Good morning Mastodonia! Figure I should do a quasi #introduction toot with all the new folks coming in from [edit: whatever the latest mess is] I post a variety of things, but generally it is at some intersection of #adversity and #humour.If you have put on pants today I am already proud of you. If you haven't, I might be even more proud.If you have questions or need help connecting to folks, hit me up. I will either help or boost. 💖#spoonie #actuallyAutistic

Hey my lovies, [edit:covid has trashed my brain long term], it has really crushed my social juice and my ability to word. I surface to toot when I can to stay connected to ya'll, but often fall down in conversation. So please take all my ⭐boops and emojis as full of all the love and enjoyment of your comments and thoughts and lolz when I can't say more. I often lurk and just enjoy as it rolls by, even if I can't ignite my brain enough to interact. So keep on tootin' my beloved weirdos.

Deep thought: All the carbon atoms in our bodies have at some point been through the digestive track of a termite. So yeah, we're made of stardust, but like also, bug poo.

@nev @TVOntario Good article. Good recommendations: •Protect human rights by progressively realizing the right to an adequate standard of living.•Address systemic causes of poverty for marginalized communities.•Ensure income supports are adequate to afford housing.End shelter benefit clawbacks for unhoused recipients.Expand deeply affordable housing supply to match the scale of need.Confront systemic discrimination in housing and employment.

@nev @TVOntario I would also like to add, while most disabled people are not able to work, we are a walking economic stimulus package. Do you have any idea how many people I would employ if given enough resources to take care of myself? Pharmacists, food services, physical therapists, psychologists, home supports, transportation.... A high tide floats all boats. Support disabled people and lift the whole fekkin economy up too. #disabilityJustice #ONpoli #CDNpoli #CANpoli

Barf! My first phishing account full of AI pap. 🤮Heads up folks, they're leaning into pseudo-earnest as a style now.

In case you need to hear it: Continuing to survive in a society that just wants to consume you and throw you away is punk af. Well done. Carry on. ...also, messy surviving is still surviving.

Gentle reminder, when someone is sharing some small piece of resistance they have done, DO NOT SHIT ON IT. Do not tell them it isn't enough or it's still bad because blah blah other stuff... Everyone is tired and overwhelmed and trying to find some accessible way they can push back. Cheer that! Celebrate the small; celebrate the imperfect. No single action is gonna solve everything, but a whole bunch of small actions start the sea change. Don't punch down when we all need lifting up.

Somebody on here will know this: How far underground would you have to be for it it be 15°C all the time. Asking for a friend. ...and by a friend, I mean secret cult I'm gonna start as soon as I find a shovel.
