There can be no social justice without disability justice.
Involve the disabled in resistance efforts.
Listen to us.
Recognize that this is a class struggle and the disabled can teach you how to fight the fascists.

Completely untenable to have someone who talks about a minority group like this in charge of anything, let alone being the final say in matters of equality and human rights

Call me crazy, but perhaps being related to a Senator who died doesn’t qualify you to be a Senator.

Alex Massie conjured up a figure of aroudn 450 trans women convicted rapists over the space of a decade in a piece he did for the Times and got away with it despite that number being larger than the total number of trans women in the British prison system altogether (most of them not for rape).
The major story of the last decade is the resurgence of overt racist hatred and fascism, on a specific platform of removing the civil rights of citizens, and deporting them where possible. The British press has - at best - used this opportunity to hammer the fuck out of everyone it’s always despised

This idiotic tweet reminds me of when a friend and I visited Oakland Cemetery in Atlanta. Founded in 1850, it reveals a fascinating history. We noticed how many gravestones were for infants. And for many young sibling dying in the same week. We realized that it was before vaccines and antibiotics.

I worked for New York’s largest medical center at the start of the pandemic. There were morgue trucks on the streets. They set up emergency medical tents in Central Park. Healthcare worker colleagues died. It is horrific that RFK Jr is on national TV lying that ICUs were empty.

The lead author has an *immense* undisclosed COI to deny aerosol mitigations are effective, due to his role in the "very big mistake" that wasted "an enormous number of lives".

More testosterone won’t make a better soldier or a tougher man – aggression and strength drive T levels, not the other way around
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is requiring service members to screen for low testosterone levels. Ironically, the military lifestyle itself is more likely to lower T levels.
