I’m gonna simply say this: if you are at all interested in a Stargate show with ANY of the original creators/performers involved, now is the time to say something. Otherwise it really will be the end of that chapter forever. Let them know you are THERE

We carry the pain from yesterday, we aren't our pain. When you get sick of carrying it, you can put it down. You are worthy of the space you occupy, and you are a valued member of the human race. Connection and Love is a need, don't hide yourself away. We're all in this together.

PSA to disability organizations:

When you contact a deaf person for a call of sorts, yes, you need to have an ASL interpreter or a captioner in your plans.

Ableism is wild because it is quite literally the accelerator for almost all oppression.

Racism: look up the logic behind “bodies made for labor.

Sexism: see “hysteria”

Homophobia: the same architects of conversion therapy designed autism therapies.

Fatphobia: “why are you

I think there are some people in my audience who could use a quick history lesson. I believe it will help clarify some important things.

Likely most of what you know about "The Irish Potato Famine" is propaganda meant to conceal an intentional genocide.

Voice artists don't want to automate their jobs. We love what we do for a living, that's why we do it... not because it is easy, because we love it. Stop advertising trying to get us to train AI. Stop trying to steal our voices. #voiceactor #voiceover #ai #artist #human

This is the best example I've found yet of how derivative AI 'art' is. The person who generated the image on the left asked Midjourney to generate 'an average woman of Afghanistan'. It produced an almost carbon copy of the 1984 photo of Sharbat Gula, taken by Steve McCurry. 1/

Lecturing oppressed people about non-violence but doing nothing about the violence of their oppression tells me this isn't an objection to violence for you.

For disabled people, inaccessibility is:
Not an inconvenience.
Not an accident.
Not just an obstacle.
Not just a barrier.

It is exclusion, isolation, segregation, devaluation and trauma.

I was at a conference this weekend and was with my crutches and this little girl (toddler) kept looking at them and so I explained, but she still looked confused.

Her mom came up to me later and said “I told her your crutches are like Sun Spider and she got it!” 🥺

There is no good (i.e., acceptable to medical professionals) way of communicating how severe your pain is.

"I'm in severe pain." - means nothing

"I can't do my basic ADLs b/c of pain" -means nothing

"I'm suicidal because of my pain" - get sent to psych ward w/o relief

*sees metformin is trending and checks*
*sees why*

Y'all I have diabetes, my parents have diabetes, we need this medication in order to have a CHANCE of maintaining our health, and seeing why it's trending (a possible help for long COVID) fills me with such anxiety.

My landlord threatened to evict me over an outstanding balance. I talked to them and they apparently made a mistake and didn't take out enough money from my bank account. This is the second time they've done this, this year. Where they make a mistake and decide to threaten me.

them. I’m a second-class citizen to them, at best. Community visitors told me to contact you, support workers tried to call, but waiting for someone to get to an email isn’t going to help me. I just want to live.

@gedkearney I live in your electorate, and I desperately need your help. My name is Percy, I’m a Deafblind wheelchair user, currently contending with the @NDIS to try and gain my independence. They have been blocking it at every turn, kept me homeless for four years and

words. They’d rather I die than do their damn job. We’ve told them about everything that happens where I live, the constant injury, the violence I’ve faced, the fact I can’t do anything I love anymore. But they don’t care. Complaints haven’t changed anything. I don’t matter to
