genuinely I'm so sick of people wanting all fiction to be ethical. can we all just get a little gross with it. the point of fiction is that it's not real. we can be unethical in fiction; same goes with being perverted with fiction, being unrealistic with fiction, and being grotesque with fiction. not all fiction has to be ethical, not every character has to be ethical, and that's okay. can we stop with the puritanism. be gross. be unrealistic. be whatever. if I don't like it it's not my business as long as we're all clear that its fictional.

people in the replies are going "what about books glorifying unethical things" and "what if it's propaganda" and you, my friends, are who this comic was made for

You need to understand that twenty years ago this was considered the pinnacle of online culture.

and also he orders online ahead of time and he’s ordering nasty concoctions. the ticket board populates his name and order and they’re all like okay. remember. anything could happen.

if you, like me, are hesitant to enjoy what kinda sounds like "relaxes food standards" on the surface, I'm happy to report that this isn't "everyone can do what they want with your food supply without oversight" but rather a case where in NYC you had to have a permit to sell food and a second, superfluous permit to sell frozen desserts. This action simply removes the need for the second permit, rolling it into the first permit in order to help small businesses. Yay!

“Your pets only love you because you feed them”

Yeah well that’s also how your relationship with your parents starts out but more stuff happens after that doesn’t it

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

My neurologist is thrilled. Even just 10 years ago, he had so much more difficulty getting patients to use canes or walking sticks. Especially when, like me, about 80% of my walking is just fine. That 20%? Migraine with hemiplegia/hemialgesia/hemianalgesia (yes all in the same hemi). Chronic pain in my feet, which sometimes means cramps that make me unstable. I use a cane for short distances, rollator for medium, and have a mobility scooter for long distances.

He went on a mini-rant a while ago that was basically thanking me for using one because know what happens when someone is 80% fine to walk without a cane?

Falls. Major fall injuries including head injuries and TBI. Minor injuries leading to avoidance of walking and the resulting deconditioning leading to that 80% becoming 60%, then continuing to decline.

Whatever helps people move and reduces their risk of injury is amazing.

Mobility devices are great!

queerautism

I talk about this a lot - People simply do not take falls seriously enough. They are extremely dangerous. Anything you can do to mitigate fall risks, especially as you become older, is very very important.

As you said, the stigma against mobility aids used to be much stronger, and many older people straight up refuse to use them. They are the main demographic that are the expected users, the 'understandable' use case, that most people agree makes sense. Their doctors are often begging them to use them. And yet the stigma is so great, and has such power, that people with very reduced mobility would rather continue to struggle and push through without them until they have a fall that greatly injures them. It's so unnecessary and so heartbreaking.

We need to push for mobility aids to be seen as a normal, regular part of society. Something for every kind of person who can benefit from one in any way. That's the only way to eliminate that stigma and empower everyone, so no one is put in the position to sacrifice their safety for the sake of not becoming othered and judged.

every day i walk into work and my manager says “here is the rule you must enforce” and i go “got it bossman” and i spend a couple days enforcing the rule and then my manager comes up to me and says “why are you enforcing the rule? we changed the rule yesterday and didn’t tell you” and i go “ok bossman new rule it is” and then a customer comes in asking to break the new rule and i say “sorry you can’t it’s the rule” and they say “but you don’t understand the rule doesn’t apply to me” and then my manager comes out and says “they’re right the rule doesn’t apply to them” and i ask why and my manager says “it just doesn’t.” and then the next day we get rid of the rule entirely and no one remembered it existed in the first place.

anyway this sounds like a metaphor for neurodivergence or something but it’s not this is just my fucking life

When you learn how to crochet/ knit or really any type of fiber arts, there will be a voice in your head that tells you that you should make something for everyone for the holidays.

Do not listen to that voice, for it is the devil.
