Gaza has a population of over 2 million people, half of them children. Rep Randy is fine with the prospect of killing a million children. because of the deaths of two people

Yeah I really can't see how they could bring him back in a way that seems plausible. Really enjoyed Carrey's performance though

It can even be dangerous for some people to be in a standing position for too long. I have a severe case of POTS caused by a genetic disorder. My heart stopped during a tilt table test, which is where I was forced to remain in a standing position. If I'm expected to pay more for a normal seat just because I'm disabled, that's ableism.

Why should I have to be forced to pay more for sitting seats just because I have a disability? What if all the sitting seats are fully booked or the plane has no sitting seats for passengers? It's like intentionally designing a shop with several tall steps at the entrance that would make it impossible for wheelchair users to enter, and the wheelchair users have to pay each time they shop there to have a ramp extended at the entrance so they can enter. It's an example of ablest design.

What about people like myself who have POTS and can't be in a standing position for too long? My heart can legit stop causing me to pass out if I'm standing for too long.
