Hi disabled community! I’m so sorry the megathread is late this week. I hope everyone’s new year is going well so far!
As always, we ask that in order to participate in the weekly megathread, one self-identifies as some form of disabled, which is broadly defined in the community sidebar:
“Disability” is an umbrella term which encompasses physical disabilities, emotional/psychiatric disabilities, neurodivergence, intellectual/developmental disabilities, sensory disabilities, invisible disabilities, and more. You do not have to have an official diagnosis to consider yourself disabled.
Mask up, love one another, and stay alive for one more week.
I spent 16 years working, mostly as a carer for the elderly but also had some other jobs on the side like telesales, waitressing and even spent 18 months working in a gym. I paid in all that time when when I need to draw out, I’m left to literally beg strangers for help.
people in the imperial core have such a “fuck you, got mine” mentality, it’s sickening
