im expecting a lot of “pride month is over, now it’s time for wrath month” posts. that’s cool and all. but july is disability pride month.
pride month is when you’re SUPPOSED to be angry. it’s a celebration AND a riot. that was the best time to get angry. second best time is now. but it’s not wrath month. let disabled people have this.
please get angry with us. please fight with us! we are both losing our rights, if we ever even had them to begin with. please don’t talk over us, especially during our own pride month.
did you know over 10,000 people die a year while waiting to be told whether or not they can receive disability benefits?
did you know while being provided disability benefits, disabled people cannot have more than $2,000 total in their bank account? the average rent for an apartment in the united states, as of last month, is $1,995. per month.
while they want to kill queer people, they want to kill disabled people just as bad. please look out for your disabled friends and family. please look out for those of us who don’t have friends and family. those of us who are out on the streets.
The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not ‘get over’ the loss of a loved one; you’ll learn to live with it. You will heal and you will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same.
I don’t know who you are, but your addition to my post is amazing. Thank you kind soul.
hey netizens! i’m not sure how many people are aware, but youtube’s been slowly rolling out a new anti-adblock policy that can’t be bypassed with the usual software like uBlock Origin and Pi-Hole out of the gate
BUT, if you’re a uBlock Origin user (or use an adblocker with a similar cosmetics modifier), you can add these commands in the uBlock dashboard (under My Filters) to get rid of it!
I’d like to direct anyone who is learning, or might want to learn a language to Refold. It is a free resource that has been an invaluable tool for me that covers how to learn languages and gives you a nice roadmap to follow. The more popular languages even have a roadmap tailored to them.
