Hi. I'm not a friend to TERFS.

Just like I'm not a friend to racists, misogynists, transphobes (this includes trans people who deny transandrophobia, it's all transphobia people), homophobes, Islamophobes, antisemites and other bigots who lack simple compassion.

Interact if you want, you’re just not going to have a good time.

I'm in constant pain, and I am angry.

CRIPPLEPUNK PRINCIPLES AS PER THE FOUNDER

Not about music, fashion or aesthetics, it's about refusing to be the good cripple and is for physical disabilities only.

There is also sanepunk, madpunk and neuropunk for other disabilities; the first two for mental health issues and personality disorders, the second for neurological/neurodivergence.

-

Wah, you call people stupid and that's ableist!

PMOS MIGHT ALSO AFFECT MEN link so that people will shut up when I say that

For anyone here looking for info about chronic migraines, all the parts of the series "Migraine isn't a Headache" that I wrote during migraine awareness month can be found here.

I hope it helps.

Non Medical Tools for Migraine Relief

Extremely helpful for migraineurs.

-

I'm viruently against euthanasia/MAiD, and it's supporters.

The government globally sees no value in disabled lives, and you've just successsfully protested to make assisted suicide legal in the UK because fuck disabled people who are trying to live.

It is being used to kill disabled people right now in Canada, it'll be the same in the UK.

-

I don't want anything to do with anyone who identifies as "transrace" or "transabled"

BIID/BID is a genuine disability, for which you should be seeking therapy (not because "you're cRaZy" but because I can't imagine how distressing it must be and you deserve support and relief)

I can understand being mixed race and unsure where you lie.

But you can't identify as another race. You can't identify as disabled if you don't have a disability.

"Who is it harming?" Fuck you.

These are peoples real lives and actual lived experiences. We aren't your opportunity to LARP as a minority.

It's disrespectful, it's insulting, it's making a mockery of people who have struggles, and celebrations, that you think you can just walk in and out of like they don't mean anything.

Screw you.

Burning need to paint or make lace, but holding myself upright while seated is hard, I feel like crap, and I still have to feed my fish and take a shower ☹️

Most people on this website are literally this image

[headpainmigraine]

@crippled-peeper should resonate with you and the stupid cowards fucks in your DMS.

But swap racist for ableist. Or transphobic. Man, keep racist anyway, most of them are too.

having a conversation with a friend, want to test a hypothesis:

disabled people, is the word “lame” ableist?

yes, it is ableist

it has ableist history but is no longer ableist

it is not ableist

other

Remaining time: 3 days 2 hours

(poll for not currently disabled people in reblog)

not currently disabled people, is the word “lame” ableist?

yes, it is ableist

other

Remaining time: 3 days 2 hours

please reblog for larger sample size!

[headpainmigraine]

Sample sizes are hugely different right now (46 vs 5) but these results are... interesting

I wonder if this would be different if 'disabled people' were split into physical vs non physical disability

[wheelie-sick]

seconding prev about splitting results between physical and nonphysical disabilities. "lame" as a word came from a descriptor of physically disabled people. it's not a word that every disabled person gets an opinion on

*physically* disabled people, is the word "lame" ableist?

yes, it is ableist

it has ableist history but is not currently ableist

it is not ableist

other

see results

Remaining time: 6 days 5 hours

[headpainmigraine]

Also agreeing with prev's tags, if you don't use 'dumb' as an insult for intelligence because of it's ableism, you shouldn't be using 'lame'

ETA, I do use stupid, liberally, but in a different context.

It's nothing to do with capability, everything to do with wilful ignorance or spite

I've said it before, that I'm so bad at recognising when I'm in prodrome

But I realised this time when a repetitive sound effect in a show I was watching started driving me to fury, and I suddenly connected two dots

Not that it really meant anything because I'm not on triptans or any other abortive right now, and the migraine still hit, but still

the racism against indians is just overwhelming and insane. its everywhere. people go out of their way to talk about how indian immigrants are 'the worst kind of immigrants' when its people working their ass off to get a medical degree while working underpaid jobs in delivery just to get a better life.

people are literally chomping at the bit to say indians are the reason their wages are falling and their life is getting worse because indians are ready to work for less money or some shit. it's actually very disturbing

[boiledsnailsinapot]

I hate this and nearly everyone makes fun of Indians, even other people of colour. They're seen as the "dirty asians" compared to the Japanese and Chinese, they're seen as "less oppressed versions of black people and socially acceptable to make fun of" they're seen as poor, uneducated, helpless people, they're seen as people who can't understand anything, they're seen as people who are always going to support a man stereotypically (which gets fucking annoying btw, it's basically saying that every Indian person is a misogynist due to the social culture of "those animals" /last two words are sarcasm and what the racists say, not my own words), they're seen as people who will do anything drastic for culture, they're not even seen as people, actually.

I will admit that there is a lot of misogyny that is shown, but I'm not Indian so all I can say is to not fucking stereotype a billion PLUS people people based on who is in the media with the same nationality/ethnicity.

In England this is especially rampant and I fucking hate it. I'll go to school and a black guy and a white girl will be making fun of Indians as if they haven't been discriminated against ever for a protected characteristic. As if they dont care that an Indian girl sits next to them in class. As if her opinions dont matter. As if she doesn't exist. As if she isn't human.

Adults in pubs or places i go to will always bring up the immigrants stealing jobs. I'll always hear ONE thing about immigrants within my visit and its usually Indian people.

Tldr; anyone can be racist AND it's especially rampant towards Indian people, including things i have heard in my own life

Edit:

I hope you were talking about Asian indians and not native Americans otherwise this is embarrassing (most of my points still stand though)

[headpainmigraine]

Nope, as an SEA Brit who was that kid in high school, you're right on the money. For some people, racism stops at Black people

And is there misogyny and colourism and racism in India? Yes.

But since when has a nation had to be ideologically pure for racism to be bad?

as a trans girl, i think we should kill transandrophobes. they make me so angry. we should be protecting our brothers, not bullying them. this shit doesn't help anyone except for the people who want us divided.

[123gocat]

as a trans guy, i think we should eliminate transmisogynists as well!! LOVE YOU TRANS SISTERRSS!! 💖💖 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️ we should all love each other and be happy . DONT YOU THINK I FORGOT ABOUT YOU INTERSEX AND NONBINARY FOLK!!!!!! 💝💝💝💝

People with skin conditions deserve better. People with acne, eczema, psoriasis, hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), and other skin conditions do not deserve to be treated like we're contagious or an eyesore. We deserve to be in public and show our skin and not feel ashamed because there is no shame in having a medical condition. We deserve to be free from insensitive questions and unsolicited advice. People with scars, including but not limited to those from burns, surgery, self-harm, injury, illness, and acne also deserve to live life without worrying about rude comments and questions. Don't comment on people's skin, especially strangers'. Even if you think you're being tactful.

This isn’t feminism you’re being an asshole

[headpainmigraine]

This ignorant fuck (OOP) thinks trans men have privilege over trans women.

Do not look at her rambling in the notes unless you want to lose a little more faith in the human race.

[stefisgirlnow]

you do, dumbass. You're utilizing it right now, even!

[headpainmigraine]

I'm utilising my privilege as a trans man over you right now?

I'm not a trans man.

You really need to start engaging with real life, because this internet hierarchy of trans people bullshit has clearly damaged you to the point where you've lost any and all critical thinking, though I doubt you ever had that in the first place.

You think trans women can get pregnant, you dipshit. Your deep confusion about what trans people are smacks of Republican congressmen.

You're either a really shit transphobic troll or just a deeply stupid person, so regardless, talking to you is playing chess with pigeons and I'm not doing that

I don't really have to say anything else

People can just look at your incredibly misinformed ignorant transphobic land mine of a blog and make their own decisions

All this on top of you should know better, and it's pathetic.

[crippled-peeper]

are we fucking being so for real

[headpainmigraine]

Let's just play that out.

Abortion is banned > you end up pregnant >...hang on a second

"90% of the time (a statistic I found in my toilet paper after I wiped my ass) that a trans person gets pregnant it's happening to trans women who famously have wombs"

I do NOT appreciate [parish council] fucking CUTTING the emergency cord in the disabled toilet short so I had to go home and find something to do a temporary fix with and then go back and tie another cord to the emergency cord. And now I'm gonna have to contact them and tell them to fix it. For fuck sake. I've already been out 4 times before that today! I'm tired! And also! I had to go in backwards! Because of the fucking lip at the fucking door! Why isn't your accessible toilet accessible??? Not everyone can overcome the bumps I can in my manual!

[headpainmigraine]

This made me froth at the mouth.

I'd suggest sticking a 'NOT ACCESSIBLE' sign over the thing, but why should you have to?

Why do you have to educate themselves fucks on what a disabled toilet is?

I hope these people don't have any input on disabled issues in the parish, because fucking hell.

I'm so sorry, I'm so fucking angry

[phleb0tomist]

this disability pride month, consider branching out. learn a bit about a disability you don’t know much about. donate to a charity for a condition that doesn’t affect anyone you know. speak up for and value the lives of the disabled people who are so isolated you’ll never meet them, people who are institutionalised or can’t go outside or speak or type. show some love to disabled strangers in any way you can.
