🚨 I urgently need your help. I only need $40 to buy my chronic illness medication, and $100 more for essential medical tests (CBC, CD4, TSH, Cortisol, HbA1c, and kidney & liver function tests). Every delay puts my health at greater risk. If you can help or even share my campaign, you could make a life-saving difference. Thank you for standing with me. 💔🙏 https://chuffed.org/project/019db787-6a8d-7312-8d45-b6b60814e386 #MutualAid , #MedicalAid , #Disability , #Help , #Emergency

Please sign this petition!
Fedizens! Hello! In the process of *working on a petition to get a 🏳️‍⚧️ woman's death investigated *being denied GAC as MA DMH patient myself and * continuing to network with various law and legal groups I've come across a horrible truth: ⚠️MA Dept of Mental Health has no policies in place to ensure gender-diverse patients receive gender-affirming care!⚠️ This is shocking when considering that 👉🏼MA's Dept of Corrections already have policies and procedures in place👈🏿 to ensure inmates receive life-saving gender-affirming care! We have law and policy makers and legal advocacy groups expressing interest! However, let’s sign this petition to ensure the job gets done! You know what to do! https://action.allout.org/en/m/68f59987 Please *sign* (regardless of location), share and 🚀 BOOST🚀 🏳️‍⚧️✊🏾🏳️‍🌈 #transgender #enby #petition #activism #queer #lgbtqia #disability #HRT #genderaffirmingcarea

It's #DisabilityPrideMonth :disability_pride: Time for my annual PSA for #Video Creators: *Subtitles Are Vital* Also, plan on them going Over your video When you put important info at the bottom of the screen I have to pause, turn off subtitles, rewind, play it to see the info, pause, & turn subtitles back on- unless I miss it entirely because the subtitles hide it! #Inclusion #Disability #Subtitles #Deaf #HoH #HardOfHearing #Processing #Accessibility

I read aloud where it showed the payer is responsible for this. I had to tell them they were the payer.
3. Then bc I mentioned 'employee' in the part I was responsible for, was quick to deny again, with ignorance...
she said: cpp-d is not an employment benefit.
Me: yes it is.
She: it's a public benefit (more eager to deny than learn & help.)
Me: it's a public benefit that ONLY workers get. Many disabled people do not get it. (really it's a pension..I paid into, they don't know the basics.) 7/7

TLDR: If you got a lump sum cumulative payment from CPP-D Contact your MP (this is the only way, though you can try yourself to get this T1198 form filled out by Service Canada) & an accountant to ensure you get the taxes you paid back-distributed over those years & very likely a lot of $$ will be returned to you. They don't tell you this & are not informed & fed is stealing millions from disabled yearly. https://www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/services/forms-publications/forms/t1198.html #cpp #disabilityrights #disabled #canada #cdnpoli #disability

CPP-D is stealing many billions of dollars from disabled people through denial of services they are legally responsible for & through complete service incompetence or willful fraud are robbing the poorest & most tired. There needs to be an investigation but also a class action. Most #disabled don't even KNOW of the theft they experienced, because they are not informed of their rights... 1/7 #disabilityrights #CPP #Disability #Canada #HumanRights #CanPoli #SocialServices

#WritingWonders 05-27: What #Music Genre Best Fits #WIP? The series title says it all: Heavy Metal. (Okay, technically #80s hair/glam metal, because only those wild guitar solos on vinyl hit the right frequencies to charge the sonic batteries in the heroine's faulty bionic parts.) All the chapter titles are song titles, and the characters sometimes make lyrical references. Why the heck did I weave that stuff into a #SciFi novel? Partly homage: the story explores themes of #disability drawn from my own and my sister's experiences, and #rock music helps us both cope. But mostly just because it's fun. #Cyberpunk too often wallows in bleak, gritty nihilism. I wanted to twist the genre's characteristic 80s aesthetics in a quirkier direction. And so it came to pass that I started writing #books about a cyborg karaoke queen who solves murders.

“Well that’s only if they catch covid! WE don’t have covid!”

How do you know? We won’t know if you’re an asymptomatic spreader until an average of seven days goes by.

“You can just test for seven days following the party!”

So, you want me to miss a week of specialist appointments necessary to maintenance management of my illness?

“You don’t”

Yes. Yes I do. It’s not just me at risk. Who do you think is in the waiting rooms and treatment rooms and buildings I am in for those appointments?”

Being able to not think about #disabled people, being unaffected by all of this “inconvenience,” is a privilege. #disability #DisabilityJustice #SubTootingMyLife
