The mayor’s office says it would be the first major U.S. city to enact such a plan.

    I literally screamed in pain every 20 minutes. I have trigeminal neuralgia, the suicide disease. It’s called that because most people kill themselves rather than handle it. I’m sure a call center job would have worked really well if I screamed at the customer. Thankfully, that has been solved and I’m only in severe pain all the time now instead of severe to agonizing every 20 minutes. You have no idea what I go through. You are being fucking offensive.

      Or the normal name, fothergill’s disease. Very painful indeed, ay but maybe starting out with that would’ve been better than claiming semi-disabled, because that’s a bullshit term. You have Fothergill disease, you’re disabled.

      You misunderstand, I simply don’t care what you go through, and I don’t care about offending you in the slightest. We’re on the internet, we’re nothing to eachother and will likely never interact again after this. Sure, it sucks for you, but it has exactly 0 impact on my life.

        No one calls it Fothergill’s disease. Not a single medical professional has ever said that to me. That’s not a “normal name” that I have heard anyone use in any context outside people like you who find it on internet searches.

        And no, when I said semi-disabled, I meant it. I am able to work and receive disability to make up for the lost time when I can’t.
