Someone who is willing to argue in circles with insurance companies and doctors offices is someone who loves you.

You are their beloved. They will face the monsters for you.

Owning slaves was legal. Helping slaves escape was illegal.

Kidnapping immigrants is legal. Helping immigrants escape is illegal.

History repeats itself. If you support ICE, you would have supported slavery.

things not to say when someone tells you they’re having a baby, from a transgender autistic guy named Algernon who has experienced a lot of trial and error:

Why? I know this is the question you want to ask. You are not allowed to ask it. I’m not sure why it’s frowned upon but you can’t.

You should name it after me. Not funny. No one laughs. A selfish statement that takes the attention off the pregnant party and shifts it to you. This joke is a flop, save it for the next pet they get.

Is it mine? It’s not mine. I have no testicles. If there is a possibility it is yours, they’ll tell you. Probably. No one wants an interrogation in this moment.

I've had fairly solid success with "And this is happy news, right?" Because I always want to confirm whether I am celebrating or problem solving.

Thank god for every disabled person who posts about their experiences and thoughts and feelings and opinions and pain and suffering and joys and wins and hopes.

Seeing other disabled people online just going about their daily lives and sharing and trying to make other disabled people feel less alone is what truly keeps me going.

This is our infrastructure, these are our lives, and it matters so much.

MY FINGERS BARELY EVEN TOUCHED YOUR STUPID FUCKING AD STOP REDIRECTING ME TO THE APP STORE

Ah yes, to be downright middle aged

and still treated like a child.

Then be villainized every time you stick up for yourself.

The life.

you have to be kinder to people with memory issues.

you have to be kinder to people who are slow processors.

you have to be kinder to people who don't understand your jokes.

you have to be kinder to people who forget important dates.

you have to be kinder to people with cognitive decline.

you have to be kinder to people who were always this way, too.

you have to be kind. you have to be kind.

dont misgender people

this includes if they express their dislike with a term like dude or guys and ask you not to use them

yeah yeah maybe its gender neutral to you but it isnt to the person you are talking to, and also it literally does not matter to you to change that to calling them girlie or something else they are comfy with

i use guys in a lot of my speech. i have friends uncomfy with it, and i dont use it on them.

literal bare minimum but if pointing it out gets you to change then good!!! change.

This includes using they/them when someone has given you their pronouns.

If they don't want you using neutrality, they don't, so you don't.

It was better than a Christmas gift

More exciting than unwrapping a birthday present

Today we opened and assembled my

Wheelchair

Indescribable. Beautiful. Joyful.

Why must it take money

For everyone to have this?

What do you mean “chat” is now referring to ChatGPT and not twitch chat? What? What? What the fuck? No?

When I address chat I am speaking to a presumed Greek chorus of real human people shitposting on their lunch break, not a machine that devours lakes to covert electricity into slop.

Is it that hard to accept that i need to do things in my way in my time and always have the whole time you've always known your whole lives why is it so hard to get the same respect you give in the space you've worked so hard to make your home why are we screaming why do i do this anymore

Breathe.

Find your space and breathe.

we tried so hard

to fight

when young?
