turns out you can get nearly a hundred boosts and a bunch of replies agreeing with you about the pain and difficulties disabled people face, and yet no contributions/donations to making an actual disabled person's life a little easier, funny how that works. surely i didn't cross the dash of all 200 disabled people on the fediverse and nobody able bodied and with money to spare...
well this is quite possibly the most interaction i've ever had with a post. if you're able bodied and not living in poverty, please consider contributing to our gofundme to allow my partner/carer to move to the uk to live with me full time https://gofund.me/174a4791
anyway, on happier topics, i left all my dart blasters at home in the uk when we came to brazil for 2 months, but i'm genuinely itching to mod something, and i'm considering getting one cheap here and then letting my fiancee's nephew have it when we leave. i guess i probably shouldn't increase the power if i do that
"why do they need to do weeks of work and close this entrance to install a stupid ramp" because i promise you that you will need that ramp eventually, you will curse and moan at every flight of stairs someday, you will hate the way the world was built for you when you were young and now doesn't serve your tired old bones, and i will laugh, and i'll still help you get up those stairs, but it will be vindicating.
you know, this feels like a fun time to remind those of you able bodied out there, ally or not, you will be disabled eventually, unless you die very young. it might take 40 years for your hips to give out, or you might have a lifechanging accident in the next 30 minutes, but don't think you're better than me just because i've been disabled since i was a teenager. you'll know what it's like eventually. maybe start advocating for us now while you have working legs and arms and eyes
re: sex work, blue sky questions
cause i'll be honest, if a platform doesn't allow sex workers under any circumstances, i consider it discriminatory, not just because a large proportion of poor trans women do sex work to survive, amongst other reasons, but because i can't get behind treating sex workers like that, cis or trans
sex work, blue sky questions
you know, something that i just realized i don't know, are sex workers welcome on bluesky? like, are they allowed to be on there and post about sex work, assuming it's properly tagged, etc. because i've seen so many informative, good toots from sex workers on here and i have to wonder if that's why i don't get the appeal of blue sky

@mavica_again the numbers!
reminder to people that twitter was already hostile to left wing activists and minorities long before musk took over, and moderation often sided with bigots and fascists frequently during the 'good' days, any project founded to try and recreate pre-musk twitter is going to suppress civil rights movements and minority complaints, bluesky is not the promised land

occasionally nsfw, always cw'd
If you've been blocked by me and don't know why, it's likely you or an account you have boosted posts nude men, cw'd or not, and I am committed to not seeing that under any circumstances
I am prone to bouts of grumpiness and bad moods due to chronic pain and fatigue
