Unfriendly reminder for abled bodied people.

Disabled people don’t owe you a list of their diagnoses for their existence as a disabled person to be valid.

You do not need proof of someone’s disabilities in order for you to believe that they’re disabled. You’re demanding proof for something you’re not entitled to.

You’re just being ableist by trying to “prove” we’re faking, and trying to find more reasons to dismiss disabled people.

to all my fellow disabled people:

you’re disabled enough. your pain is painful enough, your fatigue is exhausting enough, and your emotions are challenging enough. you’re allowed to call yourself disabled. you’re allowed to use the resources that help you out. and you’re allowed to advocate for receiving the support you need

Me: oh yeah, if you think school photography is hard now, try imagining doing this with film.

The new girl: what's film?

Me: ... film. Like... film that goes in a film camera.

New girl: what's that mean?

Me: ... before cameras were digital.

New girl: how did you do it before digital?

Me:... with film? I haven't had enough coffee for this conversation

New girl: I need you to show me how to format the usb.

Me: format?

New girl: yeah what do I do?

New girl: but how do I do that?

Me: ... they dont... teach you this anymore, do they?

The lack of computer skills is becoming a problem. Like there was a period of time where the older workers in office jobs had to be brought up to speed on computers, but now a lot of the newer workers have the issue too.

There's a lot of assumed technical literacy because we had a whole generation brought up on desktop computers, but now it's one that was brought up on phones, tablets, and chromebooks. Phones are easier to use, but that means the users have never had to work around the daily problems presented by most desktop environments.

But our systems are still set up assuming the kids are "digital natives" who just already know this stuff. So no one teaches them. So a new employee walks into the office... and they just don't.
