I wasn't medically vulnerable (or so I thought) until I got COVID. You don't really know that you're not either, even if you've had COVID before. I think that woman who knowingly went to ALA with COVID deserves scorn, but what about the people who didn't care enough (5/7)

than they are, and it's clear from the photos I saw from ALA that most people didn't. If you didn't test and you didn't mask, how do you know that you weren't also spreading COVID or some other illness? I got the COVID infection that led to my disabling autoimmune disease (3/7)

organization that isn't making conferences accessible to folks like me (with online components or stringent safety protocols). But people at conferences still have the choice to test and wear masks for their protection and for the sake of people more medically vulnerable (2/7)

I hope people will save a bit of their righteous indignation for ALA and other organizations that no longer require masks or testing at their conferences. They have abandoned people with disabilities utterly. Personally, I've decided not to give my time or money to any (1/7)

Project 2025 includes the call to “outlaw” porn. If you want to understand what they mean by that? Look to what these groups are already fighting “porn,” and their connections to anti-gender movements outside the US. I start that analysis here:

This might be a good time to remind y'all that a lot of “anti-trafficking” NGOs started out as (or also operate) "crisis pregnancy centers". And they share the same total disregard for women, human rights, and facts.

So just jot that down for the next time some dope asks you why LGB and T are grouped together when the first three describe sexuality and the last one doesn’t. Yes, being trans isn’t a sexuality, but to object to “LGBT+” on that basis completely missed the point.

Like, the notion that men should only have sex with women and women should only have sex with men, which is foundational to homophobia: that’s gender.

Idk how even pro-trans people sometimes miss this and see the LGBT+ alliance as good but also, idk, some kind of leftover from a time when “gay” and “trans” weren’t as markedly distinguished as they are today. No. It’s because we all find ourselves confronted with (cis, hetero) gender ideology.

What this article leaves out is that if you hand your unlocked phone to a police officer, they can legally search it. Unless companies develop a method that allows you to show officers insurance cards and driver license without unlocking the rest of your phone, don't.

If you steal $1000, you can be sent to prison. When health insurance companies steal $50,000,000,000, they get tax breaks, subsidies and government contracts, while the people they steal from die or go into debt. But keep blaming immigrants and poor people for rising crime.
