failures, who did ALL the same stuff the successful people did only to fail ANYWAY endemic survivorship bias in our society -- that's the REAL problem

Disability isn’t a vacation. It isn’t fun. It isn’t easy. It isn’t something people do for the “perks”. It’s a 24/7 job. It’s managing doctors, wrangling medications & fighting with insurance. It’s coping with ableism & abandonment. It’s doing all of that while in legislated poverty.

if I really have to say it out loud, (I shouldn't) 👉🏽it sends an AWFUL message when we spend more time trying to get bigots back on our side than the minorities they're bigoted against 😔 your value towards progressive causes does NOT hinge upon how well you can change the mind of a bigot
