I’d like to say I don’t understand what you’re going through.

I’m a 3x attempt survivor, disabled, and terrified. I’m on SSDI, Medicare/Medicaid, and in HUD housing. My situation is not the same but I see you.

I wish there was more I could offer, but you are not alone.

As a nearly 50 year old dude, never heard of it either

Ok, so does this kick off WW3 or are other nations just going to roll over and allow this to happen?

How the hell is this even a plausible timeline we’re living in?

This is happening and all he can do is laugh? There’s no anger, no outrage, just sitting saying “I’ve never…” and continuing on with business.

Republicans are codependents and Democrats are the enablers. I don’t even know who the hell the victims are because there’s a huge portion of this country that is ok with this or still think decorum is the right thing to do.

Meanwhile I’m over here terrified and traumatized since February because I’m a “parasite” and wondering when I’ll be homeless or in a camp.

Oh hey! I narrowly avoided this one. No SNAP here (yet)! Only SSDI, Medicaid/Medicare, and HUD housing 🤨

And Schumer will send another strongly worded letter.

Freaking ass had the chance to alter history potentially and he fucked it up.

Took me D_C's comment to get it and even then it took me a minute to find the marshmallow and realize it wasn't on the plate anymore 🤦🏻

Me: Doc, I'm in constant pain, my lower back is killing me, my hips are killing me, and random parts of my body go numb or twitch and randomly hurt for no rhyme or reason.

Doc: You need to lose weight and see a therapist, this is most likely depression and anxiety.

Therapist: Yes, you have depression and anxiety, but the 7 years of therapy you've had shows it's not just anxiety or depression causing this, advocate for yourself.

Friend: Have you tried yoga?

I once worked at a retail job where at one time I had to work the 7AM shift. I get there and I’m the only male and all three of the female coworkers were pregnant.

I learned more about the female body than any single man should ever know.

Wait…. Did I miss something? What’s going on in South Africa that we take on refugees? Shouldn’t we be, I dunno, accepting refugees from Gaza and Ukraine instead?

DEI and “woke culture” made me feel seen as a person with a disability and a facial paralysis. 100 years ago I would have been an orphan and hidden away. Not long before that I would have been “sacrificed” as an evil baby.

Did corporations cash in on that? Yes they did because that’s all corporations are supposed to do is make money and bleed the consumer.

If you are anti-woke and anti-DEI then you’re really saying you want to include everyone who looks like you and relegate those who don’t to obscurity either by way of deportation, exile, slavery, or death. It’s exactly like what every country perpetuating genocide has done in history.

What is your solution to my problem of again not feeling like I can go out in public because of this administration’s policies. What about to the LGBTQIA people who are afraid that their marriage will be nulled or are also afraid to go out in public?

Are you ok with fixing people different from you back to isolation, declining mental health, and attempts to take their life because of getting rid of DEI?
