This is my most confrontational post of the day: please watch Armond’s video & think on it.
It isn’t at all progressive or leftist to spread disabling disease in an ongoing pandemic. There are more Armonds than you know, & folks who don’t mask are making more each day bc most spread is asymptomatic

ER nurse: Well you don't seem to be in that much pain.
Me: Because the last time I was here I did seem to be in that much pain and got told to calm down and that you all couldn't help me if I didn't stop complaining about the pain constantly. If you prefer I scream, I can.
Nurse: ...........

Exactly this. I often feel like I’m in storage. #NEISVoid
There’s a special kind of grief that chronically ill and disabled folks know of watching huge parts of life pass by while your body, try as it might, simply hurts too much or is too exhausted or dysregulated to do a single thing except try to stay alive from one moment to the next.

Intending to write another column about the treatment of #ME/CFS patients this week, pegged to new research findings on the biological basis. My question for sufferers:
Are any of you still being offered inappropriate (psych/GET etc) "treatments"?
Please email george at monbiot dot info. Thanks.

What would happen if we stopped praising people for pushing through and started praising people for taking care of themselves and being mindful of their limits?

#NEISVoid let's remind people how... pragmatic we can be 😈
So, fun facts: It's much easier to stop someone in ways that risk permanent damage than to subdue them without, & the human body is pretty easy to break if you know how. Disabled folks with martial arts backgrounds are not rare. And we tend to go for the quick, brutal win because we're so fragile.
Don't piss off a disabled person in a power chair. We tend to know enough anatomy to do serious damage, hypothetically speaking.

George will be coming on my show this weekend to discuss this very important article.
Here's today's column on the astonishing, ongoing mistreatment of people with #ME/CFS. Please spread it far and wide: the only thing which can break the media's wall of indifference is seeing an article about the issue go viral. Thank you. 1/2

In 2026 I want all of the decent people to remember one thing.
You aren’t meant to be this disciplined, this self-sacrificing to survive. The environment is supposed to support good living. We can have that. You are not a failure. That is politics.
That is all.

Between SSDI reconfirmation, SNAP/Medicaid recertification, and this hosing packet, I am drowning in paperwork.
I think many people don't realize just how many administrative tasks disabled people are expected to perform despite their illnesses, their pain, fatigue, nausea, brain fog.
