jesus fucking christ. i am both immunocompromised and mentally ill. until you know deeply both realities and their financial repercussions, don’t speak from this inflated authority. https://twitter.com/cyreejarelle/status/1331061896582148098

i fit a socioeconomic demographic where i have no choice but to work. i am high risk as i am severely asthmatic. however that didn’t stop my government from telling me i have to perform labor at extreme risk to keep a roof over my fucking head.

so, if i choose to be tested regularly, especially before i take a trip, funded by the wages i earn at the risk of my literal life, and go out to eat or take a socially distanced camping trip with my bf who is also in the restaurant industry, mind your goddamn business.

and that’s not even touching on my mental illness! because after 23 years of living in this chronically depressed and suicidal body, i know any excuse isn’t enough for you ableist fucks. i won’t even defend myself on this front bc it’s useless.

oh and also! i have people very dear and near to my heart who are also stuck in this capitalist hell hole. if me wearing my mask and freshly negatively tested going out to eat and leaving them a fat cash tip helps their rent struggle or feed their babies, i’m good.

and to add merit to my immunocompromised statement: i was born with undeveloped lungs, have severe asthma, and almost died when i was 10 years old from swine flu.

statements like these are why people hate democrats and liberals. y’all take no consideration for the people stuck in the nasty teeth of capitalism and survival and make blanket statements of judgment.

if any of my followers are open or compelled to discussion from what i’ve said, i respectfully welcome it. end of thread.
