‘Blocking traffic/public disruptions aren’t going to help your cause’ if that is so, why have there been larger and more numerous pro Palestine protests than ever before? Why is public knowledge on Palestinian oppression more prevalent now? Why do a majority of countries in the world call for a ceasefire? Why do a majority of the countries in the world call for Palestine’s recognition? And why is it that people who complain about disruptions not helping our cause have never supported us in the first place? I wonder.

When I say "my ADHD wouldn't be a disability if society was structured differently," I don't mean that my physical brain structure/chemistry would somehow change the moment capitalism went away. I mean we as a society could choose to accommodate it to the level we accommodated nearsightedness to the point where most people don't think of it as a disability anymore.
To use this metaphor, imagine if in order to access help for your nearsightedness, you had to endure years of people not believing you're nearsighted because they don't believe anybody is near sighted, and you are just faking it for attention and the privilege of always sitting up front. And if you do manage to get help, you have to go to the eye doctor every 30 days for new glasses because they're not allowed to give you a prescription for longer than that. And the government is creating an artificial scarcity of glasses because they think too many people are lying about needing glasses. And when you try to push through and you make a bunch of mistakes because you can't see, it's all your fault. And because you can sorta see when you squint your eyes really hard, you're expected to do that all the time while keeping up with everybody who can just see well.
Disability is not just about what's going on in your brain and body, it's about societal response to it. Do we believe it even exists as a problem? Do we moralize having the problem? Do we have the ability to accommodate it? Do we follow through on those accommodations without complaint? Or do we throw up further obstacles? This is so much of what separates divergence from disability.

Scientists at Norway’s University of Bergen tracked 6,000 people, with an average age of 34 at the time of enrollment in the study, who used the cleaning products over a period of two decades.
According to the study, women who used the cleaning products regularly had a markedly decreased lung capacity.
They also found increased rates of asthma among women who used the products regularly.
The products seemed to affect the lung capacity of women who took part in the study more than men, though the scientists noted the number of male participants was small compared with the number of female participants.
“When you think of inhaling small particles from cleaning agents that are meant for cleaning the floor and not your lungs, maybe it is not so surprising after all,” said lead study author Øistein Svanes, a doctoral student.
They found that lung function decline in women who regularly used the products, such as those who worked as cleaners, was equivalent over the period to those with a 20-cigarette daily smoking habit.
The results follow a study by French scientists in September 2017 that found nurses who used disinfectants to clean surfaces at least once a week had a 24 percent to 32 percent increased risk of developing lung disease.
