No matter how desperately our politicians try to convince us otherwise, Israel isn't good for us. The new U.S.-Israeli war on Iran, which Americans overwhelmingly do not want, is the latest proof of that. It's time for us to end the relationship.

Long-COVID Sufferer Awarded Nearly $1M After Employer Refused to Let Her Work From Home | Law.com A jury in Nassau County awarded $954,000 to a longtime employee of Stony Brook University Hospital Blood Bank.

A woman with Long Covid won almost one million dollars in a lawsuit against her employer who refused to allow her work from home accommodations.

May this set a precedent.

Remote work should be accessible to all who need it.

It’s a game changer for people with disabilities.

ICE has been holding a disabled double amputee named Rodney Taylor in a camp for a year.

He’s been in the US since he was two years old.

It’s all he knows.

When they detained him, they denied him access to new prosthetic legs.

His health is declining.

Sign the Petition Demand the Release of Rodney Taylor from ICE Detention

ICE has been holding a disabled Black man for a year!

Rodney Taylor is a double amputee who was days away from receiving new prosthetic legs when ICE took him.

He’s been denied his prosthetics & placed in solitary.

His health is declining.

Public outrage might save his life.

Say his name:

From my hometown of Forest Lake: "Ice is working with Forest Lake police. Police are asking apartment complexes for access to buildings for 'possible medical emergencies' shortly after they requested that ice was in my building knocking on doors."

The US has the highest maternal mortality of any developed country … and it’s about to get a lot worse.

Why? Pregnant women are afraid to go to the hospital for care.

They’re labouring at home alone because ICE will grab them as soon as they give birth.

This is dystopian.

Pristine nature’ is an anti-Indigenous oxymoron, so stop using it.

Nature is a messy, interconnected web of kin. The only reason you think you are separate from it is because colonizers invented that separation to extract from you and from the land without remorse.

ICE agents detain Navajo man in Arizona, ignoring US, tribal IDs Peter Yazzie was held for several hours in metro Phoenix, but there are reports of Native people detained in Minnesota and elsewhere.

A citizen of Navajo Nation was detained by ICE in Phoenix. Peter Yazzie was reportedly carrying a tribal ID, but was still violently arrested. An officer put a knee on Yazzie’s back, which can be lethal because it can cut off a person’s breathing. www.azcentral.com/story/news/p...

This wording choice just infuriated me for this reason - ICE has been doing evil shit for 22 years - to say "now become" suggests only certain people matter bsky.app/profile/acyn...

Your reminder that what happened to Renee Nicole Good is something that happens regularly in America. This is not new, but it is an expanded version of militarized people targeting Black people in particular.

From ICE detention to murder with impunity, we've been doing it. Now it's broadened.

Sask. woman considers MAID because she can't get needed surgery for rare disease | CBC News For the past eight years Jolene Van Alstine has suffered from a rare form of parathyroid disease,Β normocalcemic primary hyperparathryroidism (nPHPT). It causes extreme bone pain.

A woman in Saskatchewan needs surgery for a parathyroid issue and is being offered MAiD instead.

There’s no one in the province who can perform the procedure and the government won’t pay to send her elsewhere.

This is why disability advocates warn about assisted dying

I will be the first to admit I couldn’t understand why anyone would oppose Assisted Dying… and then I became disabled and had it β€œoffered” to me.

It’s not compassionate when there’s coercion.

It’s not dignified when it’s offered in lieu of care.

Listen to disabled people.
