reminder: just because a disabled person has accommodations does not mean they will perform at the same level or have the same capabilities as a non-disabled person! accommodations are there to make life easier for the disabled person, but they don’t erase the fact that we are disabled. as an employer, parent, peer, etc. you must be open to the possibility that a disabled person will be DISABLED by their condition. if you only see accommodations as an excuse to expect the same from a disabled person as you would from a non-disabled person, you are not the ally you think you are

some reminders as we go from queer pride month into disabled pride month:

queer disabled people exist! we're not special rare unicorns collecting shit that "makes us special"

a lot of queer events aren't disability-friendly and a lot of disabled events aren't queer-friendly, sort yourselves out because once again, queer disabled people exist

queer liberation and disabled liberation are connected, you can't have one without the other

queers don't have a monopoly on pride, disabled pride month existing isn't appropriating fuck all from queer people

abled queers: please stop centring yourselves in july by calling it queer pride month 2.0, disabled pride month is already way less visible and you're not helping

the queer community has an ableism problem and the disabled community has a queerantagonism problem, leaving queer disabled people feeling unsafe and unwelcome in either and being stuck in tiny fringe communities

it's not "pride month and disabled pride month". disabled pride month is literally also pride month. june is QUEER pride month. again, queers don't have a monopoly on pride, queer pride is not the default

july is not wrath month, it is pride month

stop using "autistic" as an insult for queer people you don't like

queer disabled people are awesome

[wheelie-sick]

happy disability pride month to everyone who will not be seeing a positivity post for their condition this month because their condition is too rare

you deserve to have pride in your disability. you deserve to be supported for your disability. I see you and I love you. you are never too rare

we need to stop equating lack of independence with lack of maturity. people that live with their parents or have a caregiver or don't work or need more support than others aren't inherently immature. there's lots of reasons why people would be in this situation, even outside of disability (plenty of cultures out there expect people to live with their parents past what we consider the beginning of adulthood), and regardless of the reason we deserve support and community through what is already likely to be an isolating experience. don't make it worse for us

[smoov-criminal]

expanding this to include people who can't/don't drive

the right hairstyle for your face is the one that makes you smile when you see yourself in the mirror btw.

[vamptits]

this applies to clothing as well!!! being happy and comfortable with yourself is ALWAYS more important than adhering to some stupid made up rules about body types. shave your head. wear the crop top.

asians: pls care about racism against us

[quinnfebrey]

like literally the fact that this has 9 notes (and most other posts abt asian american rep i’ve seen, rbed, or written have similar amounts), is proving my point. every time i reblog or post anything about racism agains asians, i can literally see everyone scrolling past it. not even given a performative like. are y’all consciously ignoring it or are you truly just that desensitized to racism against asians?

[madsinactivelol]

May I add:

Dont fetishize asians.

Dont make coronavirus jokes about asians. (Yes, it’s still happening, and it’s still a problem.)

Dont like?? Stereotype asians? Not every asian you’re going to meet is good at math or lives on a diet of rice, that’s just rude as hell and wrong

[reihara-deactivated20220417]

Exactly. Speak up for everyone.

Keep the same energy for racism against all asians as we do with other races. That includes more than just east asians. Asia is more than China, Japan and Korea.

And I see y'all, you’re really selective about the shit y'all reblog from me. This should have more than one reblog.

There has been a sharp increase of AAPI hate crimes ever since the pandemic (especially in the Bay Area if you live in the United States). If you’re going to be an advocate for Asians, please don’t forget to include Southeast Asians, South Asians, Western Asians, Central Asians, and our Pacific Islander cousins in your activism. As well as mixed Asians, too, especially if they’re not white passing

Y'all I know that when so-called AI generates ridiculous results it's hilarious and I find it as funny as the next guy but I NEED y'all to remember that every single time an AI answer is generated it uses 5x as much energy as a conventional websearch and burns through 10 ml of water. FOR EVERY ANSWER. Each big llm is equal to 300,000 kiligrams of carbon dioxide emissions.

LLMs are killing the environment, and when we generate answers for the lolz we're still contributing to it.

Stop using it. Stop using it for a.n.y.t.h.i.n.g. We need to kill it.

can we talk about how this is even more annoying when websites start forcing AI on us even though we didn't FUCKING ASK (@ meta)

like, you stole my art. you stole my writing. and now you're making me fuck up the environment even though i DIDN'T FUCKING ASK

It's actually really frightening to see officially sanctioned genocide denial rise up in Western countries in real time. Like, I remember 20 years ago hearing about how it was illegal in Turkey to point out that the Armenian Genocide happened, and how I thought that that was fucking evil and oppressive. Now here we are, with a campaign in Gaza that experts have called 'a textbook case of genocide', for which the UN Human Rights counsel has determined there are "reasonable grounds" to call it genocide, and the US Congress is trying to make it illegal to criticize Israel. We have Hollywood agencies refusing to represent anyone who points out that a genocide is currently taking place. And it's just the same shit from a fresh asshole as we got from the Turkish government over what happened in Armenia in the 1920s, like "Oh yes, there were killings, but...calling it genocide? Ohhhh, you must be very hateful to our poor little nation to think that our people are capable of that 😢 😭!" Fuck off.

also friendly reminder that you are allowed to just leave. if a place, situation or person isn't healthy for you and you have the ability to leave: do it. you are never obligated to stay somewhere or with someone that's hurting you.
