We’re in for another two weeks of struggling, yet we are also never alone in these struggles. I hope that all of you find some respite despite the issues you’re facing, and that you know you are appreciated, loved, and respected here.

As always, we ask that in order to participate in the weekly megathread, one self-identifies as some form of disabled, which is broadly defined in the community sidebar:

“Disability” is an umbrella term which encompasses physical disabilities, emotional/psychiatric disabilities, neurodivergence, intellectual/developmental disabilities, sensory disabilities, invisible disabilities, and more. You do not have to have an official diagnosis to consider yourself disabled.

Mask up, love one another, and stay alive for one more week.

      I am currently living this and I do NOT recommend it. The precarity is like a weight that you can never lift from your shoulders.

      Of course, this is precisely why they want the system to remain the way it is.

      Yes, I think about being in the vanguard of the revolution quite a bit.

        Yea, I know its not practical or anything. Big issue is returning to work I feel. I am just not doing great and contemplate crashing out and trying to bum a room off someone or like making my way to California or something. I’m trans and living at home with parents who wouldn’t be supportive. But I’m trying to just grind it out and get a better job
