if you care about disabled people at all, please put whatever money you can where your mouth is, i'm disabled and desperately need my partner with me long term, but that costs money to get a legal partnership arranged, please help https://gofund.me/580dbcb4

sorry, time for another angry cripple post, if you're able bodied and earning enough to not be living paycheck to paycheck, you should be donating money to people who need it, disabled people, sex workers, trans people, you have a responsibility to make up for the shortfalls in society and make the world kinder. other disabled people with no income have given me more than i could ever have asked them for, you can do better

"on a good day I can get around with just my walking stick am I really disabled?" Yes, yes you are you doofus, you have genuinely collapsed from pain before, had your knee dislocate and force you to use a knee brace for two weeks because of a badly formed cartilage, it's all disability. I just wish it was easier to remind myself

One thing that sucks about having 'only' chronic pain, fatigue, and a neurological disorder is that I constantly feel like I'm faking disability, that I shouldn't be speaking about it with the same verve and certainty as say, someone who has lost both legs and has to use a wheelchair 24/7, and I know this is silly because just as often I do need the same accomodation, but god I hate feeling like I don't measure up

Mandating wheelchair friendly building in Minecraft, better start incorporating ramps into your builds, and say goodbye to ladders

I'm a bitter and vindictive disabled person, sue me, but I think it would be funny for able bodied people to get to experience the inconvenience of disability occasionally

Here's a fun thought: Minecraft mod for disabilities. And not just cosplaying via having like, a wheelchair or walking stick you can equip at your leisure. Actual random, permanent disability that can hit your character at any time. Like whoops, from now on, on this server, you walk at 1/4 speed unless there's a walking stick in your off hand, or oopsy, now your character can only move between different seat mounts like chairs and wheelchairs, and you can't jump or mantle one block heights

And now I'm going to have a strong cup of coffee which won't do anything to make me feel more alert at all

Ah, that fun chronic illness staple of "I just got out of bed, I'm so tired"

They should make a getting out of bed that isn't hard and cold
