Your reminder that here in Australia, disabled people who cannot work and are on benefits are not able to legally marry or have a de-facto relationship without their partner/spouse's income being used to determine whether or not the disabled person is entitled to keep their benefits. So often, a disabled person's benefit is cut drastically, and sometimes completely, leaving them completely dependent on their spouse/live-in partner, and stripping them of what little independence they may have left. "Equal rights for all" isn't true until a disabled person who is unable to work retains autonomy, and is not stripped of benefits if they choose to enter a legal marriage or defacto relationship. #disability #disabledlife #equalrights #disabledrights

URGENT⭐ Fedi friends, I hate to have to do this, but I am stuck. As many of you know I'm a disabled trans man currently dealing with stent issues due to kidney stones and other issues. I currently require adult diapers as a result, and while I was stocked up until after my next operation, the kidney infection I have recently been diagnosed with on top has meant I have gone through my stock of diapers in a hurry😅 I can't do without them, but can't afford more. I have done calculations and will need four packs @ $28.68 to get me through until next surgery and through recovery(cheapest I can find that will actually do the job). I'm so sorry to ask but if anyone could help me meet my goal of $114.72 to get the diapers(free next day delivery), I'd be really grateful, as I'm under the poverty line and just don't have the ability. I'm already in a lot of physical pain with the stent, kidney issues and regular disability-I'd really like to avoid the humiliation of pissing myself without diapers if possible😅 Thank you in advance♥️ #help #disabled #trans #chronicillness #lgbtqia #povertyawareness #disabilitycrowdfund #boostforhelp #incontinence #disabledlife #grateful #gratitide #hope #communitycare #fedi #fedifriends #loveinaction @queer #bisexual #spiritual #pqgan #animallover #creative #DisabledCommunity #TransCommunity #helpplease #assistance #urgent #optimist #boost #boosts #fatigue #brainfog #exhausted #thankyou #appreciation @AnthonyJK @mutualaid@ovo.st @mutualaid@fedigroups.social @mutualaid@kolektiva.social @shareish #catlover #cats #dogs #whimsy #toot #lookforthejoys #thingstobethankfulfor
