*buys a new bra*

me: i’m starting over, a new life! i am no longer the same person, i am a beautiful fresh radiant beam of light, i am untouchable, this is a new beginning

[tiredlakes]

how could you ever pick a favourite colour when all of them are so beautiful?? i found a new love for orange but i don’t wanna betray blue. i love pink because i didn’t growing up. i love green because it reminds me of the wold. i love yellow because my childhood best friend did. it’s tacky but i think there’s so much light and love in this world of all different kinds of shades and hues that even picking a favorite colour feels impossible to me

[tiredlakes]

time to be more radical and audacious, to reach out to people and not care if they never reply, apply for jobs that i want, not just the ones that i think i'm qualified, spend my time in a more meaningful way, put myself out there and stop being afraid of rejection or judgement.

on the topic of mobility aids i just want to throw out a non-comprehensive list of tips from someone who's been using mobility aids for 10 years

everyone has different needs and responds differently to certain mobility aids

if a cane isn't right for you, it doesn't mean you shouldn't look into other aids to see if they help

neurological conditions and things like strokes and brain aneurysms can cause someone to struggle with balance for life and are more than welcome to try out mobility aids

it doesn't matter if it's a genetic condition or an injury- consider an aid

wearing braces and using walkers, canes, and so on is very normal after injuries. please use them if you are in pain for a long time after an injury. injuries are serious too

if you buy a cane and it didn't work out for you, you're hurting no one

folding canes are helpful but have a lower weight limit generally speaking

crutches may be a good idea for you if you really struggle with balance and stability

your mileage will vary with each type of aid. you may benefit more from one aid at one time, and more from another in other situations. you may need several different kinds

if you need a rollator, wheelchair or scooter, it really is okay to get or try one. if your insurance won't cover it it's okay to buy or crowdfund one

walkers and rollators require low upper body strength, unless they need to be lifted up on to a curb in which case the user may need assistance

even the lightest and most well constructed wheelchairs are still heavy. they require a lot of upper body strength and mass to propel if you are doing it completely by yourself. you may also need assistance transporting them, getting them up or down hills, on to curbs, and so on

if you struggle to walk for extended periods of time (30+ minutes uninterrupted) you probably need some type of aid. if you have poor balance you may need some type of aid.

you're not hurting anyone if you end up not needing the aids. it's fine to try them

it doesn't matter if the pain or exhaustion or bad balance is related to your weight. you deserve to be as mobile as you want to and can be. its okay for fat people to use mobility aids. it's not embarrassing. being a fat person using a mobility aid in public isn't embarrassing. the people insinuating that are. fat people deserve quality of life

Shout out to disabled people who NEED (need) screen time to function or exist or socialise or communicate or anything else. I know people say screen time is bad. But if you need it for your disabilties? Use it. Please. So shout out to you.

[tiredlakes]

Being disabled in public is crazy because I never know when people are gonna shove me in front of an audience and make me give an “inspirational speech” hoe please let me buy my fucking cheese and tomatoes in peace.
