    Eh. Lots f people are house-bound enough that while they technically can go out sometimes, doing so is extremely unpleasant and often painful. Delivery services really are very, very helpful for folks with disabilities. As in, during the worst parts of the two years I was too depressed to function there were long periods of time where the only hot food I got was delivery bc I couldn’t think well enough to cook anything.

    Plus, being disabled is terrifying. The services you rely on could disapear or be taken away at any time by the whim of the state or a corporation. People justifiably get very frightened and angry when the systems they use to get by are threatened, even if that threat is just shit talk on the internet.
