Hey everyone!  I have a rare skin condition that presented itself spontaneously at birth. Without getting too much into it, it causes me a lot of problems in the hotter weather months which includes but is not limited to flare ups, extreme skin sensitivity, and painful heat and friction blisters. It can get so bad that every year there are days in the summer where I can’t leave the house, wear clothes, or even move because of the pain. I’m also sensitive to the sun. I technically qualify for disability but it’s not enough to live on. There’s no cure and not many treatments, but through having this condition my entire life I’ve learned a lot about how to manage it. I have to buy special soaps and lotions, as well as restrict myself to certain types of clothes when the summer months come. This stuff can get very costly.  I’m not in an emergency situation but I do have a lot of home expenses and we just bought an air conditioner for the house, which is going to make our energy bill skyrocket. If anyone would be willing to donate a few bucks here and there to my Paypal, it would really help me out immensely! I hate to beg but it’ll really, really improve my quality of life as a disabled person.  Don’t mind the dead name!

It's bizarre seeing people in their 40s or 50s, older people who should be wiser, who don't understand that impact is greater than intent, who think that "yes, I hurt people but I didn't mean it so I can't hold myself accountable and they have to forgive me" is true or appropriate at all.

Intent isn't meaningless and may or may not be taken into account, but "I didn't MEAN to hurt you" doesn't un-break bones or undo traumas.

Is there anyone awake? I'm having an episode of some kind and I'm very scared and I would really like some help.

I love my friends to death or whatever but am I the only one who hates when cis people tag me in stuff like this? It feels condescending, performative, and in some cases really infantalizing. :/
