Hey friends, if I can ask for a moment of your time and ask you to sign this petition.

The Telegraph recently posted a horrifically ableist piece about chronically ill “influencers” (most people involved would consider themselves advocates), blaming chronically ill people for dropping employment numbers by “normalizing wokeness” and insinuating that visibly disabled and chronically ill people online are only doing so for monetary gain.

I’m not going to link to the article because I don’t want to give it any more views or clicks but you can feel free to look it up yourself. There are also excerpts from the article included in the above petition.

The journalist involved, Natasha Leake, intentionally lied to the influencers involved, claiming she supported what they were doing and wanted to raise awareness about their conditions. Needless to say what was printed was not supportive and the people involved are devastated.

And if you’re thinking this sounds like a rehash of something the BBC did a few years ago when they tried to pit disabled people against chronically ill people and made insinuations about “sickfluencers” being in it for the money, you’d be right.

Same old shit, different media outlet.

There has been a huge push back in media against chronically ill and disabled people over the last few years, in part because our governments are moving more toward fascism and they want you to feel apathy towards the neglect and suffering their policies cause. The media is a tool of this.

Please don’t let us be the only ones fighting back against it. No matter how healthy and abled you currently are, you are just one bad accident, one unexpected illness or fluke of genetics away from joining us.

Please spread and sign demanding that the Telegraph remove this defaming and ableist article and issue a public apology. Thank you 💖

Large Bastard was busy having organs swapped and I was moving us between two states in 2021 and in the overwhelming state of crushing panic I didn't even realize that we'd missed filing our taxes until 2023. I thought we'd filed too late to qualify for the stimulus, and was shocked when a check showed up last week.

If you haven't filed your 2021 taxes for any reason, you have until April 15th 2025 to file your 2021 taxes to receive your unclaimed stimulus check.

I don't really think it's fair to dismiss the idea that that guy might have been framed for killing the CEO as like an unfounded conspiracy theory when NYPD has a proven history of planting/fabricating evidence on people. in 2011 there was a massive investigation of the NYPD and hundreds of cases against people were dismissed after a former police officer testified that they literally have a name for planting evidence on people: flaking. you cannot be out here acting like considering the possibility that cops who do this shit under normal circumstances might possibly also do it when they're under intense global pressure and scrutiny is the same as republicans thinking democrats run a secret pedophile ring in the basement of a pizza restaurant

I thihk that the most annoying thing about the Palestine fundraiser scambots is that they capitalize on the tragedies of real people and then the real people have to jump through so many hoops just to get saved. It's a misery machine. It's despicable. I hope they catch these scammers and put them away forever, quite honestly. For such an annoying crime, they sure are good at getting people killed.

Don't donate to a fundraiser that hasn't been vetted by a source you trust. Don't signal boost people in your inbox unless you trust them. Don't take the bait because they're pretending to be scared and hopeless. They're not Palestine, they're just using Palestines face to make a quick buck off of your compassion.

I hope every writer who sees this writes LOADS the next few months. Like freetime opens up, no writers block, the ability to focus, etc etc you're able to write loads & make lots of progress <3

this is exclusively for those of us who've had their posts stolen to tiktok, because I have a theory.

...a very, very dumb working theory. Tumblr, as we know, is bullshit, and since it's a blogging platform, there are features that tumblr uses to make the site more palatable that aren't quite the same as other sites. So,

Bald people* need not apply. Feel free to send/share this with anyone you've seen who's had their posts scraped so that we can see if this is true; @stealingyourbones confirmed that they hardly use them and ergo none of their scraped posts had them, so we can see if that's a factor in this nonsense in any way

Kix is fine. Coric disagrees, but what does he know? (Stitches has a solution.) (This solution involves tooka-eyes.)

The Soft Wars Windfall Exchange 2024 led to me writing Kix for the first time in a while, based… an embarrassing amount on my own experience with The Winter Coughs (I blame my students) earlier in the holiday season. Coric is doing his best. Kix is… well, he’s doing something, at least.

Kenobi always said the Force had a sense of humor. He wasn't lying, 17 thought, staring in resignation at the five cadets in front of him.

~or~

17 makes a wish on Windfall and it comes true.
