I am ALMOST DONE with my uni semester (8 papers to go with 13 days left) and then I am BACK ON THE CLOCK (and by that I mean open for writing silly little skits and bits for other people to act out on yootoob)
@elaifresh
mate. i can make breakfast. i’m not speaking for me. besides, i’m graduating with three degrees. i just happen to know that my circumstances aren’t universal and that disabled people exist. just because i can make myself breakfast doesn’t mean other people can.
@elaifresh
some of us are disable/have chronic illness so it’s either use all of our energy for the day making a breakfast or sacrifice money to save that energy for other things. obviously not all people have these problems, but some do. let’s not judge lest we be judged <3
@Solidarity_Star
I’m saying this genuinely but you should book yourself a therapy appointment because this is deep trauma you’ll carry with you. There’s a reason why people who work with reporting and taking down CSE and CP are mandated therapy and regular absences. This will mess you up for ages
@Solidarity_Star
I honestly think that if you’re exposed to this content Elon should be sued and forced to pay for any damages related to mental health and emotional damage and that is not a joke
@ECDenFan
@elaifresh
wow so disabled people are just entitled and spoiled? cool take bro. just because i’m disabled and can make my own breakfast doesn’t mean it’s the same for everyone. and even i can’t do it every day because I AM DISABLED. and some days are worse than others.
@PostsFresh
@elaifresh
believe it or not, disabled people either had people to care for them or struggled on their own. why is it so hard to accept that sometimes people do things to make their lives easier? i’m sure you do things like that all the time. they don’t need to justify themselves.
@sinner6k
@elaifresh
the disabled experience isn’t universal. i guarantee that amputees have hard days too where they may *gasp* order breakfast instead of expending the energy. it costs literally nothing to be empathetic. why are you assuming my disabilities? why do i need to explain myself to you?
hi i genuinely am about to cry because rather than anything productive getting done during the

@elaifresh
have you ever met a disabled person because this reeks of ignorance. are disabled people not allowed to have nice things? are they just supposed to be miserable all the time? why can’t they treat themselves once in a while just like you do? it costs nothing to be kind.

as a classics student i wanna talk to her about her favorite myths and encourage her interest in classical mythology beyond the greeks!!! she’s so annabeth-coded it’s insane the casting was perfect on this one <3
@clancy_chief
@updatespercy
dawg you’re a grown ass person complaining about a 13 year old who was cast out of an open call of literally 10 thousand other girls. she’s qualified in the eyes of the literal author, who hand-picked her. disney has nothing to do with it and you’re just being racist lmfao

King David and Johnathan were literally lovers so take several seats. (sources: II Samuel 1:26, I Samuel 18:1-5; 20:1-23, 35-42; 20:41; 28:32-34; 20:12-17, 42)

Rabbi Ruttenberg has some writings discussing this i believe
@sinner6k
@elaifresh
i agree but i would also like to point out that neither I nor the original poster said ordering doordash every day. but people have been misconstruing my perfectly legitimate point in bad faith. i was merely pointing out that if being hungover is an excuse, so is disability.
listen. I’m the biggest Reagan hater in the world but this is in fact true. Biden is being a coward because he doesn’t want to piss folks off before the election. How much money is the Israel lobby putting into his campaign right now?
Reagan got Israel to stop bombing Lebanon within 20 MINUTES after a phone call to their Prime Minister. The idea that Biden’s been desperately trying to get a ceasefire unsuccessfully for months is absurd. It’s cope for Dems who can’t fathom that he’s complicit in genocide.
@CaraMorris98
@historyinmemes
okay but what about the 7th century mosques, the libraries with ancient manuscripts that can’t be found anywhere else, and the museums being bombed in Gaza and West Bank by the Israeli government? You know, UNESCO sites? Why not call for Israel to stop bombing civilian sites?
@elaifresh
doubling down doesn’t make your point any better. can we dispense with the casual ableism please? i truly don’t understand why this is your hill to die on.
also pls stop shitting on nathan chen!!! he’s not being homophobic to someone who isn’t gay!! i’m so tired about the “uwu yuzu our sweet gay king is being bullied by nathan and his high scores” like ??? firstly gross? secondly why? for what reason?

@elaifresh
where did i say this was limited to mental health disorders? and even so, there are some mental health disorders that have physical effects on energy, mobility, concentration, and motivation. just because it doesn’t affect you doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. be kind. it’s free.

i’m seeing Shang-Chi for the first time tonight knowing full well i haven’t watched a full Marvel production since i finished the second half of Infinity War earlier this year
@FlippantNomad
@elaifresh
I literally said that people have different circumstances? I’m literally disabled and I can make breakfast. Other people can’t. Did posting this make you feel better?
sorry, the republicans and the 8 democrats who voted no on $15 an hour minimum are only allowed to make $7.50 until they realize that no one can do that sustainably i don’t make the rules
@Moonbae222
As someone who studied classical civilizations this is so true and it’s extra infuriating because people ALSO deliberately ignore the contributions of civilizations in Mesopotamia/pre-Islamic Africa and the impacts those had on Western Canon (which is also BS in my opinion)
@cletesensei
@botulismsundae
@froaxi
@aggiebilly
@elaifresh
wow okay. i was trying to make a legitimate point because disabilities don’t have to be visible to exist or affect one’s life. you know nothing about me or my circumstances, nor anyone else’s. did commenting this make you feel better? feel superior? please reflect on yourself.
honestly huge props to

for striking together. they’re on the front lines of a labor revolution in the face of antagonistic class warfare from corporations and the ultra rich. i wish everyone on the picket line well and i hope more unions follow their example 😈
hate on me all u want but this is infantilization, fetishization, and pitting two bad bitches against each other to cry homophobia. THEYRE LITERALLY FRIENDS DONT MANUFACTURE A RIVALRY WHERE THERE ISNT ONE

@elaifresh
OPs original point was that it’s only acceptable to doordash breakfast when you’re extremely hungover. i pointed out that this is a dismissal of plenty of people’s circumstances. why do you feel the need to attack a perfectly valid point with a straw man? do you feel better?

i’m asking you to please pull out of the Color the Spectrum event. None of the organizers are autistic. their goal is to “cure and prevent” autism, a condition that does not need to be cured. that idea is based in eugenics.
@SirSwish6
@elaifresh
my point was that i don’t need to justify my actions to this random man. he decided to pounce on me with an ad homonym instead of accepting that i made a legitimate point. good on you for the degrees though! that’s pretty impressive!!

@elaifresh
ok but he’s conducting an ad homonym attack on *me* instead of admitting that disabled people have just as much of a right to use doordash as hungover people so…

#TransDayOfVisibility
by reporting every TERF i see on the internet 🤪 does my existence as a proud non-binary person threaten you? go cry about it in internet jail. y’all are way to concerned about other people’s genitalia for it to be normal. seek help.
@an_screen
@elaifresh
ok but in the post he’s questioning my ability to make breakfast and graduate. he knows nothing about me, yet that’s his focus instead of my legitimate point. i wasn’t trying to be rude, i was pointing out that disability is a reason, not that it needs to be justified to anyone
@Badgalcashew
@elaifresh
even if i could make breakfast every day, and even if i couldn’t, it doesn’t negate that disabled people shouldn’t have to justify themselves. mans is out here saying it’s fine if you’re hungover bc the culture of alcoholism is so prevalent but if ur disabled? forget about it.

I would recommend MI Finley as a starting point, the Cambridge World History of Slavery as an overview, and Thomas Weidemann’s “Greek and Roman Slavery” and Keith Bradley’s “Slavery and Society at Rome”

@popelizbet
even Marvel (the comics) is chock full of disabled people. Hawkeye is literally deaf/HoH and the films completely erased that part of his story. Nick Fury is missing an eye. Wanda suffers from psychosis. Dr Strange didn’t fix his disability with his superpowers. etc etc etc
@jcbmfcsby
@ECDenFan
@elaifresh
ok cool i was pointing out an exception just like OP exempted hungover people. didn’t say anything else. thanks for your opinion!
maybe if corps paid their employees more for their labor than they can get off of unemployment they wouldn’t be facing labor shortages. employees deserve to be paid a living and sustainable wage for their labor. employees deserve benefits and a fair wage.
@francisxwolf
it’s telling how i didn’t say every day *anywhere* but y’all seem to think that’s what i meant. so what if disabled people order breakfast once or even twice a week? plenty of able bodied people order out more than that. even on disability, people are allowed to have nice things.
full disclosure, i am not autistic. i have many friends and family members who are, and who are not engaged on twitter. this event directly harms them. please please reconsider supporting autism speaks and next for autism.
@RepKatiePorter
please pressure congress to enact section 4 of the 25th amendment and section 3 of the 14th amendment. the sedition, terrorism, and traitorous behavior we as a nation witnessed yesterday cannot be tolerated.
