Anti-fatness in healthcare
@bright_helpings wait, bring it from home? as in she herself works in a building where she herself can’t get her BP taken??
@mythologybot this does not seem like a healthy emotional response
@Betty i suspect i was not supposed to get “—“ for my first four translations 😂 (I got actual words after that, just bad RNG luck i assume)

@celli i feel you 🫂 i ended up just logging off yesterday in favor of distracting switch games but that one only works for so long

@xieliansbignaturals neither are straightforward how-to’s alas, but:
SURJ’s disability resource page might be helpful in tracking down resources on the subject (as well as having a decent list of orgs people might want to involve themselves in): https://surj.org/resources/disability-and-access/
and Christy Tending wrote a great piece about their own experiences with disability and activism: https://longreads.com/2023/02/02/things-that-able-me-christy-tending/

@bright_helpings @DrSuzanne so much of the stigma around disability is already “why havent you just gone to the right doctor to Fix This” that saying glasses are the same thing feels like it’d only make the situation worse tbh
@Betty horse name
@Rozzychan i clicked through to the paper and letters are indeed missing on my copy also! though i cannot say if they are the same ones 😅 what an odd mystery
@Forestofglory yeah i don’t realize how much i depend on stuff like body language/affect and hairstyles until its not an option 😂
@brie that looks so good!
@Betty i always feel like an asshole city person when this question comes up because everyone i know irl is either great at parallel parking or just doesn’t own a car so i’m like “you mean, they don’t know how to drive?”
