do people realise that being disabled in a community of other disabled people that you will know someone who was killed or assaulted or abused for being disabled? hell even if you aren't disabled and you just exist in society. my friend's cousin was a little person and got attacked in the street for no fucking reason and died. if you talk to people with disabled family members you'll hear the same sort of stories over and over again. and people are getting way too comfortable these days dismissing ableism as just some sort of rhetoric. like "yeah it's bad optics to say it but-" and go on to say autistic people are really annoying or mobility aids take up too much space or scars really scare them so they should be covered or some other shit like. get a grip. it's not revolutionary or "saying what we're all thinking" by being ableist. that's actually the norm.

there's something about how people talk about ableism online that feels somewhat divorced from the reality that ableism is a form of violent oppression that gets disabled people killed, assaulted, and brutalised in real life. that it causes medical neglect, abuse, and structural inequality. that disabled people are, on the whole disenfranchised. and it's not like verbal interpersonal ableism "doesn't matter" in the face of the "real stuff" because all forms of ableism contribute towards dehumanising and isolating disabled people, which in turn makes them more vulnerable to the violence i mentioned. but it's like, do you guys remember the violence exists? that it's not just people being upset over words "for no reason"? there's a glaring reason right in front of us if you bother to look

Y’all don’t ignore people enough. That’s why you stressed out.

Heated rivalry shouldve been about 2 ugly old guys that play mahjong then maybe id consider watching it

Every day there are martyrs here in Gaza. Every day there are shells, bombs, gunfire, and injuries. Every day one or two people die from Israeli bombs. The war hasn't ended; the war continues, but slowly. We are dying slowly.

With the ongoing siege and the prevention of medicine, food, and potable water from entering, we are suffering greatly. My father has cancer and is suffering terribly from the disease. He needs surgeries and medication. Please help us and donate.

In addition to cancer, my father has recently been diagnosed with hardening of the main arteries of his heart and needs angioplasty and stenting surgery. However, there are no surgeries available here in Gaza. My father could die at any moment. Please donate and help us. Please donate.

Please donate what you can! Nader and his family need our help more than ever

Please help us and donate now. Don't hesitate to donate. Our lives are in danger. Just a few hours ago, three people were killed, and several others were injured. The siege continues, and our lives are extremely difficult. Please donate.
