Ableist Tenancy Risk

In this episode I talk about today's suite inspection, the unrealistic ableist expectations and timelines (plus assumptions of supports that don't exist within the system and definitely not for my disease; myalgic encephalomyelitis) that have been put on me by my landlords and the fire inspector. Also, with the best of intentions I know, but still ableist interactions with an official who came to support me today, plus some good things! (Yes Halloween related hence the picture) But ultimately I need more time to fight to stay alive but also to fight for supports for people like me, so here once again is the link to the Ricochet article https://ricochet.media/en/3991/Canada-MAID-policy-death-by-poverty and the gfm https://gofund.me/cff39173
