Stop talking about immigration like undocumented migrants are just too lazy and flippant to fill out a simple, straightforward form. As an immigrant to the UK, I spent ~£8,000 on various application fees, legal fees for an appeal after my application was denied, and other related costs.

Just thought I'd share these stats from upcoming lecture:
With $1 billion, it would take 548 years spending $5,000 (~£3,830) a day to run out of money--that’s > mean monthly wage in the UK (£3,185) every day.
Musk alone could give $40 to every person globally.. & still have $1 billion.

In the US, it's very challenging to compare #NutritionFacts because label units aren't standardised. Take these cracker labels. Info is per 30g, 154g, 28g, 16g, & 14g. Which has the fewest calories per gram? Highest protein?

Gee, it's almost like disability and other social protection programs *aren't* the thing that's wasting taxpayer money 🤔🙄 maybe we should stop deifying industrialists while resenting marginalised people for simply trying to survive... Just a thought.

Every once in awhile, after an extended period of diligent self-care, I feel relatively ok & think 'maybe the docs who treated me like a hypochondriac before my diagnosis were right.' Then I disrupt my routine for even one day & my body forcefully screams 'Nope, you have a disability, fool.'
