disability advocacy went wrong when it became about inspiration porn and "differently abled" and savants. its incredible that that guy with no legs did a triathlon but your sister with no legs will not and she doesnt need prosthetics or five hour training days to deserve respect and compassion and accommodations. its incredible that that autistic guy can look at a city from a helicopter for an hour and then draw the entire detailed skyline from memory when he lands but your autistic friend cannot and they dont need to have a special Autism Power to deserve respect and compassion and accommodations. activism framed around "we are just as CAPABLE" means that when people genuinely are less capable they are left behind. activism framed around "we are just as WORTHY" is fundamental to radical compassion.

Marq in the Bay @baymarq.bsky....15h He only backed away from "globalize the intifada" after tons of pushback. He has received big $$ from donors connected with CAIR, a major anti-lsrael group. You can imagine what kind of influence they'll have on funding after Mamdani is elected.

Caine is really so perfect in the original. And the rest of the cast is stellar, including so many wonderful British character actors. It was also delightful spotting Tony Beckley (Camp Freddie) as the villian Harrison Chase years later on Doctor Who.

This post makes me wonder what skeletons you're hiding in your closet, Brian Mann. Defending and promoting sexual predators with biased, completely slanted reporting suggests to me you might be standing up for one of your own.

With AltText. I know all these things from my childhood. More folks need to understand.
CLIFF'S EDGE 1 day ago 100% Truth! ky peterson @KyPeterson5 NOT EVERYBODY KNOWS ABOUT FOOD STAMPS & RAMEN NOODLES. AND SOME DON'T KNOW ABOUT WALKING TO THE LAUNDROMAT WITH BIG BAGS OF CLOTHES. BOILING WATER ON THE STOVE FOR BATHS. AND LIGHTING CANDLES IN THE HOUSE BECAUSE THE POWER WENT OFF & NOT BECAUSE IT WAS STORMING. SOME DON'T KNOW ABOUT HAND-ME-DOWNS. SECOND-HAND CLOTHES. OR SLEEPING ON THE COUCH OR THE FLOOR. SOME DON'T NOW ABOUT GETTING GROCERIES AT A FOOD PANTRY OR WAITING IN A LUNCH LINE FOR A MEAL, OR TURNING THE OVEN ON TO HEAT THE HOUSE. SOME DON'T KNOW ABOUT HAND WASHING CLOTHES IN THE TUB OR IN THE SINK AND DRYING THEM ON A CLOTHESLINE. SOME DON'T KNOW ABOUT SHOWERING AT SOMEONE ELSE'S
