Wishing all undiagnosed/partially diagnosed people a very doctors listening to you and providing you with more testing than a blood draw and even possibly providing treatment 2024
I’m obsessed with the fact that multiple times this season now we’ve gotten to see buddie fights play out specifically with Eddie throwing around the “you make things all about you” line and I will always maintain that that does not reflect absolute reality (although Buck can be self centered sometimes, as can we all) but is actually Eddie saying, I resent that you can so easily allow yourself to be loud and obvious about your pain while I MUST™️ lock mine away deep inside and I can only let it out under the guise of anger at you (my best friend who I know will forgive me) I love them both so much 🥰

if they get rid of the department of education, that means IEPs and 504s will no longer be federally enforced, instead the state will be given the choice. states can just say it is up to the schools whether or not accommodations are respected, allowing schools to get away with ableism. this is just one of the ways the Trump administration is taking away disabled rights.
I'm lucky because I am graduating high school, but there are so many disabled students who will no longer be protected. call your rep. protest.
Useful information
True lmaoooo
there is NOTHING like the rage of searching for a post you KNOW is on your blog with a highly specific phrase and then not only can this website not find it but tumblr says something fucking stupid like ‘please don’t be mad. please’
Unemployed Person: "No one will hire me because of my tattoos and my drug use."
Conservatives: "That's your own fault. They can hire whoever they want. It's your duty to make yourself employable."
Unemployed Person: "No one will hire me because I didn't get the covid vaccine."
Conservatives: "THAT'S THE EPITOME OF INJUSTICE! YOUR PLACE OF WORK HAS NO RIGHT TO DICTATE WHAT YOU DO WITH YOUR BODY!"
I wanted to share some etiquette for simplifying something down for someone with a cognitive/intellectual disability
you are simplifying the information down, not sharing your opinion
if I ask for a news article to be simplified down and you tell me "they're doing fascist things" that's unhelpful. I want to know what they're doing not what you think about what they're doing.
you should be objective with it
if an article is talking about, say, a new proposed bill in Congress an example of an appropriate way to summarize would be:
"this is what the bill is proposing
this is how the article says it will affect people
this is what the author thinks about it"
and then you can start talking about your opinion
we have a right to form our own opinions about information. if the only thing you share is your opinion you're denying us that right. when simplifying language you are a translator. think of yourself as a translator.
Is it a headmate? Is it a fragment? Is it a facet? Is it a persona? Am I subconsciously masking? Am I subconsciously/involuntarily otherlinking/copinglinking? Is it a kinshift? Is it a ’flicker? Is it age regression? Is it a mood? Is it impulsivity? Is it an intrusive thought that I’m reacting to? Is it genderfluidity? Is it pronoun/namefluidity?
Who knows! Who cares! I don’t need to stress about this, it doesn’t matter! It’s a mode that the “I” is in, the way I feel in that moment! And I will make a pluralkit/tupperbox for it so I can express myself and decide the rest later! Or never! These labels are a construct! Personhood itself is a construct! I don’t need to box myselves! I can just live!
Just to talk and enjoy my stuff. I have two side blogs ;) Read my pinned post ! Humans are fascinating
