Definitely glared back at the random lady giving me a nasty look because she didn't think I needed my rollator.
This is a reminder that you can still serve cunt while using a mobility aid, hope that helps

My controversial opinion is that I think chronically ill people should be able to fight one doctor a year

Being in America is super fun because you get to see Trump going up against Biden in a presidential election with both of them being dogshit options, mass protests against what should very obviously be seen as an injustice that spits in the face of what you were told your country stands for, except the government disagrees, using the power of the militarized state to brutalize protestors, all the while people spread malicious lies regularly with millions believing their every word(a lot of it being thanks to some rich freak on Twitter). Also, the economy is doing pretty damn poor and you see media sources tell you to sacrifice your well-being all while the ultra rich get richer and richer.
And then after you're done with 2020, you get to do it again four years later

Usually doctors just tell me I don't actually have chronic pain and it's all in my head.
How can chronic pain patients be “addicted to pain meds?” That’s like telling someone with a prosthetic that they’re addicted to their prosthetic. Or a cardio patient that they’re addicted to their pacemaker. Or a diabetic that they’re addicted to insulin. What is the thought process here?

I hate the look on able-bodied people's faces when you can't do a thing that you could do the day before. The look of disappointment, confusion, the "Oh but you could do it before. Are you SURE you can't do it?" Like yes, Brenda, I'm sure that I am in too much pain to function/move from my bed right now so going for a walk when I could move 50 feet yesterday without my cane IS too much.

Sorry for not having a Year of the Dragon MDZS artwork; Unfortunately, I can only picture Dragon LWJ in this particular flavour.

I deserve to be believed.
you're allowed, love. you're allowed to hate that you can't do things. you're allowed to despise your own family for denying you anything. you're allowed to be spiteful and you're allowed to be irritable.
you didn't choose this.
and you're allowed to yell.
scream, love.
fucking scream.
I DESERVED MOBILITY AIDS.
I DESERVED HELP.
I DESERVED A BETTER COMMUNITY.
because you did, you did deserve those things.
you're ill.

Pots 'N' Picks Week 2024: Day 1: Tradition
Due to the similarities between dwarves and the half-foot God of the Harvest, and half-foots and the dwarvern God of Silversmithing, it's believed that there were originally communities of these two races that coexisted in ancient times, before eventually becoming ostracized from one another for unknown reasons. Scholars have found ancient artwork of these two gods dancing in fields of wheat, corn and sunflowers, and renewing their yearly vows with handfasting during the festival Sennasadh. Also found are stories of the pair feasting together, decorated in silver jewelery during the festival Timnos, presumably made by the god-with-hairs-of-silver's own hands. Poetry also exists, frequently referencing the pair in romantic connotations, but scholars today maintain the belief that the two gods were just really good friends.
Happy Pots 'n' Picks Week! I don't know how far I wanted to go with this but I definitely love the idea of half-foot and dwarf cultures being influenced by paganism. I'm always a sucker for God AUs, too! Their outfits, especially Chilchuck's, are inspired by these particular outfits from the daydream hours 3 and 4, because they're super pretty. :)

in my headcannons after the events of the final chapters, the entire touden party lives longer lives than usual for their races because of the effects of Senshi’s advice and his delicious and healthy food. And they can all enjoy each other’s company a little bit longer, and Marcille and Senshi don’t have to be as lonely for as long.
this is def also totally not because I tend to ship the short lived races with the long lived ones

TIP for any fellow disabled folks who have cats ❣️ if you got chronic fatigue or back pain or POTS where you cant bend down easily or even if you're able bodied and just feeling sick get one of these shits ↓↓↓
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It's got one huge sifter so after your cat(s) use it you just grab it, shake it side to side a little, dump the poop into a bag, put the now clean litter in a fresh box (this one gives you two litter boxes for this reason) and pour the clean litter in the box on top of the pan. You can put the second box under it to keep it out of the way for when you switch over again.
This Arm and Hammer one was only 15 bucks on amazon and it's so much easier to clean. It is heavy to lift up the full pan and dump the cleaned litter into the second box so keep that in mind, but it's so much faster and less arduous than shoveling the caked up cat shit for 10 minutes and having your back screaming in pain, numb feet, and a head rush from bending over 😭 i didn't know these existed until now so that's why I'm talking about it anyway if you see this you should pet your cat for me maybe give em a kiss on their stupid little forehead 🤎🐈🐈‍⬛

We mustn't forget our doctors in the background yelling at us for deconditioning and to stop being lazy.
random spike of energy
"oh this is amazing! I can do all that cleaning I've been avoiding"
the looming feeling of "oh no I've overdone it and now I have no spoons for a month"

something people just don’t think about is how often chronically ill and disabled people just don’t have access to good food. not healthy food, good food; well made, tasty meals that don’t come from a jar or a freezer. how many of us are housebound or can’t drive? delivery services only offer within certain distances, if you live outside a city they aren’t an option. many people don’t have the energy or ability to cook for themselves if they have the skill to begin with. many certainly don’t have the ability to learn how. it’s something that goes completely unnoticed, just the opportunity to have a good meal and how much that wears you down
