I submitted my comments to LegPublicComment@nassaucountyny.gov on why Nassau County, NY should NOT pass their proposed anti-mask law to fine or arrest people wearing masks — the meeting is TODAY, get your comments in! #EDS #MECFS #MEspine #NEISvoid #LongCovid #DisabilityBluesky
ACTION: For those in Nassau County who want to push back against the mask ban, you can speak in person on Mon, July 15 at the Theodore Roosevelt Executive & Legislative Building in Mineola.
You can also email written testimony before then to LegPublicComment@nassaucountyny.gov

This is really worrying. There's a bill in Nassau County, Long Island, New York, that has a good chance of passing due to GOP majority, that would fine people $1,000 for wearing a mask.

Another huge draw of Twitter has been DisabilityTwitter. Do we have an equivalent over here? #DisabilityBluesky? People who are still #COVID cautious, still wear masks, are watching H5N1 and knowing that the gov't is going to fail us on that so it's all up to us? Mutual aid people? Hello??

The Biden administration is moving to phase out a Depression-era program that allows some employers to pay disabled workers far less than minimum wage.

Question for my #pwME #LongCovid #MECFS do you use an electric wheelchair/powerchair? If yes, which one do you have? Do you like it?
I have a self propelled chair atm, and I can propel myself for a bit, but mostly my husband pushes me.

Being disabled is incredibly expensive. My cochlear implant cost almost $250K, including the care leading up to surgery, surgery itself, the implant and processors, and my audiology appointments. I’m lucky because I have health insurance. #DisabilityBlueSky

I'm a homeless disability advocate based in Denver. I'm angry and I'm not going to stop because there's too many of us living on the streets because the government refuses to build enough subsidized housing or provide housing choice vouchers. They're leaving us to die #disabilitybluesky

Hey #DisabilityBluesky: people are impersonating disabled people (some with medical fundraisers) on Twitter and Bluesky
Try to claim your Twitter handle for Bluesky if you can to deter bad actors
Consider keeping your Twitter profile, otherwise there’s no way to file impersonation reports

And the proof that insurance companies know their "experts" are unqualified: one of the most effective tactics your doctor can use to override a denial of benefits is to request, in writing, the name and board specialty of the denying physician and proof of their qualifications.

Sometimes, right when I’m about to get into some water, I realize I can still hear the water which means I’ve once again almost forgotten to remove my incredibly expensive hearing aid and cochlear implant. They are not waterproof. #DisabilityBlueSky

So I was paid today...and all my money instantly disappeared instantly to pay off my overdraft...Please, I can't keep living like this.
If anyone can donate, or wants a commission, please, anything helps. I'm desperate.
