@ighaworth Not just tech. This trend is even hitting small companies in the Midwest. I've seen it first hand also. I watched two separate companies savagely exploit so many immigrants. I try to help them but they are so afraid of retaliation they accept the conditions to stay
@missj75@k170man@WallStreetApes Women are disabled and killed at much higher rates per incident in crashes involving vehicles because their anatomy is different than "small men" they previously used. Is it really a party difference to try and improve that??
@mushycrouton Living on the hope that this next strategy will solve everything. Is it a planner!? Great! An app!? Cool! A new work out routine?! That's just what I need. One day, we'll be right. We believe it every time
@Tori_TLCR Because the road to that "level of success" is paved with jobs that have people forced to kiss the ground they walk upon. Office politics in their early career makes them think we actually like them
@Nicole_Lee_Sch I fully support the idea that MAID has massive and disgusting faults, especially in the ableist society we live in. But why isn't the goal to reform it? Both extremes can be bad. There are cases where someone may want it unprovoked by a Dr's advice or any of that manipulation
@elle_carnitine They said torture. They said for years it was living in a coffin before they got to die. I don't think we should force that life on people when they beg for death. Like I said tho, a Dr should never recommend it. That should be malpractice it goes against the hippocratic oath
@elle_carnitine As someone who watched several relatives die slow & painful deaths over years & decades, the only time I wished that for them was when they were pleading for Dr. Kevorkian. It shouldn't be so easy, & it shouldn't be offered. Ever. But there is a place. It wasn't kind for them
@elle_carnitine If they had been able bodied they could have ended their own lives as they got to their desperation (if they wanted), but their bodies were failing them & they were trapped in a dying body living in "torture". It removed a choice. It's a separate extreme, but both exist
@madisontayt_ Thank you. I watched 2 and am slowly watching 1 more family member die slow, painful, infantilizing deaths where they all begged for death. For years even decades for 1. Marie's Ataxia is cruel, and watching them makes it hard to accept the idea of banning such help
@bethanypeabody @hoolie_r You know it's interesting, based on your take, both sides could be *trying* to help. One side is saying for your health just wear a mask and the other side is insulting the otherside with no advice to "cure" them of their fear.
@WrongsToWrite People are gonna study it in about 10 years or so for it's great benefits. It's been found to help reduce Long Covid Symptoms, too. The negative association to smoking is hard to navigate tho for now for many
