Re: shortened posts

Tumblr texted me. The problem is more complex then the actually thought. It will take a while to be fixed

Is anyone else experiencing shortened posts even though the button to do that is turned off? This has been a problem for me since the most recent iOS update. I’ve done everything I can think of to fix it, including turning it on and off, logging out/in with various settings changes, and deleting and reinstalling. Nothing works. Any tips?

a shorter version of the last post

As disabled people, we learn early that it’s our job to protect abled people from ever having to notice either the logistical problems or the hate we face. And especially, we learn not to show that it hurts us. And double especially, we learn that we are not allowed to tell friends or caregivers or ~nice ladies~ or others that they are hurting us. And triple especially, we learn that we are not allowed to be angry because that’s ~just the way it is~ and ~people don’t understand~.

I think that protecting abled people from having to notice disability and ways we are harmed as disabled people goes so deep we do it automatically and without noticing most of the time. And abled people *really* don’t notice, because they think it’s normal and natural and have not had any need to challenge it. They feel completely entitled not to have to deal with disability, and the entitlement feels so natural that they don’t even *notice*. And we don’t notice how much we protect them, either.

I'm not sure what to do about that. I would like to start unlearning it, but I'm not sure how. Have any of y'all found ways?
