i saw a man with cerebral palsy who had top surgery, and lots of people saying he cant consent and assuming things and being ableist.

but the response from people ‘defending’ him was…

cerebral palsy is 100% physical and not mental

he doesnt have any kind of cognitive impairment

i even saw someone say ‘hes disabled not dumb’

i need help with consent, including medically, and theres nothing i want more than top surgery. im so worried about my future

this isnt just abled people, it comes from other disabled people a lot. most people who have been ableist to me have been disabled and use the fact theyre disabled as an excuse to be ableist to me. we need to do better to intellectually disabled people

So far, I'm loving learning French, Irish, and Mandarin all at once.

It will likely get too hard to continue all three at once but until then, it's great.

now more than ever, it is imperative that you spend time with people you love and doing things that you love. be prepared but please please please don't dwell on things that have yet to happen. you have to have hope for a better future in order to build one. it's gonna be okay. we're gonna make it. i love you.

You survived this. Even with clenched fists and gritted teeth and neverending wounds, you survived this. I hope you remember that on the mornings when you feel worthless and small. You were given an impossible mountain to climb, and you climbed it to get to the other side.

It's important to acknowledge that some of the people we admire haven't been raised to be the amazing people they are, they raised themselves.

They healed on their own, they reparented their inner children, they learned and grew by their own strength and resilience.

Some of the people we admire are the product of their own inner strength and desire for a better life and it's important that we acknowledge that and give them the credit they deserve.

I LOVE BED

"guys we're so cooked" "it's wraps" "the end is near" shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up. i say that with love because you are probably saying it out of distress and hopelessness, but for your own well-being and for everyone else's, please stop saying this shit.

no we are not "cooked." and by saying that, by the way, you are giving more power to the neo-nazi oligarchy in charge.

they want you to abandon all hope of a better life. they want you to believe "oh well, it's over, we might as well stop trying to fight back and just resign ourselves to despair forever."

every time you get on tiktok and comment "guys we're so cooked haha it's over," you are feeding into the mindset of hopeless compliance. you are, unknowingly, spreading this infectious idea that just because we've lost one battle, we've lost the entire war.

your words matter. i am saying this out of love and concern for our future, but please stop choosing words of defeat.

I found out it's "not the city's problem" in elementary school when I wrote a little thing about how the sidewalks kinda suck and maybe something should be done. 😕

Absolute bullshit it is.

i wish sidewalks got fixed more often. do city officials have any idea how difficult it is to walk on a sidewalk thats absolutely covered in cracks that make the ground super uneven? even with my cane, i almost fell so many times because there was a large crack in the sidewalk. every time we walked somewhere i had to stare at the ground and walk so carefully. my ankles still feel weird from all the almost falls

It’s okay to take that nap. To watch that movie while cozy in bed. To eat that treat, and a wholesome meal. You don’t have to earn it. You don’t have to rest to be able to push through later. You can just let go and relax for a bit, because you’re human and your body need it. 🌱🦋🌻

via NYPost: Immigration and Customs Enforcement is preparing to launch a “big f–king operation” across sanctuary cities — including Chicago and New York — immediately after President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration, multiple sources told The Post.

Starting Jan. 21, multi-day “ground operations” will be launched across cities that have served as safe havens for migrants because the local authorities do not cooperate with the federal government when it comes to immigration issues, sources said.

It sucks feeling like I already have regrets that will haunt me until my dying day.

finishing something is better than to be constantly perfecting it and never being done thursday

[cutthroatkindness]

first step to living a better life is believe you deserve it. you deserve good things. i promise.

[cutthroatkindness]

the truth is you aren’t the same person you were 2 or 3 years ago. you’ve grown an unbelievable amount since then. you are not the same scared person you were then. through the challenges you have faced along the way you have been molded into someone new, someone strong. keep going.

i hate everything and everyone telling me, implicitly or explicitly, that my poor health is the consequences of my actions. that it's about my diet or my activity levels or not doing enough treatments or relying too much on aids or medication, it's very tiring. and it creates this constant stress of having to constantly think about how to manage your health in the ideal or optimal way. and they actually don't even care. even if you follow treatment exactly as directed and things don't get better, or even get worse, that barely gets you pass being treated like you aren't doing enough, and even then they'll recommend the same treatments that failed. there is this constant pressure on disabled people to be model humans in a way that abled people themselves couldn't meet. to do exercise and eat well and never drink or smoke, to keep your stress down low, to vary your activities. like i wonder what they think being disabled means if they think you can work your way into managing it all perfectly.
