Are you fucking me
walkable cities also means sittable cities send tweet
some people are responding to this like its a joke and im going to assume u are the type of people to say "its only a 3 minute walk" when i tell them the nearest bench is too far away
also anyone who thinks "3 minutes isnt THAT bad" you will be old one day. and you will wish the bench was closer
walkable cities also means cities with free accessible public bathrooms whilst we're at it
Not that there's anything wrong with having something wrong with you
Certified disability aid positivity post!
[ID: A colorful illustration with the words "I love disability aids" in bold, rainbow-gradient text surrounded by various assistive items. These include a crutch, headphones, hearing aid, wrist brace, ice pack, disposable face mask, and a pill bottle. The background features colorful sparkles and dots. /end ID]
i do not want to live in the fucking panopticon fuck the camera that blinks above me at work, the tv watching me at the store, the "smile you're on camera" signs, the ring cameras, the flock cameras, the apps to track your child or partner, the activist friends telling me "just assume everything you do in public is being recorded somewhere", the government building protester databases, the teslas recording every move all around them, the knowledge that everything i type or search or save is being tracked and logged, the ads and search suggestions that mysteriously know what i was just talking about, the way biometrics keep creeping into more places, the way my car spies on me, the way my phone spies on me, the way there is nowhere to go to get away from it!!! no wonder the internet is full of vindictive little stalkers and witchhunts when it's the water and the air of society from the culture to the infrastructure
We can take control back! Community mapping projects using free open source software let you add where surveillance cameras are. I often take walks through new areas and observe the buildings to spot the bastards. When you do it, you find out there are more blind spots that you think. If you have a good map of public cameras you can avoid them or tell people about them. Or other things :)

I do love the thought of body swap stories that highlight when characters have like, chronic pain or other bodily issues
Like two characters swap bodies and one immediately turns to the other and is just like "You really need glasses, man", and the other one's just like "Holy shit I can see"
Bonus points if 1) Character A has been downplaying their issues big time and Character B is hit by it like a ton of bricks and "Dude, ow, you should've said it was this bad!"
Or 2) Character B has been kinda dismissive of it like "Oh, don't exaggerate, it can't be that bad" and then they find out exactly how bad it is firsthand

I think one of the most annoying aspects of having a bulky mobility aid is that you completely lose the right to wander. Almost everywhere you go is "in the way" to someone so if you go somewhere and then change your mind and go back it's treated as if you're being rude and disruptive when it wouldn't be seen as an issue if someone who doesn't have a bulky mobility aid did it. It's just normal human behaviour to change your mind sometimes. This is doubly an issue when you needed assistance getting there, there's an intense pressure to stick with every single decision you make that doesn't apply to everyone else, and it makes every trip out in public so stressful.
Hey babes!
Take your meds, drink your water, change your position if you haven't in a while, and remember that I love you!
"But what if people will pretend to need this accessibility option so they can be lazy! People who don't need it will use it!!" I don't actually care
I dont care if 9/10 of the people who use the wheelchair ramp arent actually in wheelchairs. As long as the 1 person who needs it has access to it.
I dont care if 9/10 people who use the automatic push button on the library door can actually push the door open themselves. As long as the 1 person who the door is too heavy for gets to use it.
I dont care if 9/10 people who buy the can tab opener, or the little guitar clamp that holds the chords for you, or the hand grip that helps you hold chop sticks, don't need any of it and just get it to "be lazy". As long as the one disabled person who needs it gets access to it.
I do not care. Oh my GOD I do not care. As long as there's a disabled person on this planet who the accessibility device will benefit, the accessibility device is necessary.
Also, if you're so worried about people being "lazy" by using accessibility devices, MORE worried than you are about disabled (visibly or not) people not having access to them, you have unchecked ableism you need to work through.

Me waiting for the pain relief gel to dry:
day 6 / ???
this is really interesting in how it frames disability/low spoons/etc as not being a series of internal symptoms, but specifically a situation in which daily tasks increase in complexity. for example i used to be able to wash the dishes normally. but now mental and physical issues combine to make that situation have a lot of prequalifications (do I have time, energy, how long can I do it without being sore the next day) that means many more steps are involved in getting that single physical act of washing a dish to be done.
I’m trying to remember the quote. “On a good day, doing laundry is three steps. On a bad day, the first step is getting out of bed.”
Everyone is fighting a tough battle so reblog to give previous a sword 🗡️
