Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
Sister Communities:
-
/c/[email protected] - Star Trek chat, memes and shitposts

People die while waiting for social security benefits to be approved, it is a feature and not a bug. Fuck this system that says you can't even have $2k worth of combined assets without losing your benefits. Or that half of your spouse's income is "deemed" to you and cuts into your benefits.
Been applying for 13 years so yep absolutely true
That is fucked, I'm sorry you are fighting this for so long.
Just remember that the only people who can fight the best fight for disability equality right now are people who are not disabled.
