I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe. Gopher, Netscape with frames, the first Browser Wars. Searching for pages with AltaVista, pop-up windows self-replicating, trying to uninstall RealPlayer. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.

Disabled people paying their ENTIRE pension plus rent assistance plus NDIS supports, and living and dying in squalor. Disabled people deserve so much better.

The problem here is that often times the support coordinator has access to exactly the same resources you do, especially when it comes to finding a place to live.
Quote Tweet
Colin has described the harrowing eventual boat rescue. Now he's talking about the immediate recovery period. It took him a week to get in touch with his #NDIS support coordinator, but she didn't have anything helpful for him.

“I want a home, not just a house. Not four walls and a roof over my head but a real home, somewhere no-one can take away from me because I'm too old or not disabled enough, because I'm struggling to afford my rent.” – Witness Claudia* #DisabilityRC

When heritage is used as an excuse to prevent the development of low cost housing, used to gatekeep the demographic makeup of an area and so on. Then yes people are going to arc up.
