This is your periodic reminder that ambulatory wheelchair users exist. Many folks think wheelchairs are only for those who can't walk at all, or folks who can only take a couple steps.
Wheelchairs and electric scooters are used due to pain, weakness, balance issues, orthostatic intolerance, etc.

“there is something you’re forgetting. you check. you check again. there is nothing you’re forgetting. there is something you’re forgetting.
“you have had a tune stuck in your head for three days now. it is not a tune that exists on earth. it will not leave.”
USA followers! You can order more free COVID tests today. Please request yours even if you don't think you need them. They're good to have on hand and the more people who order, the more it shows the government there is a need.
subtoot, anarchism and marginalized lenses of it
I don't know, like as a poor, disabled, and TMA person, I literally can't imagine anything but anarchy "working".
Like, when is authoritarian control of anything helpful? What does beauracracy ever do to benefit me? What is a pro of police, laws, capitalism, and systems of oppression?
The pursuit through theory and praxis of abolishment of them is anarchy. Why would you not be an anarchist?

There are a lot of bipoc and disabled people that advocate for anarchy actually.

My spoons are limited, so I may not always have the energy to respond to messages.
Strong views about abolishing oppression, hierarchy, agency, and self-governance - but I also trust people by default and give them room to grow, unless they give me reason not to. That all also applies to technology and how it's built.
