Because I agonised for an hour or more this morning on how i would get groceries before 'allowing' myself to order them to be delivered:

You don't have to push yourself to your absolute limit constantly as a disabled person to prove you are worthy of care and support and recovery/improvement/symptom management. (I know this is a broad spectrum that varies for each person).

Abled people do strictly unnecessary things to make their lives easier all the time. You're allowed to do that too.

I do actually care marginally about the guy in that reddit screenshot who voted for Trump and is now worried that he might lose his medicaid funding because I did not fucking stutter when I said healthcare is a human right but the people losing their internships and job offers to the hiring freeze are straight up hilarious.

Fondly reminiscing over the time mumbo hermitcraft jumbo revolutionized slime farming meta by building a slime farm that sucked ass so legendarily that it forced the technical minecraft community to figure out how on god’s cubic earth he even did that

Ten of my favorite props I painted for TMNT Mutant Mayhem.

1. Jukebox for the Bowling Alley scene

2. Bananas for their grocery run, don’t think rhsi got modeled

3. Bread for the Grocery run

4. Grocery bags and Milk

5. Bebop’s Juke Box

6. Aprils phone case and stickers.

7. Burger from the Bowling Alley

8. Jumper cables from an early version of the Chop shop fight.

9. Mondo Gecko’s Skate Board

10. Sniper Rifle which was from a longer version of the Ice cream truck Heist that got cut down for time and clarity.

Painting props is a very fun and more relaxing part of doing Visdev. We often get chives props in between doing big heavy lifting paintings for sets as a way to cool down. It’s great because props are a smaller task so you get the satisfaction for “succeeding” more quickly and often as you knock out a hand full of prop paintings. It’s more straightforward and less psychically demanding.

Politicians can never take your queerness away from you. Trump's inauguration speech may have directly spoken against queer identities, but that can't take away from who you are at your core. You know yourself, you know you're queer, and they can't take that away from you, even if they take everything else. Now isn't the time to despair and give in, it's the time to band together and protect each other. Your queer existence angers them. Continue to exist.

Be gay, trans and alive

Also btw trump recognizing only "the two biological sexes" harms intersex people too. I am a researcher of sex and it's affects on disease, and sex is far more complicated than "two sexes" and it always will be. Sex is multifaceted and there are far more than two binary sexes. Keep that in mind too. Don't fall into bioessentialism as you fight for trans people and intersex people.
