disabled people!!!
what are some illnesses/disabilities that youve never seen representation for and would love to see?
let me know in replies reblogs asks messages whatever suits you :3
Taking care of the disabled and injured is human nature actually. We have evidence of our ancestors caring for folks with disabilities. We're a cooperative species that takes care of their own. If our starving, weary, and hunted ancestors could care for the disabled members of their tribe, in this era of modern medicine and abundant resources we absolutely can afford to do the same.
exactly ππ its always like βaw im so sorry i get it ive been through the sameβ and then ur like ah shit not another one.. :((
it hurts hearing other disabled people talk about medical mistreatment.
like i am partly grateful to not be alone of course, but i really wish it wasnt a common or even standard occurrence.
breaks my heart.
i am constantly worried that my unpredictable health will lose me all my friends. you might say thats irrational, but it has already happened to me twice.
i have been called flakey, unreliable, a downer and probably more i havent heard. and i cant help but wonder, if the world around me was accessible, would i be any of those things?
the lengths i go to for relationships never feels flaky or unreliable to me. but maybe to other people it doesnt matter why i cant show up sometimes. maybe all that matters to them is a yes or no are they here with no context.
try be accessible and lenient with your disabled friends please..
YES THANK YOU
tecna lacks so much appreciation she is a QUEEN.
the thing about characters like tecna is that people will often think they are strictly one-dimensional and lack nuance. that they only breathe complex facts and figures. that they are only funny when they are not trying to be funny. but tecna turns that notion on its head by being so emotional and so accepting of her emotional landscape once she reconciles her inner conflicts, and at times, by not being very rational. while tecna can be awkward at times and miss a social cue or two, she can also be intentionally hilarious and sharp through her spirited and bold remarks; do not forget the way she sassed riven in the minotaur episode or the way she cleverly had the last word with the beta girls. point is, please do not pigeonhole tecna into a predefined box or a particular stereotype. she deserves so much more than that.
maddening that the media refuses to call nazi salutes what they are. HOW ARE WE HERE RIGHT NOW. fucks sake.
im seeing sooo much misdirected anger and blame in all kinds of communities and im just rahhh its so sad and frustrating because i just want to scream that theyre angry at the wrong people
getting the cancer response is particularly funny for me.
i had cancer. thats what made me chronically ill.
telling people that seems to blow their minds.
theyre like no but cancer is the worst and you dont have that now but you had it before so youve had both cancer and being chronically ill but like cancer is worse and-
they dont know what to do with that. they tried to make a smart comment and it failed miserably. its funny to me. (i have to laugh or ill cry)
Telling a chronically ill person "at least its not cancer"
Or someone who's disabled due to a tragic accident "it could've been worse it could've disabled you more"
Or anything along the lines of "you could be dead or more disabled be greatful" I hope you rot in a hole where everyone you ever loved forgets you ever existed and you have to sit with that like in coco where you disappear when you're forgotten because that is so insanely rude and even more disgusting and if you don't know how to talk about disabilities without trying to "look on the bright side" or try and cheer people up about it maybe you shouldn't talk about them because some disabilities just are and they're always going to be and there's nothing anyone can do about it
And if someone is dying from their condition but its taking years instead of being fast like tv and stuff portrays it pls for the love of God don't tell them they "aren't dying fast enough" or "weren't you dying last year"
This post is specifically in reference to all the horrible comments able bodied people leave on disabled ppls social media's where the person shares their experiences
i really cannot understand how people see disabled life as this glamorised lazy life. i genuinely cannot wrap my head around this.
how could ANY of what i go through be seen that way i just dont get it.
reminder that productivity doesnt equal worth because i am forgetting this at the moment
IS THAT AN EXPENSIVE SOUND ππππ
Just random stuff I find annoying
