@McDonalds I’ve used the Double cheeseburger or 6 piece nugget get a 2nd one for .29 center deal for months to buy two double cheeseburgers. Today the same store I always go to tells me it only works with one chicken nugget and one sandwich. Manager confirmed. What happened?

People use wheelchairs for independent mobility. Do not write "confined to a wheelchair" or "wheelchair-bound." Say a person uses a wheelchair only if relevant to the story.

Neighbor to me, a wheelchair user:”I don’t like the word disabled. It’s too negative.
What do you call yourself?”
Me:”Disabled.”
Neighbor:”You’re not disabled. I refuse to use that word.”
Nondisabled people don’t get a vote on what disabled people choose to call ourselves.

Don't use words that suggest pity, such as afflicted with, battling or suffers from any disability or illness, or that a person overcame her disability.
Instead: living with dementia, has cancer, being treated for ADHD, etc.

Going back to normal is not positive for most of us. Disabled people will have to go back and fight for those same accommodations that was easily given last year to abled bodied people. Mostly will get denied.

Reminder that disabled people are not included in most building evacuation plans. I'm glad that there was one exception to that rule this time -- but it is the exception. Most of us aren't US Senators?

For those keeping track, the dangers to our health in 2020 have come from:
- a global pandemic
- murder hornets
- Miss Vickie's chips
- hedgehogs
Seems reasonable. (please RT) #StaySafe

UPDATE: There have been 21 additional #Salmonella illnesses linked to hedgehogs. Kissing and cuddling a hedgehog can spread Salmonella to your face or mouth and make you sick. Find out how to protect your family: ow.ly/Ch5j50CzNEV

@AndyHillMKM If you live in a part of the country with termites, the tenting of the home before you move in...shocking dollar amount!

@Talar13 Thank you! Things are ok for the time being, hoping for the best.

@protectedstatic Or you could be the UberEats driver I saw at McDonalds just peeing into the bushes in their parking lot.

fat acceptance has never been abt "promoting an unhealthy lifestyle" its about treating people with respect no matter what they look like and what their health is like bc a fat persons health is none of your business and it does not justify you treating them like theyre not human

@zaralynda Any chance it could have been college kids that went home early when colleges went remote?

The correct term is sexual orientation. "Sexual preference" is a term often used by anti-LGBTQ activists to imply that sexual orientation is a choice.

Asked by Feinstein if she agreed with Scalia’s criticism of same sex marriage ruling, Barrett says: “I’m not going to express a view ... I really can’t do that in any point of law” because the issue might come before her. “I would not discrimanate on basis of sexual preference.”

@nkostelic 3 of 4 of us in this house have not. 1 did get a haircut when salons opened here briefly back in May.

@rooster_irl Maybe I should consider that. I noticed my retail was almost 100 GB last night. I moved it to a new SSD yesterday (it was in a smaller SSD before).
