i need to go to the ER, but have no car, and uber/lyft are not reliable in this part of the country.
but even if i could get there, i can’t go alone because of the high likelihood i will be mistreated in retaliation.
the thing is, i have been attempting to organize other disabled ppl to do this for another for years but we can’t have nice things like that because of wreckers in the form of competitive individualists and those whose hopelessness motivates them to take all hope away from the rest of us
neoliberal fascism’s extermination phase is slow and boring, responsibility is so finely diffused that no one has to face the consequences of their complicity - it is simultaneously nobody’s fault and everyone’s.

VA eliminated 40,581 positions in 2025.
Severe shortages jumped 50%.
All 139 facilities affected.Lost:
→ 3,002 nurses (79% facilities report nurse shortages)
→ 1,068 doctors (94% report physician shortages)
→ 1,905 claims examinersReal impacts: 208-day mental health waits, radiology delays, patients redirected 60+ miles.
VA says "no impact on care."
The data shows otherwise.https://hadit.com/va-workforce-cuts-2025-staffing-shortages/

CW: New Veteran Healthcare Legislation Introduced in Congress
A new bill introduced in Congress (HR 214) would allow veterans with service-connected disabilities and their dependents access to the Tricare health insurance/network - the same used by active duty military & retirees. This would give vets a real choice when it comes to their healthcare. Currently, vets use the VA and dependents have nothing.
