Former Miss San Antonio asks people to #ShowYourLips during COVID-19
So last night, I had this horrible confrontation where of course they kept changing the rules, so I don't understand what's happening, and it's not on the website. I'm sorry, but I'm deaf, what are you even saying? And I'm I'm deaf, you have to lower this for a short time and explain the rule, because it's not written, its not shown. They're being left and left in their own filth and left in clothes that have not been changed, have not been fed. So I can make an argument it's worse for people with disabilities right now.
