Will 🏳️‍🌈<p>Yesterday ended up being a very rough day here. I had my first depressive state in many years. Thankfully, I think I've ridden through it now.</p><p>Related to my MCI with significant short term memory impairment, I'm finding that I forget to close/lock doors nearly every day, and have also been forgetting to turn off appliances.</p><p>In addition, I realized that I'm making rather bad/impulsive/rash decisions frequently for a while now, especially of a financial nature. As such, I've reached out to my GP/PCP for a case manager referral, which I hope can help out.</p><p>My friend that recently visited, who is the only person I let call me several times a day, was in continual judgment of me and my decisions. I had to end the call quickly.</p><p>I had a disappointment that it turns out that assisted living communities in my area need you to be 55 or older, and I've still got a half year left to go. I had hopes this was an answer.</p><p>Needless to say, this is all rather scary, especially living on my own.</p><p>Is any of this relatable? I hope this is not a unique experience to me.</p><p><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Depression" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Depression</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/MildCognitiveImpairment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MildCognitiveImpairment</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/ShortTermMemoryLoss" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ShortTermMemoryLoss</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/AssistedLiving" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AssistedLiving</span></a></p>

AnarchoNinaAnalyzes<p>One of the most horrifying things about the fascist Trump regime that nonetheless remains slightly below the mainstream radar, is the objectively eugenicist undercurrent that runs through most of the government's public health and spending decisions. This ablest ideological plank built around the idea that Americans who can't work, are not valid members of our society, and active leeches on limited public resources, most recently burst into view during RFK Jr's dehumanizing rants about autism and autistic Americans, as well as ongoing GOP attempts to defend the homicidal class war budget reconciliation bill they're trying to ram through the Senate. These openly eugenicist declarations are always hidden behind a commitment to protect society's "most vulnerable people" but the proof is in the policy pudding, and everything about the Trumpenreich agenda seems to either ignore the existence of, or actively harm, anyone who cannot work even through no fault of their own - including aging and disabled Americans in the labor class.</p><p>Now, a recent report on the regime's proposed budget for the upcoming fiscal year makes it clear that this targeted neglect and rampant ableism is woven directly into government policy. The Trumpenreich plans to defund "the Administration for Community Living (ACL) and related grant programs" in a heartless decision that seems likely to harm up to "one in five older Americans" and over 17 million disabled Americans who depend on ACL programs to lead fuller, happier, non-institutionalized lives.</p><p><a href="https://truthout.org/articles/trumps-budget-would-limit-investigations-into-abuse-neglect-of-disabled-people/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">truthout.org/articles/trumps-b</span><span class="invisible">udget-would-limit-investigations-into-abuse-neglect-of-disabled-people/</span></a></p><p>Trump’s Budget Would Limit Investigations Into Abuse, Neglect of Disabled People</p><p>"If these programs are not funded, experts warn that an increasing number of disabled and aging Americans could be institutionalized with little oversight to ensure their rights are protected against abuse and neglect. The National Disability Rights Network (NDRN) called the plan to eliminate the programs “a direct and deliberate attack on people with disabilities, their families, and the systems that protect their rights, health, and independence.”</p><p>Alison Barkoff, who served as ACL’s acting administrator and assistant secretary for aging during the Biden administration, is now director of George Washington University’s health law and policy program. “The dismantling of ACL combined with the elimination of programs and these big Medicaid cuts are literally going to roll back decades of progress,” Barkoff told Truthout. “In terms of people with disabilities, the default [could become] people in institutions that are very unsafe with huge rights violations.”</p><p>There are two stories going on here simultaneously, and both of them are horrible fascist atrocities. In a pure material sense, the Trump regime plans to force your grandparents and millions of people with disabilities off of effective and vital assisted living programs that allow our loved ones to remain cherished parts of our communities, so they can give billionaire nazi broligarchs more cash to buy everything that isn't tied down in our society. The end result of these budget decisions will be more Americans who, and I cannot stress this enough, are capable of living happy, healthy, and cherished lives in our homes and communities, being warehoused in often abusive, dehumanizing institutional settings with little government oversight to prevent atrocities against our friends, families, and other loved ones. That isn't an ideological position, that's just the bottom line and it fits in perfectly with a larger pattern of disdain and neglect towards poor and marginalized people displayed by Trump, his administration, and the wealthy donors who own them; after all, rich ppl can afford the care necessary to keep their family members out of institutional settings, right?</p><p>As the article goes on to note however, this horrifying decision to purposely rewind time to a darker era of American disability rights and standards of care, isn't entirely financial in its motivations. Indeed, whatever savings the government is hoping to accomplish here are purely paper artifacts because public institutionalization of elderly and disabled Americans is going to cost the state a lot more money in the long run. No, the bald truth here is that this decision is rooted deeply in the Pork Reich's open disdain for the American people, and ideological belief that the labor class in this country is nothing more than a commodity; useful at times in terms of economic inputs, but an active blight on society to be eliminated once we can no longer serve our purpose of extracting wealth for the ruling classes. The billionaire nazis running this global far right political project are planning for a world with far less humans, and the puppets they own, including the Trump regime, are helping sort out who gets to survive to see the brave new world they envision.</p><p><a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Eugenics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Eugenics</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Budget" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Budget</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Ableism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Ableism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/GOP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GOP</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/DisabilityRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DisabilityRights</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/AssistedLiving" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AssistedLiving</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/ClassWar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ClassWar</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Seniors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Seniors</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Autism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Autism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/RFKJr" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RFKJr</span></a></p>
