No amount of trying harder is going to help most disabled people. Many disabilities are permanent, no matter how hard you try. Pushing harder can actually make you worse and disable you further. We can’t just try harder. Sometimes it is what it is.

Okay… Imagine a journalist hung out with a suicidal nondisabled person for a week and documented their suicide without intervening. That would be considered shockingly unethical. But because the subject is disabled, it’s considered “moving.”

Katie Engelhart NYT Magazine The New York Times We didn't need any more advertisements for MAiD (which is what this is) during a UN recognized eugenics crisis, thanks.

Katie Engelhart NYT Magazine The New York Times Summary of this article: “It’s so moving and touching that disabled people are willing to die so we don’t have to feel burdened by them or guilty that we’re not willing to personally fight for their right to survive and have their basic needs met.”

Justine B Every patient in Canada who is similar to Paula is labeled as “difficult” because Canada refuses to provide medical services that are routinely available in other countries. We are 20-30yrs behind. It’s denial of care and it’s a policy decision

Sarah Colero Katie Engelhart doesn’t recognize this as common medical propaganda

Pretty terrible that a journalist watched someone die from MAID just to profit off it. Never bothered to share those funds. Yet Liberal politicians and media will call you far-right Conservatives if your criticize MAID.

Katie Engelhart NYT Magazine The New York Times This isn’t good reporting if it doesn’t include all angles, especially if you’re profiting off the death of a person!

Hey, so I left this place months ago, but haven't been able to get anything resembling the community experience on 🦋. Any tips on how to hack the non-algo there to get what this place used to be?

Masks are under serious threat at being banned widely due to politicization. This would be a public health disaster. If you’re only wearing a mask at protests, please consider wearing them elsewhere. The more people mask, the more we normalize masks and protect them against bans.

Are there any nasal c*vid vaccines in development that aren't live-attenuated? (in other words, that are safe for immunocompromised ppl?

Am I going to keep masking? Yes! If I could I’d go back in time & mask retroactively. I wish we lived in a time when all viruses were seen as the dangers they are, where research into post viral illnesses was properly funded & robust. I wish masks were as common as shoes.

it’s not a political message it’s a human empathy plea from the population that has been culled over the past 5 years

I wonder why…

How long does it take for your eyes to adjust to new glasses? I've got a new pair that I'm worried the rx might be wrong on...through my eye with more impaired vision, things look crisply clear, through the other, slightly less so (if I close one eye and only look thru the other)

Bad, bad look to drag a Black woman disabled by #LongCovid for saying that she's going to keep masking to protect herself and her community. Disabled people -- especially people w LC -- know society actively wants us gone, so masking is a radical statement. #YallMasking #MaskUp
