Many of us were born with our disabilities, but being born without disabilities does not protect you against developing disabilities over your lifetime. Regardless of when you became disabled, you have a right to a happy and fulfilling life. ❤️

“Those with #chronicillness may need to cancel events last minute. This does not mean they are lazy or trying to avoid activities. Once fatigue kicks in, there is no option other than to rest… the body “hits a wall” and can’t go further, no matter what.” buff.ly/zp4j7pr
Republicans lied again. Their Medicaid cuts are so bad that hospitals are already closing. Trump should talk to just one of those patients in Nebraska and explain how they're "not gonna feel any of it."
Trump brazenly lies: "We're cutting $1.7 trillion in this bill and you're not gonna feel any of it. Your Medicaid is left alone. It's left the same."
I'd plan to call around since Moderna and Pfizer tend to be the most common. And if you're under 65 with no traditional medical problems, notice that "physical inactivity" is on the list of conditions that predispose one to bad Covid (and qualify you for the shot on-label .. not…

Trump bombing Iran was illegal and unjustified. I ran for Congress to make sure our leaders consider the true costs of war. And I will be in the Senate, standing on my titanium legs, demanding answers from Trump. My statement:
Most people have no idea how much we’ve already lost. Public lands aren’t surplus—they’re the last refuges for life pushed to the edge. Elk and beavers need more than a photo op. They need space, silence, and a future not paved over for profit.
Does the federal government really need all this land? I like beavers and elk, but how much space do they need?

Hi, ER Doc here. Everyone needs to know that taking too much Tylenol can cause liver failure and DEATH. I have seen too many people unintentionally overdose. Do NOT take more than 4 grams in one day. That’s only 8 extra strength pills! Please tell all your friends about this.

When you spend 45 million dollars to make soldiers to march on your birthday, and you're still so unhappy you can't even smile on your big day... you are broken inside and nothing can fix you.
when you push folks too hard, they have lactic acid build-up because they're now using anerobic energy production almost exclusively: nature.com/articles/s4159… God. I'm out of space (and time) again, so: 1) QED: PEM is biological. 2) to my haters, see you in hell. ✌️ /end

When many people state that the lockdowns caused the deepest depression they’ve ever experienced, just a reminder that many disabled people are in lockdown, five years later. Isolation is a form of torture. I want to live in a world where disabled people are wanted in society.

Stop DROWNING yourself in cologne/perfume. That shit is awful and it permeates the air. I was on my terrace when a huge wave of cologne filled the air. I had to go inside immediately. I’ll never understand the need for this shit.
