Hi, I'm Canon. I'm a disabled artist with some kind of gender and homosexual tendencies. You might have seen my usernames around in posts about loving OCs, or complaining about video game inaccessibility, or attached to one of the worm-centric comics I made, like these ones:

I hate having to ask for help when there's already so much going on, but I am also At My Limit.

To make a long story short, I am very disabled in multiple ways and I am living in a very inaccessible (and often directly disability-hostile) home. While I live with family, they do not provide assistance (financial or otherwise) and our rural location and the glacial pace of Canada's social services have left me A Bit Fucked. (Whatever you think Canada's health care provides, either it doesn't, or it takes half a year to even book an appointment.)

I've asked for help in the past with smaller goals, but costs continue to add up - and this time, finally, I may be able to actually make permanent accessibility changes to the household... if I can fund it myself. On the amount I get from the disability support program in my province, I can't do that; I would have to stop eating for months to afford even one of the major renovations in that time, and, obviously, I can't do that.

What kind of accessibility updates would this be going towards?:

A wheelchair ramp at at least one exit of the house; there are four potential exits, and all of them are currently multiple sets of stairs without railings.

A stair lift (for upstairs access) or a walk in tub (for downstairs access), depending on what my family will agree to

Dressers / storage that I am physically capable of opening

HRT (guess what isn't covered by Canada's health care, apparently!)

A whole mess of medical appointments (vision, prescriptions, dental, infinite various symptom testings) and transportation to and from those appointments (guess what else isn't covered!!)

A functional freezer

Physiotherapy 👍

Food 👍👍👍

And how can you donate?:

Donate directly to my Ko-fi page

Pledge monthly to my Ko-fi membership tiers

Order a commission from me (you'll be added to a queue; I can't provide completion time estimates right now)

Buy my premade digital goods (TTRPG resources, bases, tattoo tickets, etc) through Ko-fi or itch.io

Buy my art on physical goods through Redbubble or INPRNT

Buy designs / adoptables I've made through Toyhouse

Buy things off of my Amazon accessibility wishlist

I'm trying to buy used and second-hand / go through free stuff groups where I can to save costs, so I don't have a fixed goal and genuinely every bit helps. I really want to be able to get back to functioning somewhat normally, and due to Circumstances - as embarrassing as it is - I can't do that on my own, and I can't keep struggling with it the way I have been.

Thank you for your time, and any help you're able to provide. Reblogs are welcome and appreciated.

Learned helplessness in women frustrates me to no end. Basic life skills should not be gendered and so many women are perfectly content to throw their hands up and be like you know I'm just not handy like that, I just make hubby do it!

I wish more women knew the satisfaction that comes from fixing something yourself. The self esteem boost you get from knowing you *are* capable.

Like fuck no wonder we have such low self esteem. We have no sense of independence and self reliance, its hard to feel good about yourself when you're convinced you're incapable of solving day to day problems.

Im gonna go out on a limb and say that a lot of women are terrified trying because they've been told they have silly lady brains that make them bad at that stuff.

Like look, men don't fix their cars and their mechanical/technical problems themselves because they just innately love doing it.

That's not it, they do it because it has been ingrained in them from childhood that being self sufficient is IMPORTANT. Thats an aspect in male socialization that we have been robbed of for the purpose of making us dependent on men.

Do you do housework because you're so captivated by folding shirts? No you do it because you have to. This is no different.

Men have just historically gatekept skills that are more crucial than housework to keep us tied to them.

Its not a flex to not be able to fix things. It's not empowering to have a man do it for you. It's not empowering to never get your hands dirty.

I promise it's incredibly fulfilling to be able to rely on yourself instead.

i think i would enjoy roadtrips a lot more if using a public gendered restroom did not make me feel like i am being hunted for sport

I’m absolutely losing it over the fact the Alcina sent Bela ALONE to go after Ethan. She knows that her eldest daughter is capable that’s why she let her handle him alone.

Meanwhile she teamed up with her wild daughter to probably a) enjoy a good hunt with her and b)keep an eye on her because it’s Cassandra and she needs to make sure that her middle daughter doesn’t get too wild while chasing after Ethan.

As for Daniela— Alcina was just like nope this one is definitely sitting this hunt out and actually locked her someplace safe. Like she put her youngest in the library so she can lose herself in her books while staying away from danger.
