disabled people aren't fucking disposable despite every single thing our society has blasted at your brains.

We’re back at needing to make a payment towards shelter.

Why? The goal didn’t get reached 2x in a row. Still have a balance.

In an effort to not be thrown out on our asses, I was able to beg for some sort of a payment arrangement.

Needs, obligations, and shelter are all still compounding.

Inundated by overlapping needs.
Time is an unforgiving mistress & causes a surge in the amount needed.
Have to raise ~$970 now to not be in the red with Life. Thx for considering.

Seafoam green text reads:

Shelter goal's fallen through a few times now, but I still have to deal with the time-sensitive stuff that's also hit roadblocks over and over. I don't know what to do about shelter, but I need to handle those things despite that-there are real consequences if I don't. Pls spare + share and if you can't spare: share.
Thy for help and amplifying. -Britt

Elli allowed me to wipe something away from his eye with my finger today. Think that means he trusts me even more now. He wasnt a fan but let me.

All of this to avoid giving drugs to the “wrong” people.

This is just going to reinforce bias over and over, meaning white men will be adjudged worthy and the rest of us will have to hear all about the “objective” machine.

Facial expressions common to all humans! 🙃

PainChek is one of these behavioral models, and it acts like a camera‑based thermometer, but for pain: A care worker opens the app and holds a phone 30 centimeters from a person’s face. For three seconds, a neural network looks for nine particular microscopic movements—upper‑lip raise, brow pinch, cheek tension, and so on—that research has linked most strongly to pain. Then the screen flashes a score of 0 to 42. “There’s a catalogue of ‘action‑unit codes’—facial expressions common to all humans. Nine of those are associated with pain,” explains Kreshnik Hoti, a senior research scientist with PainChek and a co-inventor of the device. This system is built directly on the foundation of FACS. After the scan, the app walks the user through a yes‑or‑no checklist of other signs, like groaning, “guarding,” and sleep disruption, and stores the result on a cloud dashboard that can show trends.

Elli is a hungry little dude today. He's recently been eating half a shell worth of food but today he's going for more. Has more energy too.

Honestly don't think I can put it any better - this is a matter of SURVIVAL, which has been overlooked/ignored too many times in a row. Britt needs significant support TODAY to stay safe - alive!

Please send/match 10, 20, 50, 100

Any donation helps, big or small, it really helps. If you and your friends can match donations, we could really make some progress quickly, it really is a matter of living inside (life) vs being a multiply disabled, multiply marginalized person on the street with their cat..(death)

Sometimes I feel like i need to be bundled up in layers. Its 77°F in my house rn so it's not cold at all. I think it helps my pain.

Posture of a shrimp bc it makes my ribs hurt less. Unfortunately, its hurting my back.

Aiwendil ⓥ @chronicallyfab.bsky.social · 21h

Gotten used to the knees, hips, shoulders and wrist hurting but the ribs always throw me off since its not every day. And mostly hurts when breathing. Maybe i should just hold my breathe 😂
