#mobile issues

[blatantescapism]

Not sure if this is intended behavior, the fact that I’m on mobile, or just my rural internet connection fighting for its life, but every time I try to boop using the big paw button on someone’s profile page, it says I’m booping *myself*.

Then I get messages about boop laundering, which, hilariously, include a text link to boop yourself *more*. (I tried this exactly once. The rest of the time I genuinely have been trying to boop other people!)

The only way I can be certain that I am sharing boops correctly is to hit the tiny text “boop” next to a specific post.

Just wanted to let my followers know that if I respond to something late or become more inactive, it's because I can't use Tumblr on mobile anymore *sad*

This is a friendly reminder that none disabled people often do benefit from the same accommodations disabled people benefit from.

You don't wish your disability was worse or more visible, you wish your disability was taken seriously. Please stop confusing the two, I guarantee you would not get the support you need JUST by being more severe or more visible. Please listen to visibly disabled people when we tell you it isn't better on our side

I feel like most able bodied people see wheelchairs as the worst thing that could happen to a person. When I discuss my want to have a wheelchair for various reasons, most peoples first reaction is to be surprised that I could voluntarily consider that.

But what they fail to consider is that, unlike them, I very much hate walking. It causes me pain and fatigue, it is a miserable experience.

So to any able bodied person reading this, yes some wheelchair users like walking, some want to gain that ability back, but that does not invalidate the feelings of wheelchair users who absolutely hate walking.

Is anyone else on mobile having an issue where you can follow a blog? I know the one that I do wanna follow is deactivated, hasn’t blocked me, what gives? @support can I have some help please?

Is anyone else having a terrible time with tumblr mobile, specifically photosets? It won't let me drag and rearrange photos suddenly and randomly decides what order they're going to be in, it's driving me right up the wall

something i rarely see addressed on here in discussions of transmasculine bathroom issues is the difference between men's and women's rooms, and the way it excludes transmascs with vulvas.

I am a trans man pre-surgery of any kind. ideally i would like meta with UL, but for euphoria reasons primarily- STPs are expensive and a hassle, so i have no issue sitting to pee. i am 11 months on T and do not pass. using the women's room bothers me, but i live in the southern US so it's safer. i have no issue dealing with it to quickly piss and leave. what i do have an issue with, is when someplace claims to be trans inclusive, but in practice, is not.

i had a pretty awful night. my boyfriend and i had been planning to try out a local goth nightclub for weeks, and we finally got the chance to go. when walking in, there was a sign on the door that said "no racism, no homophobia, no transphobia..." etc. i was excited, thinking that i may actually be able to use the men's restroom for once! a few drinks in and the urge hit- i was feeling anxious, so i asked a staff member if it would be safe for me to use the men's room. "yes of course, we are very inclusive, there are plenty of trans people here." in i went and....

5 urinals, and one single stall- which was out of order.

i turned around and used the women's room. i had no choice. of course, there were 6 stalls in there.

this is not the first time i have experienced issues with men's rooms having a single stall- at a gay strip club, i ran into a similar problem, where the single stall in the men's room was not out of order, but instead, had a line of 20+ people. i, and a few other guys, opted to use the women's room instead of waiting (clearly this design flaw hurts cisgender men as well!)

men's rooms being built only with people with penises in mind, and often all but excluding anyone who needs a stall, is an issue that needs to be addressed far more often.

edit: ive seen a few people in the notes adding their own experiences outside of transmasculinity, saying that they don't want to derail- i want to make clear that nobody is derailing. this issue absolutely intersects with transmisogyny, ableism, and general androphobia (which i define as the way patriarchal expectations hurt all men, not any group systemically oppressing men.) keep adding on your own experiences. this issue affects everyone who has ever needed to use the men's bathroom.

People take the word ambulatory wheelchair user, and say it means exclusively part time wheelchair users and run with it.

I’m an ambulatory wheelchair user. But I’m not a part time wheelchair user. I use my wheelchair EVERY SINGLE day. That means that I’m not a part time wheelchair user, because I use it more than part time. A lot more than part time.

There seems to be this new rhetoric, that ambulatory = part time. And for most, this isn’t the case. Ambulatory does not mean part time, it simply means that you can walk.

I can walk around my room unassisted by any mobility aids. I cannot walk to the lunch room which is literally up the hall without a mobility aid. I’m almost a full time crutch user, and I’m an ambulatory wheelchair user.

I am not a part time mobility aid user, and I hate that people have come to the “agreement” that ambulatory means part time, when that is quite literally, not true.

NEWS FOR YALL AND POSSIBLY TUMBLR!

Is it just me or when you try to click a fucking link to anything, it just takes you to the damn Search Engine and shows you, BUT YOU’RE ALREADY ON THE DAMN APP?! Like, why is this happening? Why do I need to keep opening the app if I’m already in it? Why are you taking me to my search engine? More importantly, why were you taking me to NOT what that link is! I clicked on my Obey Me songs reaction list and it took me to a Twisted Wonderland matchup I did! This is bullshit! I literally had to stop writing after they updated their Tumblr site to ONLY HAVE THEIR SHOP A PAGE OPTION FOR MOBILE (FYI I do all my writing mobile platform, I don’t own a computer) AND THE HOME PAGE AN ADD ON PAGE. When I tried to click on links, they wouldn’t work! All they did was stay on the same page after I clicked a fuck ton! But if I were to exit said page, I know have 9 different links opened up to whatever links I ended up clicking on! CAN WE PLEASE CALL I.T.?! I MISS THEM SO MUCH!!!!

Disabled people are people. Therefore you can’t start touching me or grabbing my things without permission. If I say don’t touch me you do not ignore my wishes because I’m disabled. Just like any other person I have a right to autonomy over my body and my decisions. Unless you have been given permission or it’s an emergency, you cannot simply start touching me. I’m not an object I am a person. Being disabled doesn’t mean you, a random stranger get to make decisions for me. If it seems someone is in need of help ask them. If they say no you don’t then forcefully help them because you think you know better than them what they need.
