Disabled people are not expendable We aren’t “less than” We aren’t “getting a free ride” Being chronically ill is not like being on vacation Receiving benefits or any type of support is not easy The system is designed to dehumanize, discourage & punish

Being able to work is a privilege. Needing to work isn't a privilege. People who can't work due to disability or sickness are not privileged.

@Imani_Barbarin Oh my goodness I was just about to ask for lit suggestions on this topic, my sibling is currently researching this and looking for work that can help build on the things they've come to realize hurts all of us because of ableism - if you have any more suggestions the-

The Passover story is one of liberation. It should inspire us to fight for liberation for all. The promised land will never require be built on violent ethno nationalism. When we say “next year in Jerusalem” I hope we are praying for peace

I don’t want to go into it again here, the full explanation with links to the threads of multiple of Ci’s victims is on my 🦋 account. You can also contact me for direct links (but I get so much spam DMs here I may not see it, so discord, bsky, and email are better bets) 3/3

I am one of multiple community leaders of marginalized communities who he convinced he was a good hearted and giving person. I legitimately thought he was one of my best streamer friends. I now don’t believe my friend ever existed. 2/3

I just realized I never shared here. But Ciaran/ChaiCiLatte has proven to be a manipulative abuser who boundary pushes his partners to the point of SA, and then paints said partners as abusive and ruins their reputations. He is not safe to have in your communities. 1/3

Disability is the only minority group you can join at any time. No one asks for it or expects it, it just happens It’s not a moral failing. You didn’t deserve it. Most people will experience disability at some point in their lives So why do we treat disabled people so badly? 🧵

“What are disabled people high risk for severe COVID supposed to do if they ban the vaccine?” Die. We are supposed to get sick and die. Don’t you get it yet? The mask bans, expansion of state power to force institutionalization, expansion of MAID, etc etc are so that we DIE

Figuring out how to properly pace yourself as a chronically ill person is like the world’s hardest game of sudoku. I’m sure there is a right answer somewhere in there but I don’t have enough information to figure it out.

A lot of white disabled people that say they're supportive of marginalized people. Mean only the white disabled ones. Cause why don't you acknowledge Black History Month. Why do you block Black disabled people that speak up on the racism they face in the disability community.

Hey all! I decided to raise money for @MaskBlocLA! Many of which are disabled and immunocompromised. They are helping people have access to masks! Which is so important! All profits from the sale of my Cat Mask Up pins and stickers will be donated. Links below! Please share!

A doctor posted earlier that she saved a life because she believed her patient. She described him as “strong”, a father, a firefighter. Someone who wouldn’t complain for no reason. How can HCWs not realize this bias insinuates others DO complain for no reason? 🧵

Try replacing a no politics rule with a no bigotry rule. Too many of us have been told not to talk about our identities in no politics streams. Because marginalized lives are politicized. You want to avoid arguments and debates, but make it a place we feel welcome? 1/5

"Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words"... - Cause people to be attacked. - Cause people to lose fundamental rights. - Cause people to be discriminated against. - Cause lifelong trauma. - Cause people to die.

I've been able to get to the point where Sery_Bot can be in your Twitch channel full time. No more joining/leaving when you stream. Now it's always there when you need him. Seems like a small change at the surface, but finally can say it's done. Storytime in the thread 🧵

Everyone needs people in their lives that will call them in if they're doing something harmful to themselves or others. We need people that can have hard conversations with us. Not just people that will defend us regardless of what we do or say.

One thing I've learned over the years is that the people you surround yourself with can say a lot about you. I've noticed abusers tend to surround themselves with enablers and people that will be "loyal" to them regardless of what they do. That's not healthy and inhibits growth.
