Kiwis. NACT is now attacking the Disabled community, even going as far as to get rid of their ministry and throw them like an afterthought into MSD. they are cutting job seeker benefits, sanctioning job seekers and what do you think happens when people have no money?? They are going to drive people towards crime. This is not how you solve poverty. I don't know how we can fight them(or even if we can) but hopefully there is a way to try. Not to mention how cruel it is to throw people in one basket for job seeker when there is a multitude of reasons people are on that benefit. Fuck NACT.

“I am at high-risk of severe acute illness from a COVlD infection, as well as my MIL who lives with me, my husband, and our two children. Since the pandemic began, we have had to move to homeschooling them to protect our family. We have been largely ostracized by our community, and now we will be criminalized for wearing masks in public and hope that local law enforcement refrains from engaging with us over masking. It is unfathomable to me that we are told that we must live with COVlD since the will to mitigate his virus has completely crumbled from our government at all levels, and now the most important tool we have to prevent infection is being criminalized.”

(otherwise known as hate names terrible at decision)
VERY pastel n rainbow overload >:)
they level 3 autistic (“requiring very substantial support”) with high support needs—meaning they cannot independently do most adaptive functioning skills, needing other people physical help to do/do for them. they also need 24/7 supervision & physical help for all iADLs & bADLs.
they nonverbal & use AAC full time. their AAC is symbol based speech generating device.
their (most likely [<haven’t decided] partner who act as their) disability caretaker is hyacinthos shinya🪻🌌.
they also full time non-ambulatory wheelchair user with very specific posture & seating positioning needs so not out of it for long or really much at all.
angel wing on back of wheelchair is power assist! is magically powered by hyacinthos (who angel) & can be powered even remotely / far away. way control wheelchair & power assist part by intuitive / hand motions & gestures / etc, part by halo hover above armrest that act as joystick. can use it like traditional joystick or wear as bracelet n control that way! (gimme it i want one) (if you recognize this setting it may be because previous version)
they do mix of self propel, power assist, & caregiver push. their wheelchair have stroller style push handle instead traditional push handle for easier caregiver push, especially one handed.

Hey guys, just a fun reminder that we are PRO PARAPHILIA. We support ALL Paraphiles, we advocate for their freedom to speak about their feelings and get help, and we advocate for them to not all be treated like predators.
We support pedophiles. We support zoophiles. We support necrophiles. We do NOT support anyone attempting to harm children, animals, or other people. We DO support paraphiles using roleplay, BDSM/Kink, and similar things as outlets for their feelings. We do NOT support attempting relationships with living, non-consenting things.
If you follow us, you need to understand that we SUPPORT ALL PARAPHILES. We support them finding community between themselves, we support them being able to speak about their attractions, we support them finding outlets for their attractions that don't harm people.
Also: WE ARE ALL OF THE BIG THREE. We have disordered pedophilia, and are a zoophile and necrophile.
If you follow us and do not support paraphiles: Being allowed to find community, being allowed to speak about their attractions without being attacked (especially in psychological situations such as therapy), being free to use Kink and BDSM as coping mechanisms, and being free to do absolutely none of that if they don't wish to.
Then UNFOLLOW us, especially if you reblog shit putting down Paraphiles.
TLDR: We support all Paraphiles and believe they deserve a safe community. This doesn't mean we support Grooming or Predatory Behaviors in any amount.
