I might sound like an asshole but even though my grief brings me to my knees on a daily basis, I actually feel sorry for the people in my life who want me to move on. If you can’t understand why I am still grieving my aunt barb, maybe you have just never known a love like ours.

if you don't understand why somebody is grieving for so long over something, consider yourself fortunate that you do not understand.

You want proof about capitalism killing disabled people?? Two weeks ago, KN95 masks on Amazon were $12.99 for a 30pk. Today that same 30pk is $61.95, because of demand increasing. I’m on disability support. Realistically, I cannot afford that. & neither can most disabled ppl.

I did not expect this to blow up the way it did. I really appreciate everyone RT’ing + talking about the many deep-seated inequities facing marginalized communities, particularly the #Disabled community, during the pandemic, especially w/ Omicron. I also appreciate the mask recs.

I’ve had some people DM me asking if they can send mutual aid. I’m a mature student and this is my first Xmas living alone. Disability support barely covers rent. So while I feel weird about this, any support would be helpful for utilities, food & PPE:

@YaboiDom14 @LeftAtLondon Do you want a prize for missing the point or...? Yes, of course it’s the same price for everyone, but where I live, ppl on disability support live ~40% below the poverty line. It’s the same price for everyone but disabled people are extremely likely to not be able to afford it

Omicron is highly contagious, and ppl should not have to risk illness & death b/c they can’t make bail. Many of these ppl are already members of marginalized communities, & most don’t have access to proper PPE/social distancing. So let’s keep ppl out of jail w/ @bailfundnetwork .

@taylgbtswift I think they were written in that era but most of them (other than a few of the fearless/speak now ones) were never fully finished in terms of recording, so she and Jack/Aaron have had to rework the sounds and production which makes them sound more like her current stuff.

sometimes the best thing someone can say when you’re in pain is that they don’t know how it feels, but they hear you and they love you and they know it’s hard. you don’t always realize how rarely people validate your pain until it finally happens.

Made it to FL with very low pain & manageable anxiety, despite numerous travel delays and issues. A year ago I was so agoraphobic I couldn’t even ride in the car without multiple meds. So proud of myself today 💜

was anyone going to tell me that one of the main reasons why the German army was so powerful and tireless at the beginning of World War II was because all the soldiers were on crystal meth or was I just supposed to find this out for myself

I’ve gotten about 100 messages asking “are you ok” and I appreciate the concern but with all due respect, I am not ok now and I will never be ok in the same way again. my favourite person— my safe harbour— is gone. there is no universe where I could be ‘ok’ right now.

I’m having a rough day. I am trying not to talk about it as much, at least on social media, because it’s the same thing day in and day out and complaining about it makes me annoying and a bummer but fuck. Grief is just so heavy and every day I struggle to carry it.

— I need to get my hair done and face waxed to feel human again but I’m fully scared of the flare it’ll cause — I feel like I’m behind in life — I have to take benzos and antipsychotics just to calm my intense panic attacks from my agoraphobia #MyDisabledReality

@swiftiesorority @delicatelor @taylorswift13 blind loyalty to any person or cause is a mistake. part of supporting anyone— whether it be someone you know personally or a public figure— means being able to give fair & gentle criticism & point out when they are making choices that are destructive to themselves and others

tonight my grandmother told me I’ve been “living an unnatural life”, in that I’ve been unable to work or study since becoming disabled by chronic #migraine . My disability doesn’t make me, or my life, “unnatural”. I am just trying to get through the fucking day. #ableism
