Ok folks, [pulls up chair] It's time to stop making fun of trump for wearing a diaper. It's ableist. Extremely ableist. There's many good people who suffer from conditions that causes them to need a diaper and they don't want to be made fun of for that

Idk about this #OscarHealth joke is, but they enrolled me without my permission. Said I had to cancel it through Healthcare dot gov but they don't know anything about it. Somehow I suspect Trump and his butt-kissing MAGAts are behind this.

#Oscar signed me up for 2027 without asking - two weeks before I can get into Healthcare dot gov to see what's available, and they don't even bother to tell me. Just an email saying I've chosen paperless billing. Didn't even mention it was health insurance. I had to figure that out on my own.

Them: “Why are there suddenly so many more disabled people nowadays?” There aren’t. Disabled people have been here all along. However, disabled people are more visible, vocal, and way less ashamed of the way we are. And people are noticing this, with either openness or with ableism.

And some these videos push idea ALL disabled people can do all of these things and if they're not, they're lazy. That's the core issue here. It's not an accurate window into the lives of 90% of disabled people's daily lives. We already get victim blamed enough, please don't make it worse.

Oh, Paxton's spine, oh Paxton's spine, wherefore art thou, Paxton's spine? Well, I suppose if #KenPaxton really did have a spine, it would make it that much harder for him to bend over and kiss Trump's rear end.

Talarico: I've heard credible reports that Ken Paxton has a serious medical condition that causes clinical levels of cowardice. People are concerned. He has asked for proof of life from me. I'm asking for proof of spine from him.

Tell me you voted for Trump without telling me you voted for Trump. 5 pm news anchor: refuses to say "Isaias", refers only to the "storm in the gulf".

More men have to be taught NOT to rape than women do about protecting themselves from rape. EVERY SINGLE BOY SHOULD GROW UP UNDERSTANDING THAT THEY HAVE NO RIGHT TO GIRLS' AND WOMENS' BODIES.

I hope that with all these political ads and PACs and such, someone remembers to target those who think they have to vote Republican because they've always voted Republican.

If it were up to me, I'd make the #Cornell7 watch all 27 seasons of Law & Order: SVU and write an essay on each and every episode.

Sad, isn't it? All summer we've had above average temperatures and no rain at all, and I was fine. Then it rains, and within 3 days, I'm so congested, I can't sleep at night. I mean, really, do we need all this pollen? 🤧🤧

My attitude exactly when I woke up this morning. I really could use some good news, or at least some rain. It hurts to watch the plants dying because I can't keep them watered.

You know, if you *really* cared about the wellbeing of women in college, instead of carping about the statistically insignificant number of trans athletes in sports minding their own business, you’d be railing against these Cornell fraternity cretins who drugged and gang-raped a passed-out women:

Gee, I wonder if this means they'll be too busy to send out the mail-in ballots. #voteByMail #Texas #cheaters

Good news: people in Texas are registering to vote. 🗳 🤠 Bad news: the Republicans are not processing them. An "unidentified problem" created a massive backlog in tens of thousands of registrations. In one county, 45,000 registrations have been backlogged. Hopeful. But suspicious. ☹️

I reached my deductible a couple weeks ago, and you know what happened? Nothing. Always before when I hit the deductible, at least some of the prices would come down, either RX or doc's visit copays. But I'm paying just as much as I was before. :( #Healthcare #Insurance #Joke #NotLaughing

It may be time to play Doctor Roulette again. My hip hurts. Which doc do I see? PCP? Rheumy? Hematologist? Orthopedist? Pain management? Witch? Is it due to #ChronicIllness or just age? Somebody hand me an 8-ball. Maybe I can get an answer.

#SocialSecurityAdministration has decided, 26 years after the fact, that we must repay them for #SSI payments my daughter got when she was born 3 months early. Gee, I wonder what prompted them to suddenly decide we owe them money. Could it be... satan? Or was that just Trump?
