humble tweet: i am chronically ill. i mostly post about politics of disability. this is far easier than getting vulnerable about my personal experience. while i'm staying committed to the former, here i am with the latter, and a request for help 💛

Every editor who canceled a story about Palestine brought us here. Every boss who censored an employee. Everyone who said “not this way” to protesters. Every university admin calling the cops. Bloody. All your hands are bloody, and we will never forget.

@Imani_Barbarin @janicesghost You separate from your partner of 5 years, citing existential crisis. No exaggerations here. I am the partner.

biden's eugenicist covid policies, like how he has spent the last four years downplaying it and hiding/obscuring the data on it, are responsible for millions of people dying or becoming disabled.

@AzsureHedges Almost every expression of affection or excitement comes with a threat. And he seems to back her into a corner, conversationally. And makes a lot of assumptions / speaks for her. High key controlling flags.

[Lydia Dana @LydiaDana]

@AzsureHedges Absolutely. Found this after doing a search for his name here specifically to see if people are talking about this. I’ve felt this way virtually the entire time about him. It scares me.

My friend is dead because healthcare workers refused to wear masks while treating her.

We have less than 3 days to stop Texas from executing #RobertRoberson for a crime that never occurred. Though his office is closed today, you can contact @GovAbbott at 361-264-9653 or https://t.co/iENIlLMipD by leaving a voicemail, emailing and/or tweeting at him.

[Dr. Sean Mullen @drseanmullen]

“Do you want me to put on a mask?”

Me: No. I want you to be a competent medical service provider, stay up to date on science and understand you should already be wearing a respirator, and not humoring me as though it’s something that isn’t normally worthy of your effort or vigilance.

PS - No I’m not compromised
but your intelligence may be.

[Lydia Dana @LydiaDana]

@smartthrob You have no idea what you’re talking about and I will be unfollowing you on TikTok and IG. Spend a single day organizing around local issues and you’ll be mortified to have posted this.

Show me a government more committed to racist state violence than the “United States of America.” (Other than its partner in international crime, Israel.)

BREAKING: The @USSupremeCourt has denied a stay of execution and declined to grant review to Marcellus Williams, allowing his execution to go forward at 6 p.m. CT today. https://t.co/Nv50v0LUp8

[Lydia Dana @LydiaDana]

WHERE 🤨 is @POTUS (who ran on an anti-capital punishment platform) with a statement? with pressure? Might not have power to make the decision, but the crickets wreck of racism. Upholding the government as a legitimate arbiter of violence. No surprise.

[Innocence Project @innocence]

"I got hope a miracle happens," said Marcellus' Williams son, ahead of his father's impending execution today at 6 p.m. CST. "This is wrong. I believe my father is truly innocent." https://t.co/4fGIZJC02h

#Zionists be Zionist-ing. Which is to say: killing innocent people. Killing not out of “necessity” (as if it could be) but out of desire. Out of racism. Out of unchecked power and impunity. @GovParsonMO, this is how you’ll be remembered.

Zionist in charge of Missouri

[Lydia Dana @LydiaDana]

@AntoniaMarrero @innocence @POTUS @VP @KamalaHQ They could *definitely* make a statement. The crickets from them are wreaking of racism and upholding the state as a legitimate arbiter of violence.

[Martin Luther King III @OfficialMLK3]

Marcellus Williams' execution would be a travesty and a miscarriage of justice. His questionable conviction--including DNA evidence pointing to his innocence--makes a clear case that Gov. Parson must halt this execution. The state cannot--must not--take an innocent life.

[Innocence Project @innocence]

We wish we had better news. But as of now, #MarcellusWilliams is still scheduled to be executed by Missouri tonight at 6 p.m. central for a crime he is totally innocent of. ⁠

Don’t stop sharing his story. It’s not too late to save an innocent life.⁠ https://t.co/eofSDX66tC

uninterested in the label of terrorism tbh! the term will never work for us! what israel does is colonial and imperial violence, sanctioned by the west and international refusal to act

[Lydia Dana @LydiaDana]

@heyloveliv Right?! We even saw him sucking at the beginning for m u l t i p l e episodes. What’s with the amnesia everyone had?? *lookin at you, Rachel* 😬
