In an effort to expand beyond my comfort zone of Instagram, I posted an article on LinkedIn discussing the barriers that make it impossible or even dangerous for some disabled people to work. https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/why-some-disabled-people-cant-work-the-20-something-spoonie/?trackingId=mXD7rlaA4PgQjLXL%2B8HM9A%3D%3D

Why Some Disabled People Can't Work

You probably remember when Kim Kardashian shared this "advice" for women in business: "Get your fucking ass up and work. It seems like nobody wants to work these days.

Thank you so much for writing articles about this issue. I saw or got countless advice about people struggling in mental illness should try their best to work so that they could keep connections with society or not getting worse. However, in fact, these advice didn’t really understand the complexity & difficulties underlies. Thank you again for your post.

@the20somethingspoonie Thank you for this! I wish more non-disabled people understood how varied disability can be - not just from person to person, but from day to day for the same person

@the20somethingspoonie @chronicillness @disability I love that this was posted on LinkedIn, where the argument that “you shouldn’t need to work to be valuable” is genuinely subversive and radical
