Voting is Your POWER<p>COURAGE is CONTAGIOUS! SPREAD IT!</p><p>“The willingness of thousands of Americans to speak out and show up should encourage fellow Americans to protest these efforts to divide and conquer law firms, universities, and other aspects of civil society. To sustain that movement, every individual can join, support, or initiate some type of peaceful protest. Ordinary people can also use their purchasing power (and choice of university) to make value-based decisions.</p><p>If democracy advocates can change the incentive structure, perhaps we will see fewer examples of the kind of cowardice displayed by Paul Weiss-type law firms and Columbia University-style universities. That means those who have relationships (e.g., clients, employees, associations) and the public at large can use carrots and sticks to influence craven and fearful institutions. If that occurs, then we might stand a fighting chance against the forces of authoritarianism.” <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/resist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>resist</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/resistance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>resistance</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/uspol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>uspol</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/uspolitics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>uspolitics</span></a></p><p><a href="https://contrarian.substack.com/p/how-to-beat-back-trumps-divide-and" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">contrarian.substack.com/p/how-</span><span class="invisible">to-beat-back-trumps-divide-and</span></a></p>
Broadwaybabyto<p>It took me over a decade to realize I was disabled.</p><p>Internalized ableism is no joke. It can lead us to push our bodies and deny our reality.</p><p>I was a sickly child my whole life - but we didn’t discover the reasons until I turned 30. It was validating to finally have answers. A name for my conditions, explanations for why I never felt well &amp; why my body couldn’t do what other people could. </p><p>Despite my now having validation and multiple diagnoses of chronic illness and disability - I didn’t identify as disabled. I was still working, still supporting myself…<br>So surely that meant I wasn’t right? I was scared of what it would mean if I said I was disabled. </p><p>Would people judge me? Think less of me? Would my non disabled friends distance themselves and would disabled people think I wasn’t “disabled enough”? I recognize now these were questions that were mainly due to my own internalized ableism. </p><p>I was worried about these things<br>because I didn’t understand dynamic disability.</p><p>I was also grieving my health. Even though I was sick before the diagnosis - once they had a name and no cure I had to come to terms with the fact that I was never going to get better.</p><p>I was likely the most functional I would ever be - and would probably lose function as I aged. That reality hit me like a ton of bricks and it took me a long time to reach a point of acceptance. </p><p>An injury followed by a viral infection took my remaining function away from me and left me completely housebound.</p><p>It wasn’t until a caring and compassionate doctor explained the concept of dynamic disability that I realized I WAS disabled and that I had been for many years. </p><p>This good doctor encouraged me to write about my experiences to help others - and while it took me time to become confident enough to speak out - I’m so glad I did. </p><p>The fact that I had so much fear of judgement, so much difficulty accepting reality only served to show me why we need more disability advocates. We need people telling their stories. It helps with acceptance of chronic illness &amp; educates others on dynamic disability </p><p>If Covid has taught us anything it’s that a large number of people still see the disabled as “expendable”.</p><p>How many times have we heard “Covid is mild unless you have pre-existing conditions”. This has been the party line for the entire pandemic </p><p>Many folks don’t realize that it’s rooted in ableism. To say it’s only dangerous for those who are already sick is to say that we don’t matter. That killing or maiming us is acceptable as long as the non disabled can continue to live life as though we’ve gone back to 2019 </p><p>As a result many disabled and high risk individuals have been isolating for five years. Have been quietly exited from society to protect themselves. We started to re-enter the world when high quality respirators became easily available - but even that is problematic </p><p>We get bullied from the “covid is over” crowd. They want us at home. They want us to not exist. Because we are a constant reminder of their own mortality and the fact that they are risking disability every time they get a Covid infection. </p><p>But here’s the incredible thing I’ve seen happen in the last few years. The disability community are organizing. They may be isolated at home but they’ve found community online. They’ve galvanized around inspiring leaders with strong voices and are creating a movement. </p><p>Not just for Covid caution &amp; Long Covid but for the rights of disabled people across the world. For better access to healthcare, more inclusion and recognition of diversity and minority groups. Hashtags, campaigns and artwork have started taking off. We are getting louder </p><p>Activism is more important now than ever before, as we face existential threats due to the changing political landscape.</p><p>It’s a powerful moment for intersectionality. All of us who are marginalized can and should be working together to bring about change </p><p>It’s a scary time, but I have hope whenever I see people speaking out. Sharing stories. Refusing to go gently.</p><p>I’m glad to have finally stepped up and found my voice - and I hope that by sharing my story I play a small role in making the world safer </p><p>If you’re disabled or chronically ill (or even if you aren’t sure) and you’re afraid to speak up - please don’t be. Speak up. Reach out. Share your story. There’s an incredible community waiting for you and we will lift you up and help you find your voice.</p><p>Activism is important right now, but so is pacing. We must work to save our spoons amidst the torrent of bad news &amp; stress we’re inundated with.</p><p>“We are a community. We carry each other through the tough times. Our love and support knows no borders, so when a group of us are hurting we all hurt”</p><p><a href="https://www.disabledginger.com/p/spoon-saving-social-media-tips-and" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">disabledginger.com/p/spoon-sav</span><span class="invisible">ing-social-media-tips-and</span></a></p><p><a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/covidisairborne" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>covidisairborne</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/chronicillness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>chronicillness</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/disability" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>disability</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/ableism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ableism</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/covidisnotover" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>covidisnotover</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/resist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>resist</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/spoonie" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>spoonie</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/disabilityrights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>disabilityrights</span></a></p>

David Ruffner<p>I joined in the Tesla Takedown protest in Paramus, NJ, today. There were a bunch of counter-protesters which made it tense. Some of them got in our faces. I tried to de-escalate things when it got heated around me. It helped.</p><p>I had some nice conversations with some of the other protesters and even a couple of the counter protesters.</p><p>But honestly, I left the protest feeling troubled. This is an understatement, but there is a huge disconnect between the groups. The counter-protesters seemed genuinely confused about why we were protesting. And we couldn't fathom why they support the current regime. Even if we "win", if a good chunk of the country hates us, then it will be a hollow victory. Somehow, I want to find a way for understanding and even cooperation between the groups. </p><p><a href="https://raphus.social/tags/teslaTakedown" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>teslaTakedown</span></a><br><a href="https://raphus.social/tags/resist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>resist</span></a></p>

x is now xAI.

It's basically a debt swap.
He is using this a way to pay out the expiring notes on his Twitter purchase and offsetting the chance of calls on his Tesla's stock.. which still backs everything.

So it's a paper deal. There is more.

xAI fully owns X and all of your data. This includes your musings, thoughts, posts, observations, direct messages, comments, analyses, and everything else you've shared on that platform.

There’s no justification for visiting that site; it raises serious concerns to maintain an account on such a controversial platform. And it's highly circumspect to have a nazi account on the nazi site.

MobilizeHands Off! Eugene Fights Back · Hands Off**Donald Trump and Elon Musk think this country belongs to them.** We are fighting back! They're taking everything they can get their hands on—our health care, our data, our jobs, our services—and daring the world to stop them. This is a crisis, and the time to act is now. 🚨 **On Saturday, April 5th, we're taking to the streets to fight back with a clear message: Hands off!** 🚨 This mass mobilization day is our message to the world that we do not consent to the destruction of our government and our economy for the benefit of Trump and his billionaire allies. Alongside Americans across the country, we are marching, rallying, and protesting to demand a stop the chaos and build an opposition movement against the looting of our country. A core principle behind all Hands Off! events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values. This mobilization in Eugene Springfield is collectively organized by the Activist Coalition of Eugene Springfield (ACES). This coalition includes Indivisible Eugene Springfield, 50501 Eugene, Springfield-Eugene SURJ, Eugene, Party for Socialism & Liberation (PSL), Transponder/Lavender Network, Oregon Community Asylum Network (OCAN), Beyond Toxics, & Trans Alliance of Lane County (TALC) Check out handsoff2025.com for more information.
