I’m Black, Latino, gay and disabled. I’m very liberal with a blue heart 💙 I was so happy to leave that other app filled with so much toxicity. I’m very happy to be surrounded by like-minded folks. You’re safe in my space. 😀

Happy 10 year anniversary to my husband. We dated for 4 years and married for 6 years in June. I created this with Meta AI from an old picture from our engagement pictures. #LoveWins #10YearAnniversary #LoveIsLove #mlm #ILoveMyHusband #metaai #endals

All of the so-called "patriots" who are cheering the felon's dismantling of DEI is indicative as to why it was needed in the first place. That's right. There are people among us who never wanted women, the disabled, or people of color to have equal opportunities. True story☕️

OMG I am so excited. The agency that sends me home health aides just let me know that they finally have a male on staff they can send to me. I’ve been waiting for this for almost a year. All the women they’ve sent have been great, but I’m a big guy so it’s been difficult doing transfers.

Omw to a funeral and not looking fwd to all the transfers I’ll have to do. Not having a core makes it so difficult. If we had a van transfers to cars would no longer be a problem. Does anyone know a way to get a wheelchair accessible van. It would really make the difference in my well-being. #endals

Because I have not qualified for Medicaid yet, and that’s the only thing that covers in home care, I have been paying for a home health aide out of pocket. Today I was blessed with a grant from The Peter Frates Family Foundation that will help cover the costs for a couple of months. These grants

This is wonderful news for people living with SOD1–ALS (familial), which affects only 5% of the #ALS population. Unfortunately, they haven’t made this type of advancement for the other 95% of us, which is considered sporadic. ALS is still a 100% fatal disease. #endals

This progress is made possible because of people like you—the ALS community. It’s your strength, your voices, and your commitment to advancing research that drive breakthroughs like this.

These three insanely wealthy men who will sit on Trump's dais could not have realized much of their riches without the decision by the Clinton-Gore administration to open the government developed internet for public growth and investment. As they greedily hope to reshape government, remember this.
