Stop using disabled people as inspiration porn!

When he realized the train station elevator was broken, this dad did what he needed to do. He hoisted his son, who is paralyzed and uses a wheelchair, up a long flight of steps 💪

@annavshelton @courtneycjo @oldenoughtosay @CCriadoPerez That one needs to be retracted too. I think that group of “scientists” needs to be retracted actually.

@courtneycjo @oldenoughtosay Oh it gets worse: same men did a study that ‘found’ women with endometriosis find sex more painful than women without endo & titled it ‘I can’t get no satisfaction’ 🤯🙄 pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22910685/ I really hope @CCriadoPerez can use this in a book. The retraction is a non-apology!

@kfgibson @luckytran Thank you! Do you know of any accurate tracking in Canada?

#ScreamsAtTrees 🌲🤬🌲🤯🌲@kfgibson·13 May

@AccessibilityW2 @luckytran The data points are listed just below the ‘select data’ in yellow. They are: Covid-19 Phased Prevention (Auto-populates ‘community transmission’) Select: National or State Select: Time (drop down select current month)

With the end of the public health emergency, the CDC removed their COVID transmission and community levels maps, and found a way to make their main COVID map even more green: #cases_new-admissions-rate-county" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tra…

@kfgibson @luckytran I ran it just now and I can only see cases and deaths per 100,000 and everything looks pretty low. That can’t be right. How did you run yours to see all those red areas?

@luckytran Not sure where this data is pulled from but it’s still working. Not sure it’s accurate given I believe the mutations have made the current tests invalid - not developed for current variants. ephtracking.cdc.gov/DataExplorer/

@BruceTracy13 @1goodtern Sorry to hear that. N95? Everywhere? As in no eating or drinking while out of the house?

@1goodtern Despite being fully vaccinated and masking everywhere, I got covid 2 weeks ago. I've had a massive headache every day since. It sucks!

So my surgeon says “COVID isn’t a thing in hospitals anymore”. My nephew just had emergency surgery at a HOSPITAL and got COVID. Coughing with stitches may be the least of his worries. I’m cancelling my surgery. Second time since scheduled. #PCNL #CovidIsntOver #surgery

@LadyLegalWriter I used to tell them it was a tumour and watch their face freeze. It was hilarious and totally took the sting out of it. Bet that’s the last time they’ll ask someone their due date!

English

Megan E. Boyd@LadyLegalWriter·16 Mar

Someone just asked my due date. I am not pregnant. A reminder, once again, that unless a woman tells you she is pregnant, please don’t assume. It’s really hurtful.

@goudy_pete @kadamssl @jenn_angelheart If all the non-asthmatic kids were wearing masks, then your child’s risk (unmasked) would go down. Masks work best when all people are wearing them and they work well when most are wearing them. No need to throw everything out just because one solution is slightly better.

@kadamssl @jenn_angelheart And if your kid has asthma and a mask impedes their breathing....? Mine brings home a cold once per month.

I’m STUNNED that one of the comments after this story was, “I’m sure @MarleeMatlin can lip read. What a drama Queen.” No, not all D/deaf people can lip read and how would she “lip read” voices offscreen or other sounds, even if she can? variety.com/2023/film/news…

I’m getting so tired of media & doctors that they quote, obsessing over the mildness of symptoms of COVID. Remember another example of a mild virus with long-term disabling, deadly effects? AIDS from HIV. Wake up people!
