I was covering for dinner tonight with Alice. Like shopping, cooking independently has been years in skill building. Tonight her dinner was Italian sausage with broccoli and some mustard. #cooking #food #independence #disability #downSyndrome

Just did a video call with my new provider (internal medicine) , and she offered me palliative care. I'm kind of stunned. This is a good thing, right? I thought it was only for dying people, but apparently not? Is anyone else more experienced with this type of care? How is it going for you? #mecfs #chronicillness #chronicpain #disability

I thought I had endless energy. I was wrong.

This is how chronic illness, perimenopause, disability and sobriety forced me to be choosy about how my limited spoons are used.

** MUTUAL AID REQUEST - $500/2000 **

Hey folks! It's your friendly mod Glitch here, and I could use some help covering things for January.

I am a trans nonbinary disabled individual who has been unable to qualify for disability.

Funds raised will cover cat food/cat litter, groceries, personal care and hygiene items, and replacing my laptop that died so I can do some some side work and streaming while I wait for my disability claim to be processed. Thanks in advance!

Because sometimes survival doesn’t follow the calendar. 🕯️

Chronic illness. Seizures. Rest without punishment. Trust rewritten.

This isn’t about disappearing.
It’s about learning how to remain. 🐾💜

Leyendo descubrí el término de "cuerpos legítimos" y los que no, los primeros son los sanos/bellos por ende deseables
soy hombre discapacitado y aún a mí me sorprende lo poco o nada que me he sentido interesado sexual o afectivamente en mujeres discapacitadas
en mi defensa podría decir que no he visto muchas mujeres así
aunque dudo, tal vez sean personas que invisibilizamos, incluso yo siendo discapacitado me pasa

Ayer escuché a un hombre joven mudo, Gonzalo Giles dió una charla online
Usa un microfono para hablar mediante algo parecido a una tablet donde escribe
dijo que tenía un programa de radio
entonces al principio no se dio cuenta pero luego notó, que muchos lo usaban como forma de legitimar el sistema: "El que si pudo" "si se quiere se puede" y demás
pero al tiempo dice que se movió de ese puesto de "heroe" motivador, porque el defiende que la sociedad discapacita

[$230/600 complete]

For those who didn’t know, I am a 29-year old gamer and college student. I was diagnosed with autism since early age.

I am very dependent on my pension and my aunt on my budget, however most of it went for food. So I have set this fundraising to help me cover college-related fees, free tuition couldn’t cover beyond intended purpose.

Today, I find myself in urgent need of support. My school fees are heavy.

Driverless taxis?
So who is going to help disabled and frail elderly people who need luggage or mobility aids loaded? Or parents with young children and shopping?

And no, adapted taxis aren't the solution for all of us. I've tried in several areas in the UK to prebook an accessible taxi and the answer is always no. I can prebook an ordinary car but not an accessible one. No much help if I have to be at a train station or airport at a set time.

Accessibility is at best an afterthought or, as with this, ignored.

when did i first feel weird?
when did I first accept it?
Claim it?
Was it early
- because my dad had embraced his weirdness too?
in some ways?

will i ever accept my disability,
will i ever stop forgetting,
or having to remember
how i feel?

will I ever awake, and rise, without groaning?
or lurching
or gathering up pillows
and air

and will it be worse
to grow old, like this?
will I last that long?
and is that - can that be okay?

and my identity -
this self-expression,
this gender.
these choices of friends, and of family.
and places to live.

this face,
these hands,
these hips.
this voice.
this...
acheing body.
whose hands
will touch
and love -

and so
ever so.
