Stop Looking At Disabilities Through Ableist Lenses. If You Have Problems With Your Legs Or Feet But

stop looking at disabilities through ableist lenses. if you have problems with your legs or feet but don’t use a wheelchair, you’re still disabled and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. mental illness? disabled. you don’t have to look or behave a certain way in the eyes of others to be disabled. you might not think you’re disabled, but the definition is:

“(of a person) having a physical or mental condition that limits movements, senses, or activities.”

Yes I relate to this so much

Disabled people: We're disabled-

Abled person: You mean...DIFFERENTLY ABLED?

No. No, if we say disabled, we mean disabled. Most of us hate the whole "differently abled" thing. If someone likes or prefers it, that's fine, but don't blanket assume we are or refer to us collectively as such. Disabled is not a dirty word.

Please help them if you can

Guys, I really, really, can’t stress this enough. my posts haven’t been getting any attention and the people JUST turned off our water today so me and my mom are left without any! We’re both disabled and without food too, so this makes it harder for us to get by unless we pay off our WATER BILL. We need almost all the help we can get because for the past few days, we’ve been doing nothing but struggling! 

I don’t know how much we’d need, but PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE! help us out! I hate having to ask for help, but everything has been going nothing but awful for us! we haven’t ate in 4 days and I’m starving too. ANY donation counts at this point as long as it helps!

Mom’s cash.app is/ $GiveMeMoney77004

we don’t use paypal anymore and this is our only way! My dogs need to eat too as they’ve only had water before it was cut off…

This is so important

No, JK Rowling is not just saying "biological sex is real".

She is using debunked pseudoscience to attempt to invalidate the existence and rights of a vulnerable, marginalized group of living, breathing human beings.

She's disgusting. And she knows it, too. If you have the self-awareness to say "People like me are often called TERFs.”, you know you’re shitty. You just don't care.

I don't care how big a fan I was. I cannot in good conscience continue to support her.

I'm done, for good.

Baby rant my bad

(I can’t make my text big anymore and I’m sad)

Ok heres the actual rant. I decided like an absolute idiot yesterday that I felt really good for the first time in a long time and that I wouldn’t use my walking aids. So I put on cute skinny jeans ,which are a big no during flare ups for me, I put on my cute Alice in Wonderland tank and shave for the first time in months and feel hella cute. Fix my hair looking all androgenous and made my non-binary/genderfluid Lesbian heart so happy . I go to my contacts fitting cuz I’m low vision blind as well and its the first time I’ve ever gone in without my aids there and people just seemed to treat me nicer tbh. Then I went home and held my snake and watched TV and it was going great. Now cut to this morning and I woke up in agony and can’t put pressure on my left leg or my left arm and I hate it here.

JK ROWLING IS A TERF

im so mad I don’t know where to begin with her crusade against trans girls and women. To portray some of the most marginalized people as predators when many of them worshiped her and became writers because of her. My friend he became a writer and she turned on him saying trans men are just abused women trying to escape womanhood. She really is projecting the image that trans women are just men in women’s clothing trying to prey on women that she wrote a whole book with a cross dressing serial killer to project these beliefs. I am so TIRED of having to fight so pe give me basic respect and now she’s attacking innocent peopl while doctors and pediatricians beg her to stop spreading this hate that is hurting the children they care for. She’s hurting the children she claims this little crusade of hers is to protec. She puts up that shirt saying ’This witch won’t burn‘ while going on a witch hunt against trans women herself. I’m so disgusted by her actions and how they’re impacting peopl I know and care for.

to my friends in red states, please stay safe and watch out for each other. stay inside and avoid going out if you don’t need to. not to stir up fear in the wake of victory, but there are numerous watchdog organizations warning people — especially black and trans folks — to expect a sharp uptick in violence and tension. the naacp has issued a warning to black people in missouri to STAY INSIDE, STAY TOGETHER, STAY SAFE. check on your friends. stay informed. if you aren’t following them already, check out the naacp website and watchdog organizations to keep an eye on things in your area.

to white folks, this is a time for you to celebrate as well, but things are far from over. reach out to your poc and trans friends, particularly your black and trans friends, and check on them and make sure they feel safe. DO NOT STOP DONATING TO PAYPALS AND GOFUNDMES. CONTINUE SHARING RESOURCES AND INFORMATION. CONTINUE PARTICIPATING IN COMMUNITY AID. electing biden did not simultaneously wipe out the issues many marginalized communities are facing. YOUR PART IN THIS IS NOT OVER BECAUSE THIS FIGHT IS NOT OVER. continue spreading

to succinctly sum up the energy we need to cultivate going forward:

To My Friends In Red States, Please Stay Safe And Watch Out For Each Other. Stay Inside And Avoid Going

you can reblog this. white people can and should reblog this. likes do nothing for us.
