Marginalized people, poor people, disabled people etc. are always the first to warn society about an impending crisis. And they are almost always ignored. Yet, when everything collapses, they are the first to be abandoned. This is an unacceptable moral injustice.
If your boss won't let you evacuate: Convince as many coworkers as you can to all leave together & contact us right away
You have the right to organize & leave an unsafe worksite. If they're not bluffing & still try to fire you after the storm, we'll help you fight it

It’s OCD awareness month!🧵✨
Here’s a friendly reminder for ur local OCD bestie that OCD isn’t a cute & quirky trait that revolves around cleaning. OCD is debilitating. It’s a mental illness. It’s a disability. It’s a form of neurodivergence.

With Twitch’s acknowledgment of the disabled community through the shelf after years of advocacy from disabled streamers, I hope masking is a requirement at TC2025. We are acknowledging that disabled streamers are in need of more support already. Take the next step!

If you become suddenly disabled or chronically ill - your whole world shifts. It’s a harsh adjustment to move from the land of the healthy into a world of constant sickness.
You lose friends & family, healthcare gets harder to access and you face discrimination & ableism 🧵/1
Isn't it wild how covid unsafe people seem to live life without a care in the world, finding love and connection and success and work, and the rest of us are like "hope maybe I can find a real friend who values my life and health and safety"

Y’all ever think about how people really got fired from their jobs because they refused to get the covid vaccine, and we had to have vaccination cards to go places, but now masks are being banned and now you can even send your kids to school with lice and diarrhea? I do.

Keeping us exhausted and apathetic to all these ongoing horrors *is* the point
Divorcing us from our own humanity *is* the point
Conditioning us to value profit, property & material possessions over human life *is* the point
Our continued exploitation *is* the point

Y’all will drink oil shots, rub vanilla extract on your forehead, do a nightly dance and sleep with onions under your pillow to avoid getting sick because you saw it on facebook, but you’ll outright refuse to wear a mask because you think it’s silly.
Very cool.

I am gay and @Twitch said I’m cool for it. I’m a member of the new Twitch Pride Unity Guild and I’m so excited to be even more gay /hj 💌

A lot of you are disabled and you don't know it because society has brainwashed you with ableism.

I don’t remember entire schools closing down for illness when I was growing up
This is a common occurrence post-2020 but that doesn’t make it normal, healthy, or sustainable
The elephant in the room is only growing larger but no one wants to address it

I remarked that I need a “man prop” to come with me to the hospital & help demonstrate the need for HCWs to mask around me (and ensure I’m not gaslit).
I loathe that this is necessary - but it IS necessary.
You should always bring an advocate to the hospital. Here’s why 🧵/1

it’s so wild to me that there are people who are okay wearing an underwire bra every single day outside their house for their whole lives (starting as teenagers), but a mask that could save your life and keep your health in tact is just too much. 🙃

Hey, remember when we cut down on air travel for the pandemic and more people worked from home and we had a noticeable cooling of the atmosphere?
What if we just did that?
What if we required jobs to allow people to work from home and cut air travel, switching to high speed rail?

hi pals! I have another UserVoice idea that one of my pals brought up as a concern as a disabled creator. Many disabled creators cannot make money on Twitch so they opt out of Affiliate, but this means they also cannot join guilds and shelves. twitch.uservoice.com/forums/…

No genuinely I don't get the appeal of Chik-Fil-A. I don't understand why y'all are in an abusive relationship with the kind of food you can find next to the deli at Wal-Mart.

Because parents are the most common abusers of children.

Why does my kid need to be taught consent from the schools, when I, as a parent, do it in my home?
