They’re one of the most impactful pro-Palestine movements with direct involvement against Israel’s crimes and violations, so they need all the support we can give them.

Israel is once again bombing and massacring Palestinians in Gaza as we speak with the help of equipments and drones made in Elbit factories, support Palestine Action in any way you can.

If you make those stupid “what if people treat physical health like mental health” just. Stop. Because they do. They Literally Do!

People DO say “oh you have to at least make an effort. You just need to change your frame of mind.” That’s stuff I Have been told about my pain. I’m crying from pain from standing because of my mindset. Oh you need to make an effort to stay on your feet and walk.

People DO say it’s bad to have to take medicine everyday! The example was insulin and I guarantee you that happens! Insurance companies denying meds because you don’t need it! Doctors refusing to give meds because you don’t need it and it’s bad to take meds everyday. Do y’all even know how HARD getting pain meds is?

“It’s like you’re not even trying. Lying in bed isn’t helping” FUCK OFF. People literally say this to physically disabled people. You aren’t making a point. You’re just being ignorant and lacking fucking compassion for disabled folks. GOD

imagine the most meanspirited, unlikeable, rude, bitter, self centered, negative person you can think of. not a rapist, not a murderer, not an abuser. just a charmless, tactless, dyed in the wool asshole you wouldn't want to spend two seconds with. now assume they get sick, not with the flu, but with a long term, serious illness that limits their ability to provide for themself. a society in which that person is left to die alone because nobody likes them on a personal level is a failed society.

[sadhoc]

and the thing is, no matter how likeable or charming or cute you are, peoples' patience runs out. the friends who drop everything to rush you to the ER the first time you shit blood tell you to stop being so tmi the fourteenth time. people might give you a couch to crash on the first week after your shitty ex kicks you out, but by week eight, you better have another place to stay. people run out of time, patience, money, compassion, energy. there needs to be an impersonal option, a real safety net that isn't going to dump you when you become inconvenient
