All we can do is use this month to bring attention to what's lacking for those of us who are disabled. We have a voice, but we need others to listen. There's no pride in how we are STILL treated. Please pass it on. Help us be heard.

And yet, MAGA has complained in the past about how "Demonrats use the dead to fake votes." What in the hell is it when your government is too slow and stupid to fix a broken system? What is it called when THEY refuse to label the dead completely dead? What do we do? How do we fix this mess?

Today, it is a problem. Not only because my son and I face homelessness if my income isn't adjusted, but because no matter how many times I talk to a SSA representative, NOTHING IS FIXED. My husband has been dead since April, but to the government, he's still alive.

Since his death, I am two years too young to qualify for survivor's benefits, so I must transition back to the SSI I haven't received since 2019 because my son's paycheck and my husband's SSDI were taken into account for how much I received.

My husband was, and I am disabled. We were/are both mocked and dismissed by the medical staff we choose to care for us. We were/are overlooked and undertreated by the insurance companies who were supposed to care for us. We are mere talking points for the politicians who use us to garner votes.

My apologies to so many. I have been unsure of how to move forward since my husband, who was the loudest voice behind this account (and I, but a smidge of snark), passed away from the complications of cancer in April. It's Disability Pride Month, and spreading awareness is all I know to do.

Codifying Roe, passing the John Lewis Voting Rights Act, and holding members of this administration criminally accountable are important goals, but none of it sticks without Supreme Court reform.

Texas voters just sent the book banners packing. Not in California. Not in New York. In Texas. Across the state, voters went to the polls and threw out right-wing school board members who built their local political brands on book bans, anti-LGBTQ policies and Christian nationalist culture-war panic

Funny how Republicans rediscover deficit panic only when a Democrat is president. The Congressional Budget Office now says projected deficits are expected to be $2 trillion higher over the next decade after SCOTUS' recent tariff ruling and Trump's recent policy changes.

At this point the only SCOTUS decision that would feel credible is for six of the Justices to start wearing white robes.
