Isn’t an introduction overdone? I’m fine with not being known. A warning might be fitting though: Do not get too close. You may get an embrace. Or you may need to brace. Can you handle my personal space? [Introduction zero] “Wonder, ponder, linger”

“If you close your eyes you won’t see a difference. People are people. There are bad apples everywhere. Judge people on their commitment, empathy, helpfulness, friendliness & effort. And behold, people of colour or any other culture are just like you and me. Often surprisingly social, hospitable & sometimes just as direct as us. Wonderful to experience and to cherish.”

We can learn from each other you know. I wish everyone would realize this.

Monogamous people with dozens of exes and the most horrifying relationship history you've ever heard of in your entire life: "Well I just can't support polyamory, because those relationships never work out"

I want more aromantic characters who are not also asexual !!! I want more characters who 100 percent want to get it on but just don’t feel any romantic feelings for anyone. I want more aromantic characters with “friends with benefits” except it’s literally just that. That’s their best friend and sometimes they let them fuck. More aromantic characters please !!!!

he would not fucking say that, but with disability.. he would not fucking be able bodied. sick n tired of characters walking away from multiple life changing injuries without a scratch. let’s get some natural consequences in here.

give that knife/sword fight survivor nerve damage. give the character who was shot in the gut a stoma. give that fire survivor lung damage and an oxygen cannula. give that leg injury survivor a cane. give that starvation survivor gastroparesis. give that spinal injury survivor a manual chair or powerchair.

while we’re at it, give your characters congenital disabilities too, just because. give them intellectual and development disabilities. give them acquired and postviral illnesses. dare to make somebody bedbound. for me.

“You have such a great ass.”

“You are so hot.”

“You make me so horny.”

“You have such a tight pussy.”

“You even look pretty in the morning.”

Yesterdays sentence from a colleague.

“Still can't decide you are innocent in a cute package, or devil in an angel set.”

“or just a simple serial killer.”

How am I even supposed to respond 😂.

Like a month ago I messaged a craft group about accessibility for wheelchairs and the answer I got was “there’s a lot of stairs but we have cute boys who can carry you”. And it’s…not good. As a wheelchair bound person I largely depend on people when I want to go out and do *anything* so I’m used to it, I laugh it off, make an annoyed post about it and off I go. But I wanna just say a thing real quick.

Even if I wasn’t gay, wasn’t a survivor scared of men, getting help as a disabled person is just…Not a pleasant thing to us! Imagine for a sec how you’d feel being carried up a flight of stairs. You’re a grown person. You’re being touched in an awkward way. You’d rather do it yourself. You’re So Uncomfortable. It’s not where I look for the beginning of a romantic relationship. So like…could abled people stop doing this thing where they think helping us in a condescending and infantilizing way is cute? Cause I’m real tired. Just get me a ramp or lift and I’m cool. I don’t need a dating service when I’m just trying to go about my day

If you’re abled please reblog it cause like…the more ppl knows the better

Even if it wasn’t insulting, its also not safe! Many people are too large to be carried by one person, ESPECIALLY on stairs. Anything that blocks the vision or throws off the center of balance of the person climbing the stairs dramatically increases the risk of falling. That means even piggy backing a 30 pound child, probably the safest form of carrying someone on stairs, is not safe! Unless you have proper equipment (a gurney with straps) and people trained to use it, carrying someone up and down the stairs is risking injury and death for all people involved.

Just outright say it isn’t accessible and try to figure out what can be done to fix that. Being cutesy makes it clear that accessibility isnt being taken seriously and people are right to be mad about it.

You ever hear that old chestnut about how most people neglect the part of the story of Icarus where he also had to avoid flying too low, lest the spray of the sea soak his feathers and cause him to fall and drown? You ever think about how different the world would be if Icarus died that way instead? If the idiom was to Fly To Close To The Sea? A warning against playing it far too safe, about not stretching your wings and soaring properly? You ever think about how Icarus died because he was happy?

Ever had such a good dream that when you woke up and realised it wasn’t real you felt like you just died a little?

“Sorry to hear that my princess hasn't slept well. I do always think of you when I can't fall asleep and it compensates. If everything is alright we can meet up for a walk, weather permitting of course. Desperate to kiss you again!”

“Me & you kissing each other sounds like a good combination.”

“You could be my dearest present! A kiss on the cheek or wherever you want is more than enough!”
