Help Me Get New Mobility Aids!!!

Happy Disability Pride Month! I initially wasnt going to make a post to try to get new mobility aids/tools, but I really need them, so what the hell.

I am a multiply disabled Black lesbian and I have been without proper supportive mobility since the start of the pandemic. I had many of my things broken or thrown away during this time period, and I thought I could go without but its been so long and I really cant anymore.

I need smart/ergonomic forearm crutches because regular forearm crutches wreck my fragile hypermobile wrists, I need braces for both legs and ankles, a shower bench and detachable showerhead. All of this combined is a bit over $550.

I REALLY need this, esp the crutches! My mobility and bodily autonomy would be GREATLY increased If I was able to get these items. I

TLDR?: Disabled Black Lesbian needs new mobility aids for increased mobility and autonomy.

"Yes, it's true: I was the type of young femme who managed the girls basketball team in high school, just to be able to take in the sight of all those butches parading their muscles up and down the court. I found Girl Scout camp to be femme heaven and reveled in being able to explore my athletic self and still maintain my femmeness. And, to my horror, I have to admit pushing Tina away from my breasts in the back seat of a Buick while attending Mount Saint Mary Seminary. And then there was feminism... Although I came out as a "gay" woman before reading The Feminine Mystique, the seventies brand of white feminism had me trimming my nails and cutting off my hair. Soon I was outfitted in farmer jeans and high tops. And still I was told by my "sisters" that I didn't "look like a dyke" (read: I didn't look butch). I began to lead two lives- one as an outrageous, skirted, lipsticked femme while I worked in and traveled with carnivals, and another as an imitation butch back home in the women's community. Eventually, I pulled the pieces of my being back together and proclaimed boldly, "I am a working-class lesbian femme." So I had maybe six years reveling in unleashing my seductive femme self when, as lives go, mine changed: slowly at first and then more dramatically. Recurring back pain and limited range of mobility were finally diagnosed. Soon after came decreased mobility. No more mountain climbing. No long mall walks in search of the perfect piece of sleaze. No more standing against kitchen walls being gloriously fucked by some handsome butch. I stopped using alcohol and drugs, became ill with what is now known as CFIDS (Chronic Fatigue Immune Dysfunction Syndrome), and began to use a three-wheeled power chair. The more disabled I became, the more I mourned the ways my sexual femme self had manifested through the nondisabled me: cruising at the local lezzie bar, picking up a dyke whose eyes refuse to stray from mine, dancing seductively, moving all of me for all of her. Cooking: love and suggestion neatly tucked into the folds of a broccoli quiche. Serving my date in varying, sleazy clothing, removing layers as the meal and our passion progressed. And making love... feeling only pleasure as my hips rose and fell under the weight of her. Accomplishment and pride smirked across my face as her wrists finally submitted to the pressure of strong persistent hands. There are the ways I knew to be femme, to be the essence of me.

It's been five years now since I began using my wheelchair. I am just awakening to a new reclamation of femme. Yes. I still grieve the way I was, am still often unsure how this femme with disabilities will act out her seduction scenes. I still marvel when women find passion amidst the chrome and rubber that is now a part of me.

There have been numerous dates, lovers, relationships, sexual partners, and fliterations along the way. Cindy, Jenny, Ellie, Emma, Diane, Dorothy, Gail, June, Clove, Lenny, Cherry, Diana, Sarah I, and Sarah II. You have all reminded me in your own subtle or overt, quit or wild ways that I am desirable, passionate, exciting, wanted.

Yes I am an incredibly sexual being. An outrageous, loud mouthed femme who's learning to dress, dance, cook, and seduce on wheels; finding new ways to be gloriously fucked by handsome butches and aggressive femmes. I hang out with more sexual outlaws now- you know, the motorcycle lesbians who see wheels and chrome between your legs as something exciting, the leather women whose vision of passion and sexuality doesn't exclude fat, disabled me.

Ableism tells us that lesbians with disability are asexual. (When was the last time you dated a dyke who uses a wheelchair?) Fat oppression insists that thin is in and round is repulsive. At times, these voices become very loud, and my femme, she hid quietly amidts the lists.

Now my femme is rising again. The time of doubt, fear, and retreat has passed. I have found my way out of the lies and oppression and have moved into a space of loving and honoring the new femme who has emerged. This lesbian femme with disabilities is wise, wild, wet, and wanting. Watch out.

Hot take: neurotypicals need to stop using neurodivergent language. Like girl you're not going nonverbal cus you don't feel like talking 😭😭😭

[violottie]

ahem, taps mic....

lesbianism is not a quota to fill. lesbianism is not what you do. it is innate; it is who you are.

a lesbian is a woman or lesbian aligned nonbinary person who is exclusively attracted to women and non-man aligned nonbinary people.

you fit that? you're a lesbian!

lesbian sexuality is so profoundly beautiful and diverse and powerful. it is boundless, limitless and abundant. it is joyous and overflowing with glory and strength.

take pride, lesbians. we are the best.

Happy International Lesbian Day!

The lesbian community has caused me a lot of strife, if I'm being honest with myself. There's a good chunk of my fellow lesbians who don't accept my complicated identity with masculinity and butchhood, and anti-masculinity is a very real and scary issue in our community.

But throughout it all, I'm managing to find fellow lesbians, especially masc/butch/stud ones, who remind me why I feel so connected to this community in the first place. Why it's my home, regardless of how many people who want to exclude me to it.

So here's a shout out to the masc lesbians. The butches, studs, mascs, the racialized masc/butch/stud lesbians, the transmasc lesbians, lesboys, boydykes, butchboys, malesbians, lesbian men, the transfem/woman masc/butch/stud lesbians, the trans/non-binary masc/butch/stud lesbians whose gender falls outside masc/fem, the androgynous butches, faggy butches, dandy butches, stone butches, butch4butches, the disabled mascs/butches/studs.

I see you, I hear you, I love you. We are so misunderstood and diminished if we don't fit the cookie-cutter-mold of hypermasculine cis white physically strong abled butch lesbian.

Even within our own community there are people who ignore us, don't actively think about us, even hate us. You deserve better than that. We deserve better than that.

But even if it feels small, there's a community for us here. You just have to find it. I promise you, you'll find it. I'm part of it, and I want to share it with you.

I love you, lesbians. Have a wonderful day.

Happy Pride Month to all the femmes, butches, and every other kind of lesbians that see this. I love y'all and you make the world a better place.

Disabled people get criticized and called lazy for being unemployed but nobody wants to discuss how employers won’t hire us because we’re considered a “liability”. Many companies also refuse to accommodate individuals with disabilities. Let’s not talk about how the government takes away our lifesaving healthcare benefits if we make more than $2000 a month and this the reason why most disabled people live in poverty!!!

[mars-0326]

Bro i’m on this trip and I’m trying so hard not to “make it about me” because my disability new flash is disabling. I’m sick too and I couldn’t go to the first thing. So I ask my mom to make sure she videos this one part for me and she forgot. Now she’s pissed at me for getting upset and my dad who remembered but didn’t tell me is refusing to show me it because I was disrespectful. Crashing out right now

Hey, I never thought I'd find myself in this situation, but after some of you offered help, I decided to set up Buy me a coffee. Well, in my case it's Buy me a meal 😅

You can find me there @whitewolfsoul

I'll never be making any exclusive content or offer membership, this is based on strictly voluntary one-time support. Though, once I get my tablet fixed, I can make you a commission as a thank you gift at least xD

For more info, you can either read the last post about my situation, or I'll also share my profile info from Buy me a coffee below. If you decide to donate, know I'm really extremely grateful!!!

I would also really appreciate, if you could share this post. Thank you! ♡

I wouldn't be doing this if I wasn't absolutely desperate, I've always had issues with accepting help.

"I never thought I'll be doing this, but I've reached the most desperate time of my life.

For two years now, I've been unable to work because of extreme exhaustion. I've gone through multiple tests, which proved nothing, so the doctors ruled it's a result of my mental health.

Thanks to my multiple mental health disorders, I've been found elegible for disability pension, but just the lowest level. Right now, I'm living from state benefits that barely cover my rent, I get my food from food banks.

The problem is that for the past year, I've been suffering from worsening joint pains. Again, multiple tests that proved nothing yet, but I can't walk at this point. I can't even go to the shop or pick up my post, and food or medicine delivery is expensive.

It will take three more months for my disability pension to come, but that won't even cover my rent. Due to all of this, my mental health is deteriorating, and I'm also losing things all the time that I need to replace, making mistakes that cost me money because my brain is just so overwhelmed.

If you would find it in your heart to make a small donation just so I could buy some food, I would be extremely grateful. I don't share much about my condition online, but if you wanted to contact me to make sure I'm a legitimate person, below is my blog address."

Thank you! ♡

For Thanksgiving , the day of the lord and savior Mr Turkey for those who celebrate, I'd like you to consider helping an afro-indigenous person out! 🪶

I am disabled and can't work many hours due to my body pain getting worse by the year. We could use any help we can get. Additionally, I've been mentally and financially recovering from my hospitalization last month, which made me lose some of my income.

We are also trying to get important groceries and funds to move to a cheaper location sometime early next year.
