I deleted the Target apps off my devices and haven't set foot in one in weeks. I used to be in there twice a week. Any company who obeys in advance like that, had no integrity on which to stand. They folded on Pride merch and they folded on diversity, equity, and inclusion. Get out the game, fold already! Get out my neighborhood, too.

"don't trust anyone who sees "#healing" as being #synonymous with becoming functionally #abled, #mentally or #physically. its vital that #people who will never function normally– who will never leave their parents house, who will always need a #caretaker, who will never be able to #work to #capitalist desires– are considered and told their #futures are #valuable."

the #NDIS was designed by #Rich, #Abled bureaucrats, and it functions exactly as expected. You can't even get an answer as to whether something *could* be funded if you were to apply. Everyone you speak to recites the same line “it's a collaborative process and the assessors will go through your plan...” as if the whole application process is zero-cost, zero-time and zero-effort.

The irony of me wearing my Queensland Ballet “Every step a story” shirt was not lost on me.
Enjoyed scaring off the young #abled at the elevator. They decided to enjoy the use of their body and take the ramp.
Tired, sore and cranky. Too much sensory overload for this #ActuallyAutistic

#Augmented, S49:E4 of #Nova, on #PBS validates what I've been noting (and warning of) about what could become an evolution of humans from #biological, to #mechanical / #digital beings.
What downsides will there be to all of the positive effects of these radical improvements?
"Is it coercive to attach goods to the abilities of the body?"—which we do now so, yes—and to whom and how will people be indebted for their #augmentations?

@Alonealastalovedalongthe @AnarchoNinaWrites
Yeah, I'm familiar.
OTOH, the fictional characters were specifically English boys attending a private school at a certain time in the past. Lord of the Flies might actually be an accurate depiction for that specific demographic (#Brexit?) in that time period (#Nostalgia?), though this is outside my area of expertise.
Tying this all together with the rest of everything.
Much of what we are taught as students in the US and probably other so-called Western or First World countries is based on the experiences of #abled, #white, #male, well-to-do English-speakers. Their world is not our world, and much of their conjecture based on their world is wrong for the rest of humanity.
So, Lord of the Flies may or may not narrowly apply to English private school boys back in the day, and definitely does not broadly apply to all of the humans.
This is one of the reasons DALL-E can't create an accurate picture of a blind person with a guide dog approaching a food truck in a parking lot. These accurate depictions do exist on the Internet.
I'm attaching the four pictures I got from the above prompt with my low-vision best description of what is wrong. As I'm not a #dog person, I can't speak to breeds, though the dog in the last image has some weird ginormous tail.
I don't know how to put a warning only on the images: These pictures are AI-generated and are not accurate depictions of guide-dog-users. Not for resale or reuse.

@FreakyFwoof I think that this #ableist #eMail bs should be #illegal and does not satisfy the notification requirements.
Also even for #abled people this is just bad, since a lot of them - like myself - will be sometimes if permanently on #WWAN like #2G, #3G or #4G and thus not download attachments at all, but only the text.
And yes, I do also automatically mark all #HTML - #eMails as #Spam so they won't even show up in my #Inbox.
