Okay putting up the clamp on umbrella: intuitive if you've used similar clamp on items. Putting at the least the umbrella part down... not intuitive AND not in the instructions.
(Or, intuitive but takes more force than I expected it to.)
Side note, riding #accessparatransit in my chair is fucking cozy, damn. Shoutout all the things coming together for my chair being usable again just as I feel like shit lol. #dynamicdisablity coming in hot lol.
DPSS and aaaargh. Money, capitalism, and continuing to be poor and disabled in the rise of fascism is so fun. /100 foot neon sarcasm
If you're able to help out financially, spouse lists his venmo & cashapp; ask for their PayPal and the zelle deets as that's a bit more complex. My cashapp is $Inoru if you want fewer clicks!
If you are also skint (it's a hard year and holidays always suck) then just retoots and mentions to get it going viral will do! (And remember, $1 is just as meaningful as $10 or $100 or $1000; the monetary value doesn't stack 1:1 with the virtue of it, so whether you can give nothing or you can give $1000, know that just helping is seen and appreciated deeply. 💕)

20 year old me would be so disappointed to know that at 36 I still get dubbed "too young" at a glance.
In this case, probably for my rollator bc it's not like you can easily see how easily exhausted I am, or how easily effed my joints can get, or...
Old folk don't have the market on disability cornered so keep your judgy stank face to your fucking self.
Noon-ish retoot bc I guess people are awake now or something idk. #mutualaid #MutualAidRequest #transcrowdfund #disabledcrowdfund #crowdfund #helpfolkslive #HelpFolksLive2024 #disabled #disability #dynamicdisablity #disabledvoices etc. Details in linked toot bc I wanna go back to sleep but I have pt later so I should probably go find... breakfast or something.

Now that you're all earwormed with Matchbox 20... casual reminder we're fucking poor and could use whatever boosts and donations of $$$ you can give bc we have like $150 maybe we can quickly access. (I'd get scolded by spouse AND sister if I counted birthday gift money as household. Probably.)
And there's stuff coming up, like spouse's top surgery and all where there is going to be an extended amount of time he can't do much. And bills don't stop. And I've been doing my best to try not to stress over money but the world sure doesn't make that easy, especially knowing it's likely I need a new wheelchair. (Like we have plans but. Best laid plans of mice and men gang aft aglay etc.)
If you can give, pls do. If you know someone rich and can lovingly bully them into giving a lot, by all means lol. If you can't, PLEASE boost this. Or spouse's toot. All over. Everywhere. We appreciate it all *so much*.
As always, spouse's handles for apps are in their toot, ask him for PayPal & zelle. If you want fewer clicks, my cashapp is $Inoru.

Transportation as a disabled person who doesn't drive is a sector that needs like. 10000000% improvement. Just improving the reach, depth, safety, and comfort of public transit would do a lot, but where we NEED to be on time bc appointments...
Better options than ableist paratransit that sucks at being on time (largely due to staffing, which is in large part due to sucky wages and also people cannot handle the fact disabled ppl have AGENCY and are Real People Thanks) or an agency associated with your insurance/healthcare facility of choice that mostly schedules you free lyfts. Which has a bug-filled app and requires an exorbitant number of phone calls to make work smoothly.
Like. What. Why are these the options???
Sometimes I am REALLY forcefully reminded I'm older than the ADA and that the ADA is selectively enforced as often as can be gotten away with.
"Ugly laws" weren't THAT long ago, y'all. Stand up and demand better for disabled ppl - *preferably* by boosting disabled voices.
