Wenn mir das nächste Mal alte Menschen beim Flaschensammeln begegnen oder eine alleinerziehende Person um ein paar Euro für eine Brezel fürs Kind bittet, sage ich einfach: Reißt euch zusammen, ihr lebt schließlich im Paradies.⬇️

Disabled people asked for remote work for years. Were told it wasn't possible. Covid proved it was always possible. The future was just being rationed.

#Money, the interesting thing about it is if you #exist in #poverty, you desperately need it for your day to day survival, then if your on the opposite end as in being a multi million or billionaire in reality money means nothing, because everything you own and do is leveraged off of debt that you one don't actually own and second can never actually satisfy, and the rules of the game are very different for those in poverty, and the rules are slightly different if your in the middle, but if your on top, the rules don't apply to you unless somehow your generation and hoarding of wealth imposes upon another top income holder, basically if your in poverty all the way to the bottom end of double digit millions, your beholden to the entire state if it where, and beyond that the entire state apparently is beholden to you and your ability to leverage debt, it is a rigged system of epic inequality and strongly embraces prejudice against the rest of us whom simply would appreciate the basics in life to be readily available without so much turmoil, and stress to our mental and physical wellbeing, money is an illusion of power and has left far to many of us going hungry, literally;

I drew this after my recent art workshop in partnership with ME Action! I felt so much connection and awe (also, exhaustion and brain fried ofc).

Thank you everyone who participated in the workshop or helped make it happen in any way. It was truly magic.

P.S. I have art in an art exhibition about art for therapy & health, and I think the exhibit is really incredibly curated. I can’t believe 21 views of long covid received an honorable mention amongst so many phenomenal artists’ & powerful pieces!

You can check out the virtual gallery here:

I'm back with mutual aid requests roundup article for the week after an unplanned hiatus last week for technical stuff. Amplifying each request is the bare minimum. Give direct support if it's within your capacity. Either way, be the person who dismantles the rotten capitalist conditioning that isolates you; "nobody is going to help/save you." Prove them wrong.

Unintended consequences - The age verification debate is backwards. It prioritizes theoretical risks to privileged kids over documented harms to those already marginalized. For disabled youth, LGBTQ+ teens, and kids in unstable homes, social media isn't a distraction—it's a lifeline. Banning access punishes the most vulnerable while doing nothing about algorithmic harms. Real policy would protect without erasing. #AgeVerification #DigitalEquity #DisabilityJustice #a11y #MarginalizedVoices

Not enough people understand narcissism.

Trump’s behavior is classic narcissistic, addict behavior. He’s actually very predictable.

It’s all about Trump.
It’s all about survival.
It’s all about getting to the next day.
No matter the costs.

Symptom: Social Security Disability Rejection

61% of Social Security applicants are denied after their first application. I am now on the second appeal, when 49% of remaining applicants are approved, and have hired a lawyer (disability lawyers are only paid if they win your case).

I set a new goal on ko-fi, in order to get more illmarks pieces into the world. The fundraising would cover framing two Med Art Advocacy pieces, and submission fees + professional scanning for the Mütter Medical Museum, a Senior Living Center, a Health Care Center & 3 other shows.

If you are able to comfortably, please buy me a ko-fi. We’re 1/3 of the way to the goal!

Everyday Acts of Care as Resistance in Our Communities

Wenn Menschen wie ich politisch Stellung beziehen, kommt sofort der immer gleiche alte ableistische Reflex: Wir seien "missbraucht", "vorgeschoben" oder "manipuliert". Dahinter steckt kein Zufall, es ist eine Strategie.⬇️

🧵 Ihr wollt unsere Geschichten – aber nicht unsere Sichtbarkeit? Ernsthaft?!

Ich bin so müde davon.
Wirklich.
Immer wieder kommen Journalist*innen mit der Bitte: „Erzähl uns deine Geschichte. Erzähl uns, wie es ist, mehrfach diskriminiert zu werden. Wir wollen deine Perspektive. Die ist so wichtig.“⬇️

Wow! We just cannot express how grateful we are to everybody at @lucyparsonscent for organizing #LiberationSoup. This was an incredibly well-organized pamphlet and event that not only got a bunch of amazing orgs in one room, but also allowed us to connect with so many great folks in our community to talk about the state of houselessness in Boston since Wu’s vicious attack on Atkinson St. It was also incredible to see past Warm Up volunteers leading new groups in this area! If you reached out to us, we have a whole bunch of messages and we will be getting back to you all as soon as possible. #WarmUpBoston #LiberationSoup #Cambridge #CommunityDefense #HarmReduction #Indigeneity #ClimateJustice #Abolition #TenetUnions #AntiWar #ImmigrationJustice #MutualAid #OrganizedLabor #BlackLiberation #QueerPower #TransPower #DisabilityJustice #Activism #BostonActivism

I’m new from Twitter and hoping to be able to connect to similar communities. Beyond #socialscience , #academia #climatechange and #ClimateJustice I’m hoping to connect with #disability #disabilitytwitter. I’m trying to thrive with #chronicillness and #disability. I’d like to connect with other #disabled #cev and #disabilityjustice profiles. I’m especially hopefully to follow those updating on #covid and #Evusheld
