For me, the problem with tone indicators is not that they're confusing and impossible to google and already mean completely different things. There's tons of Gen Z slang that's impenetrable and strange to me, and people using slang I don't get doesn't upset me, I just shrug and move on.

The problem with tone indicators is that they aren't being presented as slang, but as an accesibility aid. It's hard to just shrug and move on when someone is calling me ableist for having trouble picking up new slang.

i know we're all sick of self-care being a marketing tactic now, but i don't think a lot of us have any other concept of self-care beyond what companies have tried to sell us, so i thought i'd share my favorite self-care hand out

brought to you by how mad i just got at a Target ad

god im so sick or the “just be grateful for what you have” type of ableism.

why can’t i want more? why don’t you think i deserve better than what little i have? what do disabled people have to do to “earn” what we should have as a default?

im so tired of having to play the good & humble little disabled person who’s so grateful for any small bit of help able bodied people deign to give me.

disabled people deserve so much better than this. able bodied people should shut the fuck up about gratitude for “what disabled people already have” :/

sterile,

white room

crinkling paper

under bare ass.

no cartoon painted walls

like when i was younger

and mom was by my side;

there’s no reason to make this fun

to make it lighthearted.

it’s purely transactional:

i give you a list of symptoms

and you, mr. white coat,

tell me nothing’s wrong,

but something is

i feel in in my bones,

my stomach, my skull, my feet, my eyes;

in my heart.

so you lie through your teeth

that i’m healthy or it’s just anxiety...

fuck off.

nobody knows my body like i do.

Despair is easy, hope is hard. And brother, I like to stay hard

I think for the first time in a while,

my laughter sounded familiar
