What Song Would Be Playing On My Pride Float?

My heart hurts so to distract myself Imma tell you why vision tests are stupid.

Ok so I recently got my learners permit so I had to take a vision test but that one wasn’t bad. But it made me think about how much bullshit vision tests are.

When you take a vision test and they have you do your eyes separately but you have to read the same line?

Idk about other people but I already memorized what the line says because the doctor always makes me read with my dominant eye first, so I know what the line says even if I can’t see it clearly?!?

And I tried to convey this to my doctor and she was like well then you can read it, which no?!?

So now I have a lighter prescription than I used to and I can’t see well for shit.

So recently I’ve bee considering applying for a balance and mobility support/service dog, but I want a bit more information from people who actually have them and aren’t paid to give a good review

(It’s also alarmingly difficult to find organizations that train balance and mobility service dogs)

I understand the financial drain and the time you need to put in to make the team function properly. I understand that a service dog is considered a medical device and not a pet, but they still need love and support and breaks like all loving things should. I understand that given my allergies a poodle would be the best option but I could also push for a less common breed.

Does anyone have an info, tips or blogs to recommend?

I really want to be independent once I move out and I really think a balance and mobility support dog would be helpful.

Am i gaslighting myself?

Early this year i was told by a doctor that i have developed a shellfish allergy, after having a few bad reactions randomly, and have since stopped eating all forms of shellfish. I used to be able to eat shellfish perfectly fine and the development of the allergy was really out of nowhere.

I wouldn’t eat any shellfish but i would feel really bad because my family now has to stop making shellfish dishes which we used to have a lot and is even more inconvenient given my other food allergies.

I would tell myself that it’s probably nothing and that i was just being over dramatic and it was probably just paranoia.

But then a couple days ago i had a really bad reaction from a shellfish cross contamination, which should prove that it’s completely real and that I’m not overreacting right? But it’s still... not that easy.

I still feel bad about having these dietary restrictions that affect the people around me and wish i could just suck it up.

Who’s on my pride float!

If I could have anybody on my pride float for asexuality/aromantism, I would choose Yasmin Benoit and Cavetown.

I don’t know a lot about actually pride parades because I’m not allowed to go to them so I don’t know if my choices make sense but yeah!

Because I have no motivation to write the next chapter right now but am hella stressed, I present....

If you have any questions about them, feel free to ask!

Hot take but canes are not a limited resource. Most mobility aids aren’t but canes especially. Canes are $20 at a lot of stores like CVS, Walmart, etc. You aren’t taking that resource away from “real” disabled people (hint: you ARE a real disabled person) in fact buying more canes creates more demand and works to make more stores carry them for better prices. You aren’t faking being disabled or hurting disabled people, you’re working to make canes more accessible which is helping disabled people.

Get the cane.

❗VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION ❗

Hello, my fellow fanwork creators. Sorry to interrupt, but there's an important information you all should pay attention to.

In short, everyone who is eligible to vote for the election of OTW (they run AO3 and Fanlore), should vote against the candidate Tiffany G. If you have donated over 10$ to AO3 in the past year, you are eligible to vote for yourself, and for us, for every Archive of Our Own user, especially the creators in China. This is a very serious question.

In Tiffany's statement, they want to build a more strict censorship policy in AO3. They also talked about limiting the adult content so this website would "have a better image to public". And they said China banned AO3 because of "pedophilic content" but as a Chinese myself, we all know it's just because my country prohibits any sex-related website. So basically, if this Tiffany succeed to get a seat of OTW, AO3 will face more strict censorship, limited adult content, and for we, for Chinese users, the result would be more catastrophic.

Tiffany G also mentioned that they work in a governmental organisation in China. Just consider why a pro-censorship, fandom newbie(Tiffany said it themself), and government staff wants to run for the election of an organisation that is holistically against their agenda. In my personal worst imagination, once they got the seat, they will immediately pack all the information of Chinese users in AO3 and report them to the Government. The consequence will be horrible.

Please, vote for yourself, for us, and for the future of our favourite fanwork site. If you are not an eligible voter and you wanna do something, please let more people receive this information. Thank you.

Song that reminds me of pride?

ron’s gone wrong was AMAZING, holy crap. why isn’t anyone else talking about this movie? i’ve only found like, 3 fanarts?? and all the stuff in the tag is just news?

this movie is already underrated imo, and it’s RT score deserves to be WAY higher. it’s so funny, it’s emotional, the animation is spectacular. can’t believe this is only locksmith’s first movie!!! i think any movie with the voice of jack dylan grazer is gonna have me laughing like a hyena.

i think it coming out the same year as the mitchells vs. the machines hurt it tbh, and it never really had any huge expensive PR campaigns and/or drama.

but GOD this movie deserves all the buzz. go see it.
