One way to know if you’re ableist:
You base someone’s worth on their productivity and what they can offer to capitalism.

A reminder that no matter what anyone (and yes, that means anyone) says, you are not worthless because you are sick. You are just as important as anybody else, no matter your limitations. People who say otherwise can't see the forest for the trees, and are not worth the time/energy.

breaking news disabled people aren't using their disabilities as an excuse because it turns out it isn't an excuse it's a state of fucking existence
and existence is everywhere all the time no matter what even if you wish it wasn't

What a lot of abled people don't understand is that when you get more sick as someone who was already physically disabled/chronically ill, you don't get the sympathy, you don't get people sending you cards and coming to visit and help you with things. Everyone just kind of assumes that you can handle it, that it's not *really* anything new. Maybe people might acknowledge it for a week or two, but then to them it's just normal. You were already sick, so why would being a little more sick be disruptive to you, right?

Being chronically ill is like
“It’s fine”
“It’s fine”
“It’s fine”
*complete mental breakdown because you can’t do this anymore*
“It’s fine”
