Ok, now that I've had a lil wee rant about it all, as per: https://disabled.social/@vlrny/116591893236335923 Let's talk pragmatics. #spoonie and other marginalized friends, drop suggestions below of what you wish your neighbourhood or community would do for you. The rest of ya'll take some notes and brain storm what you can do in YOUR hood. #community #disabilityJustice #teamApocalypse #neighbouring

@vlrny@disabled.social i would love for someone to clean and chop up/prep fresh fruits and vegetables and greens and put them in my fridge so i can just throw things in a blender and drink it. i haven’t been able to eat solids for years and no longer have the energy to do the work to prep the produce (or run and clean the blender 😭 even) so my nutrition is suffering and im adding onto unsustainable debt buying premade baby foods or other liquid foods.

☝️as I am sitting here in a heat wave with the roar of the ac in my ear, I am reminded of a significant gap right here: There are no cooling centres I can escape to where I can rest and lie down. If you're an org with central air, during heat events, host some pillow nest movie afternoons where we can get out of the house but still lie down.

Oooo you know what else I would love? Meditation in the park, heck even a skywatchers club where we all get together in a park and watch the sky. Why don't you start one in your hood? Pick a time, put up some posters. A lot of this stuff just needs a spark of initiative. Someone to step up and turn idea into action. That person could be you. It may be out of your comfort zone, until you do it. Then you are just one of those people who makes cool community shit happen. #beTheChange
