Extremely fucking stupid bc genuinely who cares. Walking sticks are literally for anyone. They help you when you walk around. Perfectly healthy and abled bodied people use them while hiking because they just work.

And what if it was just a fashion thing? It used to be trendy. It gives your outfit a different vibe. Experimenting with fashion is fun, there's literally zero things wrong with using a cane because you like the way it looks or how it makes you feel.

Every single person choosing to use a mobility aid in public normalises their use, and makes it less likely for me to get harassed out there. It just becomes a regular thing you see while out in public. And that's the exact thing ableist TERFs like Stock are actually against - Not even mentioning the absolutely obvious misogyny here.

Covid was a mass disabling event. It continues to affect many, many people. Denying reality and gaslighting disabled people will not make us go away

They're more gotdang worried about nonexistent "social contagion" than about actual *physical* contagion, or about helping people feel better.

Sending love to anyone who is just… tired.

Not just physically, but mentally, emotionally, socially, financially.

Life is asking a lot right now.

Pause when you can. Breathe when you remember.

Give yourself space. Give yourself grace.

reminder to all disabled people that you’re allowed to tell people “i can’t do that” about stuff you can ‘technically’ do but which harms you or requires a period of recovery or preparatory rest etc. you don’t have to explain the complex nuances of your condition to anybody who demands it. i’ve found it’s honestly better to give the least amount of info about your symptoms unless you trust a person a lot. you hold the power over your health information. you choose whether or not to share the details of your condition with people who might not understand.

Is saying trans men pass easier not just bio essentialism? You think testosterone is a more powerful hormone? You think estrogen is the weaker hormone? That’s bio essentialism!

[lazarilla-marenostrum]

Tbh, I think one of the best ways to deal with a creative block is to write one-shot AUs with your characters that are completely different from the canon setting. I just feel like that's one of the best ways of doing a character study there is, or at least the one that works best for me.

For example, if my wip is fantasy, I think writing about how my characters would act in a modern-day coffee shop AU in idk Birmingham is objectively fun AND a great way to get to know them better.

out trans people like to try to convince closeted/repressed trans people who are in a position to transition, to transition as soon as possible, by saying "i badly regret not starting earlier". i don't think it's a very effective argument on its own. most closeted/repressed trans people have heard the same thing numerous times, they're deathly aware of it, they're already wracked with the regret of not transitioning today, every single day. simply telling them that the regret never leaves you doesn't have any convincing power. it might only make them feel even more hopeless or guilty. to draw from my honest personal experience, i would instead tell them:

"eventually—maybe slowly, and not always all the time, but surely—you'll notice that the regret of not starting earlier is drowned out by the joy and contentness of finally feeling truer to yourself. you won't have to live stuck permanently ruminating on past what-could-have-beens anymore, you'll be able to live in the present as yourself."

i dont think trans men should have to be happy or ok with being insulted or abused because at least the person insulting or abusing us called us men while doing it

[tboy-cock]

""girls gays and theys" excludes straight men, and that INCLUDES straight trans men" wow so brave and true, excluding trans men from queerness because our sexuality/presentation feels threatening to you unless you can objectify us. should we have a party? should we invite jk rowling?

Is there a word for occupying the space where normies think you're a freak and freaks think you're a normie?

I tell a woman with a 9 to 5 office job about the slightly niche speculative fiction novel I just finished and she goes "Oh, that's...interesting. I hadn't heard of that."

I tell a grungy chick I met at a dive bar about the same book and she kinda scoffs and goes "Okay" like I said my favorite show is Sesame Street
