The truth is most people think being disabled is a death sentence but instead of advocating for disabled people they r convinced that they’ll never become disabled as if being disabled is some biblical punishment. Guess what? Accidents happen. You will get old and your body will stop working like it used to. Imagine if we live in a world where disability is seen as normal. Where we actually take care of each other.
Also I don’t think we have as many abled body people in the world as we think. I think many people are so terrified of being disabled that they r willing overwork themselves to prove they can do it. Many people deal with chronic pain and physical health issues in silence. Because they don’t want to be burden. I think we should be burden to each other and i think labor should be shared.
And for people who do not have children - 20 years from now you will only have an empty space where wonderful time with your friends, your partner, and yourself will be. You won’t remember (or likely profit from) the Very Important Thing your company needed you for. You will be poorer for it, because in that space and time you could have had concerts, dancing, being there for friends that needed you, reading a great book, learning a new language, trying a different recipe, drinking wine and sharing your thoughts with someone you love.
Live your life for yourself and the people that love you - not for a corporation or a company.
so if I’m getting this right, not only did Elon Musk just essentially publically admit that he fired a guy from Twitter because the guy has muscular dystrophy, but said guy was literally on a Do Not Fire list because he’d sold his company to twitter, took it as wages so he’d pay higher taxes to give back to his home country’s welfare state, AND his contract stated that twitter would need to pay him millions of dollars if he was ever terminated?
we’ve passed beyond absolute scenes. we’re in the realm of Ultimate Scenes.
And he is backpedaling like CRAZY because you know his lawyers are screaming in his face about everything he just opened himself up to
That last bit is REALLY FUNNY because this all popped off because Musk didn’t communicate with this guy at all until Halli was forced to tweet at him about it.
Musk truly is the stupidest motherfucker in the planet.
Okay, not to be overdramatic but this is one of those things that makes me feel so in awe and in love with people. OP spent their time making this?? And it’s delightful?? And full of compassion and curiosity about strangers on a hellsite. Take what you need, take a breath, enjoy this shared moment of human experience. I did. 💜
