Of course, shopping around, in person, defeats the purpose of doing one single online order from one shop and delivered all at once, saving me going out to do get these things. *sigh* #DisabilityTax
It's an inevitable consequence of the #disabilitytax, which #Motability are absorbing.

Graphic in shades of green. Text in a bubble says "Tax season starts" - the bubble is attached to an illustration of calendar that says "February 23rd." A calculator is also attached to the calendar.

Yes, I know about that shoe. That one, too. No, 4E isn’t wide enough. I’ve tried them all and have paid the #disabilitytax to do so. Yeah, that wide toe box? Not wide enough. That Velcro strap? Not long enough. No stretch? Forget about it. The sole isn’t flat? 🙃 Need to accommodate swelling? FU.

Hey #disabled fam -- especially #blind and low vision folks.
The Zon sells Braille keyboards for $300, because #disabilitytax sigh.
But mechanical keyboards with replaceable key caps sell for about $50ish, and friends told me about 3D printable Braille keycaps www.thingiverse.com/search?q=bra...
Greed. And RealPage needs to be nationally banned for use by landlords, devs & prop mgrs. Open rents shouldn't fluctuate daily or be avg'd against entire nation, only regionally. Sick of this crap! It's also a disadvantage for the disabled as we can't usually opt for older buildings. #DisabilityTax
Another bit of #DisabilityTax: having to own too many textiles because "doing laundry" is occasionally impossible for random bullshit nonsense.
Wij zijn ons aan het oriënteren op een #racetandem, dan kunnen we vast gaan sparen 😱

Anyway, I'd planned on heating up our leftover pasta aglio e olio from last night w/ a little cream, smoked salmon, basil & a tomato from our garden...
We'll see if my right arm is able to do that in a few hours. I may be ordering takeout instead. 😂

I'm only posting this because NC headphones are life-giving gear for us and they're $$$. At least you'll be supporting Autastic if you shop #PrimeDay. Sigh. #DisabilityTax #Autistic #Autism #AuDHD

The cost is $15 USD, which is less than my other workshops, because I want to make sure this is available to folks paying the #DisabilityTax. After registration, you will get a Zoom link and it should offer you a way to add the event directly to your calendar.

Wheelchair in for a service. The quote they've given me for the needed work is an amount of money that would buy a brand new active wheelchair 🙃
Acutely aware that I'm VERY fortunate to be able to afford it at all. But wow, I was not expecting it to cost SO much 😳
TODAY IS DEADLINE FOR LATE RENT BEFORE EVICTION PAPERS FILED🚨
Any amount deeply appreciated❣️
Trying to get an extension⏰

Had a choice today of rushing to catch the bus and hoping my gut lasts the 45-60 minutes home, or paying for an Uber I can't really afford and getting home in like 10m.

Just another advertisement for more price gouging at the expense of those who are most financially impacted. Zero reason, except greed, that these should cost the same as a used car. #DisabilityTax
Essentially, #DisabilityTax. Our lives are so much more expensive than our healthy counterparts. #Pricegouging exists for the disabled every day and no one bats an eye but if it happened to #ableists, there'd be an uproar bigger than ours.
Beginning to learn that there's a #disabilitytax similar to #weddingtax and #womentax. And that not all disability provisions are the same ie access
I suppose I can thank fortune for educating me.
I was born disabled. I have no insurance & pay everything out of pocket, no benefits, I w@h.
I'm on 5 meds, 4 supplements. Because of one disorder, I can't use generics either. 🤬😡 I already pay a lot more as a 👩🏻🦼 person for my wellbeing (dubbed #disabilitytax) - I can't take much more.
#DisabilityTax: Where products for the disabled are 2 to 5 ✖️ more💲 than they should be or to their #ableist counterparts.
Ableists, don't believe me? Search Amazon. Products for a stroller are cheap. Their replica for a wheelchair is jacked up.
Also, a👩🏻🦼shouldnt💲 🟰/➕ a 🚗

I call it #DisabilityTax (like #pinktax but for disabled). We are price gouged at every step. I also don't have insurance so everything is out of pocket. 😤
Contact the con, often times they have machines on standby for its attendees. You can also usually rent one from a rental shop.
Indeed. This goes for any disease/disability or serious illness. Even with the best of treatment disability is likely to remain…it cannot be wished away at the stroke of a policy pen. #disabilityrebellion #disabilitytax on the cards - not #welfarereform
I think we should start calling #Labour 's disability benefit cut what it really is, a #DisabilityTax

I’m about to get an Uber because very close to where I live powerlines are down… I also had an exceptionally long day yesterday. Mixture of being up early getting VERY cold and WET triggered #Dysautonomia meaning by the time it was sleepy time my body was like ADRENALINE!
#DisabilityTax
a fully-funded NHS would prescribe these headphones to autists for free, just saying #disabilitytax
