Yet Another Site I Will Rarely If Ever Use

but yes, that is 245 people who applied at all from the US, and i can't find a number on who has been accepted, bc we won't really know for awhile since it takes 1 to 3 years to process those claims

i should also specify my friends began this process well over a year ago, are just now close to getting their work permits, and have been in various temporary housing situations across the province for a few months and it has been draining financially and emotionally, and just difficult to find housing for 2 ppl and 2 cats. so i rlly dont mean to like oversell the accessability or ease of doing it at all.

that way we know we’re from tumblr without revealing anything

I’m just going to say this to strangers until i find a tumblr person

must keep reblogering!! Im going to be so suspicious if any one tells me this now!

Remember the answer is: I stole them from the president.

And for those people who have access to mobility devices but might benefit from a second chair they can abuse without risking expensive damage…

Erik Kondo has made a website, Open Source Innovations, that details plans for DIY wheelchairs. These wheelchairs can be made from common materials like wood, plastic, and pvc. They are lightweight and can be custom fit to the user allowing from the same degree of movement you would get from a custom chair. And they are durable and easily repairable. (he has been stress testing his latest design by dropping it down stairs, dropping it out of a car, launching it across a driveway, and throwing it off a deck). Its 12lbs and I think he said its was in the $200 ish range for parts.

you can embrace the you you are now, because that's the version of you that got you through everything you've ever been through, and you can make steps towards whoever it is that you want to be now.

you can become the you that is somewhere at the place where "could have been" and "had to be" meet, and discover a new you that you never realized you could be.

you can mourn the you you couldn't be and still find a you that you can love. the journey there might even show you all kinds of new ways to be you, and you can take the parts of all those yous and build yourself up into whoever is waiting for you on the other side of that journey.

The main thing I observe is that a lot of employees recommend makeup that is chemically incompatible. For example, if you ask them to recommend you a foundation and concealer, a lot of times they’ll pick two products that are chemically immiscible, so they’ll NEVER blend together successfully.

That foreboding sense. Happened right at the end as we were DANCING. they pushed past us as we were leaving, batons and those non-lethal guns alr out. Whatever their story they were alr sending trucks up the backway on McAllister. Actually i dont remember even seeing any vehicles other than trans bikers cus thats our destination every time.

Multiple trans ppl arrested after being assaulted w/ no explanation. Whoever was left was pushed out of the Trans District or out of the march area.

I took the cargo ops class at school but my teacher explained that it doesn't give a certification and I'd only be okay for ship's crane and the school forklifts. she said I could take an online exam and get my cert. I paid 60 bucks.

I'm googling and I'm seeing a lot of resources saying that the online programs cover the classroom part of the exam but not the in person practical aspect.

like that isn't the problem there. these people were already enslaved. everything about how society and the economy and whatever was structured was premised on them not being human. The Problem is for what propose they were being counted as 3/5ths of a person. it was for apportioning representatives and taxes. the south had millions of people enslaved. 3/5ths of those millions were considered for how many representatives the states had in congress. the more slaves, the more political power. and this had repercussions that echo down through to today. and this is reflected today in prison populations being counted for political representation but incarcerated people being disenfranchised. and in gerrymandering and in gutting the voting rights act. in the continued denial of political power to black people.

literally like everything this country does is a badge of slavery. everything is reproducing slavery while trying to forget it.

oh and the other side of the compromises: the taxes. the south could continue to benefit from slavery and accumulated political power as long as it meant the north and the federal govt could accumulate wealth and capital in tandem.
