Seeing glimpses of some big discourse on twitter but i have decided to ignore shit started on there because i think the tweet format is so fucking counterproductive to having actually meaningful conversations

#what i will say if only to myself is i think we need less people tweeting about how you need to excercise and more focus on #1. expanding how we define and approach 'excercise'#2. developing and sharing resources to help people engage in physical movement appropriate to their ability #which i do not expect to happen via twitter lol #but also its kinda ironic that people dont seem to make the connection that recreational excercise is something inaccessible to many #disabled people because their time and energy have to be put towards trying to survive the hellscape of capitalism #not that excercise in the conventional helps me in any way due to the horrors (probable ME) but #but thats why i think its worth expanding and upheaving how we approach wellness and movement #im a mild case so i do find stretching and gentle movement helpful but #i do wonder about like #how say can we make things like fresh air natural spaces etc accessible to people with severely limited capacity for movement #its a complicated matter since disability is a broad category...
