Try this as a thought exercise: a disproportionate number of ppl who are disabled become homeless. Evictions highly elevate suicide. Society could write laws which ban evictions or which ease suicide. Why would a society choose the latter over the former?
False. As a scholar of Rousseau Moo Deng was using the invocation of free will to delineate that when the people shall have nothing more to eat, they will eat the rich
This client supports her Kaiser Permanente therapist, who’s on strike: “I’m crashing the f*ck out, okay? But I’m waiting for you, I want you to get your bag.”
Israel assassinated farmer Yousef Abu Rabee and his two colleagues today as they were delivering seedlings to his neighbors in the North. He was a true hero, resisting genocide in impossible circumstances. Farewell, my friend. To God we belong and to Him we Return.
My husband has seen my intestines removed from my abdomen while they pulled our dying child out of my body.

I don’t think any of you understand. I started using Twitter more as a journal because I was annoyed with the ableism I experienced especially in college. That led to me being a disabled advocate.
I had pushback from people who I thought would support me. They told me that I post too much on social media. I was gonna embarrass my sorority or any other organizations I was apart of.
Some said I was doing too much or what I’m talking about isn’t serious.
At one point, I believed it and felt like giving up but I’m so happy I didn’t. I’m happy I kept being myself. I’m so happy I never changed the way I advocated. I’m happy I never been afraid to speak on topics that are considered “taboo”.
My voice has led me to so many opportunities and I’m so happy💕
