A little late, but I participated in #HourlyComicDay this year and reflected on my recent health struggles & the how I've coped with the gradual loss of my abilities. So I'm deciding to share them here. 🧵

Disabled 2S Dakota artist, haven't been able to get medical help for pain + lost my cane so I can't work, and I gotta fill an rx this week. It would help a lot to sell some beadwork or if anyone could help out w a few dollars. Pls boost!

As someone with an illness that includes debilitating pain as an actual symptom, I have some insight into how doctors think about pain and how to communicate it with them effectively.

I'm watching friends deal with this and hate it, so maybe I can help? I'll try at least.

I hope it goes well, good luck! 💕

@semispeaking if there's anything I can do for you, let me know! I went to court as a witness for a friend's name change and I'd happily do that again (or anything else to support you <3)

Found this stunning poem by torrin a. greathouse (@tagreathouse) on @The_Rumpus (Love the linebreaks!)

NEW: A man named by the cmty as Amir Locke was killed by MPD serving a warrant on Feb 2. Police say they killed him b/c he was armed. His family says he wasn't named on warrant, that he had a permit to carry & was startled by the pre-dawn police intrusion.

today I heard the news that 1 of my childhood friends were murdered by the Minneapolis police department. Amir Locke was not a named suspect on the search warrant. He also was a licensed gun owner & had a conceal and carry permit. Lastly he didn’t even live in the apartment..

Since we live in gun toting America, if you come in my house with a key fob (presumably I did not give to you) and I own a gun, it is not justified for you to shoot me for holding that gun, shoot me in less than 9 seconds.

What’s happening at United Noodles? The tweet we quote tweeted explains everything. From black mold in the building to child labor laws being violated. United Noodles needs to be held accountable for the ways they are treating their workers and their customers.
