Last week Trump called Tim Walz the ‘R slur’.

He then doubled down on it, and now his base have begun harassing the entire Walz family.

Memes are circulating on socials encouraging people to drive past their house and yell it at them.

I’ve been personally called that word more than 1,000 times in the last seven days.

We can’t allow this to happen. The disability community has fought far too hard for far too long to remove that word from the public vernacular.

This is ableism at it’s most ugly, and ableism feeds eugenics and eugenics feeds fascism.

Help us fight back. We are not expendable.

The R Slur Must Never be Normalized

Last week Trump called Walz the 'R slur', and now his base is using it regularly. We must all speak out against this. It's a term that pushes a eugenicist agenda and feeds directly into fascism.

Adamie, widziałam zwierzęta pełne Twoich imion,
połykały je i tonęły, upadały na czerwoną ziemię,
kiedy mówiłeś, potem jedliśmy ich mięso,

przytulałeś mnie (myślałam o nich),
czas się wymykał między naszymi ciałami
i znikał w pyle. Kości schły w ognisku.

Jesteś ode mnie silniejszy. Dzięki temu
nikt mnie nie zjadł, nic
mnie nie zjadło. byłabym mięso.

Jak było przedtem?
Coś się stanie, jak sobie nie przypomnę.
Coś złego.

In a world full of people who no longer trust each other, sometimes a small thing happens that just makes everything better.

A week or so ago I asked for German sci-fi books for my middle kid, who is struggling with his German grammar.

He's dyslexic and loves reading *my scifi books* in English, to the detriment of his German.

I asked on the internet, and I got a lot of fantastic advice, including from @lk108 who replied and said he had a whole series, and offered to send them.

So he did, and I happily paid for the postage as soon as he said he'd sent them.

The box arrived today! I had no doubt that they would, a random person who I did not know at all, said they would do something really nice, and I was sure it would be so.

Anyway thanks @lk108 for the lovely offer, and I'm sure Theo will be delighted.

Please give this post a round of boosts because a nice thing happened and we don't hear enough about that.
