something i dont think pedestrians (non-wheelchair users) understand is that being a wheelchair user in and of itself is traumatizing, even outside of the medical reasons someone needs a wheelchair. the combination of structural inaccessibility, ableist comments and behaviors, and sometimes even assaults makes it incredibly hard to not feel like the entire world hates you and wants you invisible or dead.
every time i see some jackass without a placard taking a spot, get an invasive question, see inaccessible disabled bathrooms, see trash cans and power lines and construction equipment blocking the sidewalk, get stared at/whispered about/TOUCHED, get fake claimed, encounter broken elevators or no curb cut or no ramp, get infantilized*...it's incredibly traumatic.
i love my wheelchair, it's the only reason im able to go anywhere, but holy fucking shit is it exhausting to be constantly reminded that the vast majority of people out there either don't give a shit about us or actively hate us.
*disclaimer that i know these things happen to disabled pedestrians as well but i am speaking about my experience as a wheelchair user who experienced ableism like this increase significantly since getting my wheelchair
Hi all, so sorry to make another commission post but my family and I are yet again in a dire situation. For those who don't know, my name is Link, I'm 24 and I've been supporting my family and I since Nov. 2021 since we've been homeless and haven't had anywhere to go. Right now, we need 178$ in order to cover for today and the other three missed days. If we can't, we will be kicked out without anywhere to go. We don't have family/friends to help us out with finances or housing, so we rely on my commission work and donations. We don't have much time at all, only a couple hours at the time of this post and I'm really hoping to cover what we can. Posting on my other socials hasn't helped at all, so any help, no matter how small would genuinely mean so so much to us right now :") tysm if you do.
I'm mainly a fantasy artist, doing art for Dragon Age, Baldurs and all sorts of fantasy fandom stuff but I've also done personal oc art, yumeships, dragons, furries, other fandoms, etc! If you're unsure of something I can draw, feel free to ask! My only limits are heavy gore/anything that dives into proship territory (incest, major age gaps, etc.), and again feel free to ask if you're unsure if your request fits the heavy nos. My turnaround time is up to two weeks for the average piece (headshot, bust, half body) and 2-4 weeks for much longer pieces (full bodies, couples comms or rendered pieces.
Payment is also upfront due to our situation so I can't give refunds at this time. My prices are below, again thank you so so much for reading this and if you choose to help my family and I out, I can't tell you how much it means.
Here's where you can support directly (if able and if you'd like) since I've had some folks say they'd rather do that. You can also support me via c@shapp if you wish or if that works better! :) : $clearbluesky11

disability posting on fandom blog but it needs to be said and im too lazy to make up a new blog.
as a power chair user, please stop assuming i am incompetent solely because i am in a power chair.
I do not need you to direct my movements. I do not need you to shift people around me so that i feel “included”. I do not need your advice on how to navigate a crowd in an event. I do not need your jokes or advice about my chair. And unless i have said otherwise, I do not need strangers checking in on how i am doing.
even if i am having a day with a significant amount of cognitive issues, your input as even a “well-intentioned” stranger is deeply irritating and condescending.
What do you guys mean this is not what happened at the landsmeet??
Honestly I loved the whole landsmeet quest, especially researching all the different outcomes of how it can go. But it was one of those occasions where I missed more argumentative dialogue options.. and somehow my mind jumped to Ace Attorney. I don;t have any regrets
Soo I planned on posting all the sketches first, but I've just finished editing the whole thing and I'm so proud of it I couldn't wait to post it. It's just my little tribute to DA Awakening cast because somehow out of all the games they are my absolute favourites
Also the bg music is "Take Back The Night" cover by Kāru,
original song by TryHardNinja
Vocals are done by me, tho I'll try to rerecord it for the final versio
Dragon age origins is like…. You’re nineteen, new in town, and it’s your second day at pizza hut. You don’t even know how to work the register yet and you just watched your manager get carted off by the paramedics. You have no contact info for him, his next of kin, or corporate. The only other employee is the guy who’s been here for two weeks and is a bit of a doofus, and neither of you really know what you’re supposed to do now. You both desperately need this job though, and the doofus at least has a drivers license and *kiiinda* knows how to use the oven so you just. Shrug, and start taking orders and making pizzas and praying to god that the bills are on autopay.
And weirdly enough you’re really good at this: making pizzas and dealing with shitty customers and breaking up fights in the parking lot and pretending to be Duncan’s cousin on the phone so the utility company doesn’t cut off the power. But running a store is a lot of work for two dumb kids, so slowly you start accumulating a bunch of competent weirdos to help out, like the nun who left her convent because god told her to help you make pizzas, and the elderly school teacher who just survived a mass shooting, and the guy the papa johns down the street hired to run you over. And really there’s no way any of this should be working as well as it is - you’re absolutely committing fraud of some kind here - but you’ve managed to dodge the landlord every time he’s stopped by, and the health inspector never shows up to tell you to stop letting your dog hang out behind the counter and you’re all still kinda looking at each other and asking ‘are we allowed to just do this?’ before shrugging again and continuing to make pizzas, until somehow, through a series of unlikely technicalities, your doofus coworker ends up on the ballot for governor.
And after like five months of this the regional manager wanders in out of nowhere and you’re sure he’s about to chew your ass out for this mess, but it turns out he’s pretty chill and honestly kind of impressed with how you managed to keep the place up and running all on your own. So now you’re all thinking ‘thank god, there’s someone here who actually knows how to run a Pizza Hut’ only for him to get hit by a car two days later on the night of the Super Bowl.
