hey what the actual fuck
i literally paid my bill last month and asked for an extension, which they approved. now they changed their minds. what the absolute fuck?
hi i'm equinox, i'm a multiply disabled intersex trans person who needs help saving up for my power bill. i will be calling them on monday to correct this, but i will still have to pay some of it as my bill for this month is almost due. please refer to both of the screenshots of my emails, there is clear proof that i did these things
if they allow my extension which was already confirmed, and acknowledge my prior payment,, i will have until the 16th of September to pay. if not, i have pay on the 12th.
without their lie about me not paying my bill last month, my bill this month should be $76. i will update this with a report on monday when i contact them but fornow i still need to save up the money regardless
i am immunocompromised, i deal with hypermobile ehlers-danlos and psoriatic arthritis andi just got my covid and flu vaccines yesterday so i am very tired and it has been hard to move or even stay awake. im having very bad body aches. if you'd like to help me save up for my (hopefully $76 bill), you can do so in the following ways:
cash app: $glitterGraphix
pay pal: glittergraphicnightmare @ gmail. com
chime: $Equinoxian
venmo: $Equinoxian

QUICK PSA FOR THE DISABLED COMMUNITY
If you take any daily medication, do not eat grapefruit or activated charcoal unless you know for a fact they won’t affect your medication.
Both Grapefruit and Activated Charcoal will cancel out medication.
‘Where would you ever eat activated charcoal?’ You may be asking
Well
Halloween eve is here y’all and if you want a black cocktail or cupcake, it was probably made black with activated charcoal! So please double check before consuming!!

Got told off in one of my fav servers for describing myself as severely disabled (bc need help with a lot of ADLs and can't live independently nor by myself) bc of the term being controversial and told him that it wasn't controversial
And now I'm rlly worried (bc of moral OCD probably) 😭
Is it controversial??? Please someone tell me 😭

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

Angry rant alert
I am so fucking tired of people drawing/writing Scar with no wheelchair.
If you're an artist, you got this far with drawing you can fucking learn how to draw one. It's not 'too hard' it's your own ignorance. I don't care if it's 'not canon' stop being a pussy and using that as an excuse and just say you don't wanna draw/write your sexy Scar that you drool over in a wheelchair because you think wheelchairs are unattractive. It's not a good look for you. If you're not doing it on purpose and it's subconscious you can unlearn ableism, I hope this is a wake up call.
I'm a wheelchair user and we already get no representation as it is. Do you know how heartbreaking it is to see like 90% of the fandom fucking ignore his wheelchair for the sake of not being bothered to learn how to draw it OR because they think it's unattractive?
Try and come up with an excuse, tell me why you think you don't have to draw/write him in a wheelchair. Yeah? You thought of one? What shitty excuse is it? Maybe it's because you're 'not talented enough' you can learn. Is it because you don't wanna be offensive and mess Something up? It's more offensive to ignore his disability. Is it because it 'wouldn't work in the fanfic/drawing' yeah well guess what? Wheelchair users have to go through that shit in real life. There is ALWAYS a way to make it work because WE have to. We have no choice. If your excuse is 'well I don't want to so I don't have to' you're openly admitting you're abelist. Maybe you're thinking 'oh well I'm not rude to disabled people' if you didn't dislike them or think disabilities are ugly tell me WHY you don't want to draw/write it then.
End of rant. Cosplayers are exempt from this, don't buy a wheelchair JUST to Cosplay. If you wanna still be mindful of his disability you could always do cosplay photos/videos sitting down, or you could make a model cane instead (which obviously isn't as good as a wheelchair and you shouldn't do that in your drawing/writing however if you're a cosplayer it shows you're still being mindful of it and not erasing it completely)
Edit because somebody is ALREADY being stupid: I don't fucking care if cc Scar said it's okay to not draw his Character in a wheelchair. Tell me why YOU don't want to. Tell me why YOU feel relief that he's said that. I wanna hear it.
As my wonderful Boyfriend said, it doesn't matter if you HAVE to draw it. Why don't you WANT to.
Edit 2: Hopefully last edit. I've been told that apparently some people were harassed for drawing Scar in a wheelchair 'wrong' and I want to say, fuck those people for giving people a hard time. As a disabled guy I would much rather people draw wheelchairs 'wrong' than not at all. Drawing them is hard! I literally use a wheelchair and I can barely draw them! Please don't let those awful people offput you from drawing a wheelchair. If you do it and post it and people get mean about it genuinely tag me and I will take care of it. I really do feel for people who don't do it out of fear, and for you this post is irrelevant. If you're too scared because of the harassment you or someone you know has faced, please try and get over that fear but that is an actually genuinely valid reason. I really do encourage you to draw him in a wheelchair though.

this is the third time this month i've had a seizure triggered by tiktoks / youtube ads and videos / pinterest ads having rapid flashing lights without warning or overwhelmingly high frequency noises. i get the joke is that people without seizures impacting their day to day will go "ow this hurts my senses" but please understand that people prone to seizures will have seizures. if the entire joke is doing something that triggers them. so please think of us before you make your joke. also think of people with migraines, and autism who will also be put through severe pain.
thanks. here's cats

Do you ever just. Go on walks even though it's a little difficult? I'm very hypermobile currently recovering from two injuries but it looked nice outside so I just went on a little stroll anyway. I'll probably be sore later but it was worth it to not be cooped up inside all day, you know?
And it's not one of those "don't let disability hold you back" things, I think it's more of a "this hurts but I'm doing it out of spite because I want to" situation lol
Anyways I saw the ducks at the pond and I saw some very cute grandparents with their kids so I do not regret my decision :)

When I tell people I’m bullied for my disability, often the first thing that is said is “you should just hit them with the cane”. I don’t think they understand that I f I do that I risk losing the “privilege” of freely using a cane.
I don’t think these jokes come from a place of malice, but it just really shows how little the majority of the population understand how crucial the use of mobility aids are to disabled people.
You think I don’t want to tell these people to fuck off? You think I don’t want to stand up for myself? Of course I do. I hate having to sit and take this torment. But guess what happens if I do? I lose leniency, provisions and protections that I now have.
The people who bully me, I am afraid of them. I don’t trust that adults will handle them correctly. I don’t trust that I am safe at school. The reality is that if someone wanted to hurt me, it could be done.
I don’t like having to smile and nod when people touch my cane, when they take away my autonomy. I don’t like having to answer invasive questions. I hate being stared at, I hate being called “special”. I hate having to stand by through intimidation and mocking but this is my life. This is what I must do.
I don’t ever see myself being free from the “good cripple” charade. My cane is not an advantage. It is being held at my throat by our ableist society.
