How the hell does the US healthcare system expect someone on disability to have the finances for $1200 in prescription medications for one month, then expect them to be able to purchase three pairs of shoes to modify with a lift, and then finally be able to pay their rent, utilities, CCs, and eat?

It's a shame that Ki Mobility's Color Visualizer doesn't show other configuration options. I'd really like to see what it'd look like with Spinergy wheels, Frog Legs casters (anodized), backs/seating cushions, and other side guards.
Especially if I have to pay for the bling because, well, Medicare.

First day of occupational therapy was sort of rough. Not so much the therapy aspect (upper body is kinda my jam, considering the legs are kinda bunk...) but the 4+ hour commute round-trip in a sardine can of a commuter train - in the middle of the train car and not in a 👨🦽 spot.
Angry core is angry.

21 years ago I had a grand mal seizure after not having them since age 6. I fell on my face, my nose struck a doorstop. Doctors said my nose wasn't broken.
In September, my ENT confirmed that I had been lied in the years since.
Audiology sinus pressure test in May sometime. Surgery TBD.

Boy, folks who claim something isn't covered sure don't like being told that it actually was covered, especially when you provide the links...

Ultra right-wingers getting mad because MSM didn't cover Nick Shirley's story of allegations about that Somali daycare in Minnesota.
I thought they didn't trust and didn't watch MSM? Why get mad if the right wing constantly says MSM spins lies?
There's laughable, then there's hilarious... 🤣

Aged bigots who can't hold a civil discussion because my viewpoint angers them to the point of using the diatribe of "fucking ape" crack me up.
I didn't bother to respond, but boy, I wanted to retort with "Simmer down Gramps, eat a Snickers, change your Depends, and take a nap. Cry elsewhere."

I've been seriously considering entering the hospitality industry and tracking local openings for quite some time.
Is there anyone I can talk with in the industry that works in ADA Compliance? I've put out cold emails and have been looking on LinkedIn to no avail so far.
Thanks in advance!

Watching the right cringe, implode, and melt down over the initial voting results tonight has been absolutely wünderbar.

Don't let the lack of activity fool you.
Sometimes we have so much going on privately, that we completely lack the ability to squelch out the noise, and have absolutely zero motivation to reach out and inform people that we are, indeed, still breathing.

A solitary cow grazing near the Point Sur Lighthouse; Point Sur State Historic Park, taken nine years ago on a crappy tablet while in the backseat of an SUV. Sunset along Highway 1 with Gusty 40-50 mphw winds meant I wasn't going to step outside...

Any music production Discords out there that don't require loads of critiquing others' works before having your own work analyzed?
As a nobody bedroom producer with a disability and hearing issues, I'm still (re)training my ears and have no place telling people what sounds off in their mix...

For the time being, my SoundCloud and SKIO Music are pretty desolate. Mostly because my skillet and reach are nowhere near paying the bills. (SocSec barely allows for survival in situ...)
There will be more to come! Peep it!

Almost time to schedule the fitting appointment for my new wheels.
Would love it if my customization options were covered by insurance, alas...
Will try to get color on the next one!

Musicians – fledgling, aspiring, established, able-bodied or disabled – how do you deal with lack of feedback during the production phase?
Like, I'm pretty sure my friends are just saying my remixes are good, just to assuage the ego. But I'm looking for "This is the eff-up. This is how you fix it."
