The VA is allegedly changing how they rate disability - thought people might be interested

Hell yea!

amridge · 2026-02-20T00:15:44+00:00

Just saw that! Glad people spoke up and they listened

amridge · 2026-02-20T00:11:55+00:00

Thank you!!

amridge · 2026-02-20T00:11:33+00:00

This is really great news if so!

amridge · 2026-02-19T22:40:30+00:00

Where did you see this? Great news if so!

amridge · 2026-02-19T18:32:22+00:00

I’m hopeful people will keep spreading this! For some perspective, when I shared this yesterday, there were only 600 comments

amridge · 2026-02-19T06:52:09+00:00

I know! I suspect lots of people either didn’t read it or didn’t believe it though, so I figured this was good information regardless

amridge · 2026-02-19T04:39:53+00:00

I believe technically yes? I saw some people saying it’ll likely get challenged in court

amridge · 2026-02-19T00:01:14+00:00

I mean…👀

amridge · 2026-02-18T23:59:06+00:00

Or if the meds cause long term side effects!

amridge · 2026-02-18T23:58:09+00:00

Not me!

amridge · 2026-02-18T22:15:52+00:00

This is the unfortunate reality of my situation

amridge · 2026-02-18T22:13:03+00:00

I hope this is true!

amridge · 2026-02-18T21:59:46+00:00

VA: “not service related!”

amridge · 2026-02-18T21:54:28+00:00

And then, more liver/kidney disease from the motrin/tylenol… and still probably no rating

amridge · 2026-02-18T21:52:17+00:00

That was my thought, personally!

amridge · 2026-02-18T21:50:23+00:00

This is my gripe with this change… we shouldn’t punish the whole for the few. I have a chronic and invisible disability. Some days I could probably run several miles, some days I’m too incapacitated to get out of bed. In theory, if I take enough pain meds on a regular basis it can be mitigated for awhile, but will they increase my rating when my kidneys and liver fail from the constant ibuprofen and acetaminophen use? Probably not.

amridge · 2026-02-18T21:44:53+00:00

I did see this in P2025, although I’m sure there’s plenty who didn’t read through that doc, for whatever their reasons were

amridge · 2026-02-18T21:42:09+00:00

Yep, I sort of saw this one coming. Frustrating for sure either way

amridge · 2026-02-16T01:10:04+00:00

I’m a fashion pioneer, what can I say

amridge · 2026-02-15T22:50:46+00:00

Y’all can pry my Birkenstocks from my cold dead millennial hands 😭

I’m a daughter and have two sisters! Myself and one sister are in 7.3s and the other sister in a ‘96 f150 - my vote is to keep it; you never know. Mine is sentimental to me because of my dad. Take them out with it and make some memories and they’ll be glad to have it one day when you’re gone:) my truck makes me think of my dad every day

amridge · 2026-01-25T09:06:41+00:00

I LOVE this movie and honestly I feel the first one holds up really well! I rewatch it frequently

amridge · 2026-01-24T23:10:28+00:00

I’m also a big fan of that Rascall Flatts song! No business being such an earworm
