my daily affirmation as an author
This all started with the realisation that Natsu is the fish profile kinda guy
In case anyone finds it helpful because mobility aids are horrifically expensive and inaccessible…
And for those people who have access to mobility devices but might benefit from a second chair they can abuse without risking expensive damage…
Erik Kondo has made a website, Open Source Innovations, that details plans for DIY wheelchairs. These wheelchairs can be made from common materials like wood, plastic, and pvc. They are lightweight and can be custom fit to the user allowing from the same degree of movement you would get from a custom chair. And they are durable and easily repairable. (he has been stress testing his latest design by dropping it down stairs, dropping it out of a car, launching it across a driveway, and throwing it off a deck). Its 12lbs and I think he said its was in the $200 ish range for parts.
He also is working on cheap, open source, accessible designs for beach chairs, off road chairs, motorized attachments (think smart drive), and so on. Plus he skateboards in his wheelchair. Cool dude, helpful info, pass it on.
It's incredibly sad people have to resort to this, but it's a damn good resource. Use it. Spread awareness. Maybe one day people with physical disabilities won't need DIYs like this. But until then, reblog and share.
This is Accessibility!
That's so amazing! It is unfortunate that so many people will need this, but very very cool that it exists
That other link seems to be broken.
Thank you so much for putting the working one!
I will add it to my original reblog as well.
You know, every time I draw something stupid, I think to myself "surely I can't top this!" And then somehow I draw something even dumber
Edit: NOOO NOO WHY IS THIS GETTING NOTES??? STOP IT!! ONLY LIKE 10 PEOPLE WERE SUPPOSED TO SEE THIS AND THEN ID BURY IT UNDER MY REPOSTS NOOO
"there is no way you're not using chatgpt for at least a few things here and there no matter your stance on it" what the FUCK are you talking about
Yeah. Never ever in my life have I used it.
I cannot stress enough that I fundamentally distrust callout posts, and I will distrust you if you send them to me.
Don't get me wrong: I investigate warnings, and I act on them if they're true and relevant. But callout posts are, on a very fundamental level, not about what people say they're about. There are exceptions, but generally speaking they're made for one or more of the following reasons:
OP didn't like the subject to begin with (often for bigoted reasons), and they wanted a reason, and a following, to justify and validate that.
OP wanted to gain popularity, so they made themselves look like either a victim, a hero, or both.
OP wanted to claim victim status in a private falling-out in order to preserve good standing with their own friends/their community.
OP didn't like what the subject was saying, and wanted to silence them (often for bigoted reasons).
OP genuinely just wants "revenge" on the subject, or otherwise wants to ruin their reputation and have them sent harassment.
Again, there are exceptions: there are "callouts" that just unravel a subject's lies, or point out problems in already public actions. If OP is claiming to have been personally victimized in a legitimately serious way, and especially one that indicates the subject might be a danger to others, I'm definitely more willing to believe it- one obvious example being sexual violence.
But oftentimes, callouts are incredibly personal, misleading, emotionally manipulative, blatantly untrue, or all of the above.
This person came to me on anon; I have absolutely no way of knowing what their motives are or how trustworthy they are. There is no credibility or accountability here.
And I did read the post. Lo and behold, it's riddled with emotionally manipulative language, false accusations, and the biggest reaches I've ever seen:
"DON'T READ THIS CALLOUT, IT'S SO TRIGGERING TO EVERYONE, JUST TAKE MY WORD FOR IT. But the proof is here if you REALLY don't believe me"
"Proof" is a scarce handful of screenshots taken out of context that contain emotionally evocative language, but do not support the accusations at all.
Some accusations are genuinely just weird logic leaps with no support, others are matters of personal opinion obviously driven by bigoted motives.
OP themselves expresses very publicly that they believe people who are marginalized in the ways the subject are, who speak on that marginalization, should be silenced.
I try to assume good faith here, and I want to believe this anon was just guilt-tripped and manipulated by the post in question. I don't hold any ill will here.
But anon, I want you to ask yourself:
Are the accusations you're making something you have personally investigated and found to be true?
Does this person deserve the harassment and ostracization they will likely receive as a result of your accusations?
Will you hold yourself accountable for the damage you've caused if you're wrong?
And if you're absolutely certain you're right, come off anon and talk to me as a human being; because I can't believe you're ready to be accountable for these accusations if you won't even put your Tumblr blog behind them.
I've had actual, honest-to-god callout blogs reblogging this post like "yeah I research all the claims here!! they're real and you can trust me (:" as if the entire purpose of their blog is not to encourage their followers not to check those claims themselves, not to think critically about why those claims are made in the first place, & to just rely on random strangers to tell them how to think and who to completely ostracize from potentially vital communities, support systems, and resources.
I cannot emphasize enough that if you spread "callout posts" as a fucking hobby, this post is explicitly about you.
I'm more of a Funny Bunny (Pomni x Jax) shipper

Here's how you make noai.duckduckgo.com your default search engine so you don't have to toggle the filter on every time you do a search:
1) Make sure your Firefox is up to date.
2a) Go to the website and right click in the search field and select 'Add Search Engine' and confirm with 'Add Engine':
OR!
2b) Go into Firefox's settings and under Search, scroll down until you find the option to manually add a search engine:
And the URL you'll want to enter is https://noai.duckduckgo.com/?t=h_&q=%s
3) Either way, you will now have to scroll to the top of your Search settings in Firefox and then change your Default Search Engine to the one you just added.
As for other browsers... I don't have a clue, fuck Chrome in particular.
May you never happen upon an ugly ass AI slop baby animal again.
The chances of a boss fight against Jesus Christ in a God of War game are low, but never zero. And the possibility increases ever so slightly at every new entry.
pride month!!!

Pride for you! Pride for a thousand years!!
you COME OUT to miette? you come out to her as queer? oh! oh! pride for mother! pride for mother for One Thousand Years!!!!
Okay, so this post always makes me giggle
But I was thinking just now...
Literally no one in the friend group aside from Aang knows Zuko was the Blue Spirit
So do you think... they're just hanging out in the palace post canon all piled up in one of the rooms reserved for when the royal family wants to chill—and Zuko is voicing his (extremely reasonable) upset about his father for one reason or another
And Sokka just says something like, "So are you gonna just leave him to rot in jail for the rest of his life, or are you gonna give him another punishment?"
And Zuko goes quiet. Thinking. Then he says, "Maybe I should send him on a quest to capture the Blue Spirit to regain his honor"
And Aang just fucking loses it
Katara asks "Wha's so funny?"
Aang explains "There's a smaller chance of success for Ozai than Zuko trying to find the Avatar." Giggle. "It'll take years before he realizes that-"
Zuko "The blue spirit died in the complex under the lake in ba sing se. My uncle saw it."
SEVERAL HOURS LATER
Toph "I don't know who the blue spirit is, but i know you lied about him dying. EXPLAIN!"
Z "It's a... TIME SKIP ... And then i threw the mask in the water."
T "You should totally sen your dad after him. can i go with him to make sure he stays on target and away from here?"
Z "...Okay?"
[ID: Tumblr screenshot: @fireflaked: "would zuko give the blue spirit a full pardon after the war is over or do you think he would mess with everyone and raise the bounty even higher" @chevaliermalfets: @toph-beif0ng: "fire lord zuko sends ozai to capture the blue spirit to regain his honor." End ID.]
...
OK, folks in the comments were asking for fic links, so here are the two I was able to find: "Dishonor on Ozai's Cow" and "Wild Spirit Chase." (I think there are more I've read, but my search-fu was not strong enough to find them.)
What I love about Adrienette is when Adrien is being victimized, Mari is righteous when defending him as expected- while when Marinette is being victimized Adrien is like. Ok so. I am going to kill you.
