ughhh if u say soooo ๐
Annual reminder to my fellow disabled and/or chronically ill folks that the new year doesn't mean you have to set arbitrary goals and reinvent yourself just because everybody else does. You will still be disabled next year and no amount of planning and setting goals will change that. You're already lovely as you are. Don't let society suck you into this shit that is just so unrealistic and toxic even for non disabled people. Take care.

I FEEL SO SILLYYYYY
fellow LSN disabled people, this is coming from a place of much compassion and love. i hear you when you say youโre jealous of MSN/HSN peopleโs support. how you wish you could have such support. mental health is complicated and itโs hard to see through emotions and trauma.
but i really need you to understand that our higher support needs disabled friends arenโt inherently privileged for having said support. while it may be that if you had that same support your QOL would improve, they most likely need the support youโre jealous of to literally survive.
the point i really want to make here is there is a difference between support for QOL and support to SURVIVE. people die without these supports. that is not a privileged position to be in.
youโre allowed to be upset and angry that you donโt have the life you want and deserve, but please focus those feelings on society and governments. because they are the ones that created a world in which it is so hard for us to exist.
we need to be friends to each other, not throwing around misdirected anger and blame. please take time to listen to MSN/HSN disabled people and learn about their experiences, there are so many people out there begging to be heard.
chronic illness sucks like i just wanna do my silly little hobbies
UHC website has an article entitled "Response to Misinformation" in which it explicitly labels Luigi as a killer despite a trial not taking place. Which in itself is defamation and very telling of their concerns with pushing a narrative more than a legal and ethical perspective.
alright lets get this out of the way.
school bathrooms should be unlocked during school ALWAYS
school children should be allowed to go to the bathroom ALWAYS
school children should NEVER have to ask to go to the bathroom, just tell the teacher that they need to go
schools should NEVER question a child on why they need the bathroom
schools should NEVER make jokes about how often a child uses the bathroom
schools should NEVER get angry at children for using the bathroom
NEVER should a teacher approach a child about their bathroom usage.
if there is a concern or problem with a childs use of the bathrooms, the school should speak to their parent or have a meeting involving the parents and the principle.
if there is misuse of the bathrooms, the school should speak to their parent or have a meeting involving the parents and the principle.
you never know what children could be dealing with, whether they have bladder issues, gi issues, mental health issues or other disabilities. some children may be using the bathroom to hide from bullies, or they may have addiction issues.
it doesnt matter. its shouldnt be the teachers job to police toilet usage. only when there is an issue should limits or supervision be put in place, AFTER meeting with their parents and potentially the student to figure out the reasons for such issues.
i know this is really controversial but im really sick of horror stories from kids like me who dealt with the shit that is school bathrooms
i really want to reapproach the way i see success.
i think ive slowly been doing it for a few years now, but theres definitely more i can do.
i always think of it in the grand life goal kind of way.
but it doesnt need to be that..
and for me, i really wanna see if i can find things in my day-to-day life that are, a success.
did i put myself out of my comfort zone that day trying something new?
did i take a deep breath and calm my thoughts before getting frustrated at somebody?
did i show care to myself even when i felt unworthy of life?
did i do anything where if i was reading a book about me. would i be proud of the bee on that page?
because the answer is probably yes most days. but im not treating myself as if thats the case.
im so harsh to myself and i know this. i give grace to others where i would never for myself.
i just want to treat myself gently.
so cheers to small successes, the steps forward even when theres also steps backward..
and to not just treating others the way we want to be treated, but treating ourselves that way too.
im reading emily wildeโs encyclopaedia of faeries right now and im not sure how i feel about it.
like i like it dont get me wrong. i eat anything up that has fairies of any kind.
but im a very.. emotional person, and so the format of the book being emilyโs diary, and her being quite a.. professional and almost stoic? person, doesnt quite engage me as much.
maybe she taps into her emotions later in the story (iโm about a 1/3 of the way through) so idk!! thats just my thoughts so far
im down
Adult winx club fans should just find a place of completely forgotten land, pay for it together and build a bunch of tiny houses that are exact replicas of the dorm rooms in Winx Club and have parties and fashion shows and also maybe start a band or something
