Shoutout to people with arthritis, specially kids who have to deal with it the whole life.

It’s very hard to live with it, it’s worse without medication,

And very welcome to the disabled community.

i really do believe that psychological and neurodevelopmental conditions can cause physical disability. (tourettes causing pain and fatigue, schizophrenia causing catatonia, anxiety causing heart problems, autism and dyspraxia causing motor skill issues, etc...) many conditions can be both mentally and physically disabling.

but it feels disingenuous to describe yourself as "crippled by a psychological/neurodevelopmental disorder" while entirely avoiding calling yourself Physically Disabled.

the principles of cripplepunk specificies the exclusion of abled bodies and acknowledgement of the intersection between mental and physical disability.

cripplepunk is specifically stated to be by and for physically disabled people, so if you do not consider yourself to be physically disabled and you use the word "cripple", you are not cripplepunk. you are ableist.

It's so bittersweet when someone tells us they hope we feel better soon upon seeing our braces & cane, assuming we have a sports injury or something </3 it's very kind of them to send well wishes, and we appreciate that, but in the back of our head we know this is chronic and that it's forever and that it's only going to get worse, and those well wishes serve as a reminder of this fate

I don’t care about who the fuck you are, or what disability you have, whether it’s physical or not; I don’t care if your disability is worse than mine or than other disabled people— if you talk shit about disabled people who are quite literally visibly deformed because of their medical conditions (me) and you make fun of our bodies????

#personal #honey you’ve got a big storm coming #if ANYONE says shit about me being deformed they are next on the list I swear to fucking god #I’ll hand your ass back to you #I’ll getcha 🩴#cripple punk #actually crippled #chronic pain #chronic illness #deformed #arthritis #scoliosis

Sometimes, it’s really, really hard not to have a huge ego, you know???

I’ve talked about “Margret” on my blog before, one of our kids at the daycare who has been with us over two years now and having just the worst imaginable stuff happen even before that.

I haven’t been able to work much with her since May, which breaks my heart, but oh my stars my girl!!!

💕🌟💕🌟💕

This time last year, we were still worried she wouldn’t recover from her seizures and erratic brain activity period.

The start of this year, we weren’t sure she’d be able to sit unsupported. That she’d been left profoundly blind was also unavoidable.

And now??

My girl is walking!!! 🥰

She still doesn’t have the stability to do it unsupported, but she’ll find a wall, be up like nothing, and just cruise around until she finds the gate to outside and stand there and whine if she’s in the mobile baby room because she’s been visiting the toddler room and that place is so much more fun!!

She’ll seek out people, and just use them to stand and then walk away while holding their hands so they have to follow.

I only get a few minutes of cuddles with her every few nights when there’s the right balance of the number of kids at closing and her parents pick up late enough, since I’m stuck up front watching the oldest kids and the secured front entrance.

Today, I was able to justify sneaking in to the mobile room for a ten minute break, sat next to her, and started singing.

Like usual, she instantly zeroed in on me and climbed up to stand on my lap and bearhug me, alternately hanging over my shoulder because she’s gotten so tall and jumping in delight on my leg because she’s so tall she can’t safely use her beloved jumper anymore (at least she has a door-hanging one at home…).

I’m thinking nothing of this, since this is our routine on those rare ten minutes together in the evenings.

Her day teachers, however???

They’re both gaping at us, shocked.

Apparently they haven’t seen Margaret stay in one place so long unless she was complaining at the gate or else exhausted on the floor.

She’s only had this level of mobility a few months, and apparently she resents not exercising it as much as her energy level allows.

Unless it means cuddles with me.

Apparently.

Yeah, sometimes it’s really, really hard not to develop an inflated ego, that even after months of barely being able to be with this legally blind girl I’m still her favorite snuggler in the entire daycare center. 🤷‍♀️

#tales from the daycare #i’m just so ecstatic for her #she is so so smart #and so so determined #and i can’t wait for her #to finally be able to get a walker she can use at the center #and not completely trample every othet child here….#allyship #actually crippled #actually blind

not self diagnosed culture, but something has confused me: when you have been asked about visible disability, you specified glasses. do you believe that glasses are aids?

Glasses are aids! We are physically disabled, and one of our disabilities is poor eyesight. Our disability aids to help our eyesight are contacts and glasses.

The way you worded this confuses me a bit though haha,

only i am allowed to be upset about being disabled. not the people who refused to believe i was. not the people who refused to accommodate me. not the people who chose to forget to make it easier for themselves. not the people who got rid of accommodations because they were getting in their way. not them, me.

it is so exhausting to live in a body that’s not able to do as i want. try as it might, my body cannot jump, cannot run, cannot do the things i wish it could.

it isn’t my body’s fault. i remind myself of that constantly.

it isn’t my body’s fault that the home i found in it feels more like a prison these days. so i try not to hate it. i try to cope and make jokes and pretend that it doesn’t sting when i can’t do things i used to be good at anymore, like ballet and basketball.

but some days i just want to run again. and my body is no longer able. and that’s okay but it still hurts.

I love having stress induced seizures.

I'm so glad that, according to people online, they're not a "real" disability. They're "just a neurodivergence/medication side effect that never went away". I wouldn't have them if I hadn't been on abilify as a kid, and those are psych meds, so my seizures aren't a "real physical disability". The spinal cord injury I have from having a seizure during a spinal tap at age 11 also isn't a "real physical disability" for that reason, apparently.

It would be nice if that meant that they didn't affect my heart rhythm or cause dislocations and concussions. It would be great, too, if I could walk normally again and if I didn't have constant chronic pain and sciatica.

It's almost like some neurological conditions are actually physically disabling. Crippling, even.

But nope. My seizures and spinal cord injury started with a bipolar medication so I'm not really crippled. Just another stupid neurodivergent psycho who's too crazy to be respected by people who have similar experiences to mine because I don't count. I should just go kill myself so that the world will be right because I am an offense to humanity by trying to get help for my seizure disorder like it's a physical disability, whenever really, it's not.

This entire post is sarcastic by the way. I'm just still a little salty about the fact that I had a literal stress-induced seizure because some fascist piece of shit wanted to try to claim that I'm not really disabled and that I'm a bad person for not liking ableist assholes.

#actually crippled #actually disabled #actually neurodivergent #actually physically disabled #ableism #seizures #spinal cord injury #bipolar #abilify #medical malpractice #it's almost like I'm physically disabled partially because of people being ableist due to my mental health conditions #it's almost like if you take someone with a disability & treat them like shit & abuse them eventually their body is going to fail #it's almost like there's more crossover between physical disabilities and neurodivergencies than people are willing to admit right now #this entire post is sarcastic by the way

im so sick of physically abled people describing their disorders/symptoms/experiences as "crippling".

crippled does not mean profoundly disabled and not all cripples are profoundly disabled.

yes im sure your experiences are debilitating, disabling, profound, etc... but unless your symptoms manifest physically in a way that disables you (which isnt exclusive to physical illnesses), you are not crippled.

you do not need to use a slur to demonstrate severity, especially not a slur has very little to do with severity in the first place.

Today I had the spoons to hunt down my neighborhood council's email and send them an email that basically said "I would like to be able to leave my house but my neighborhood is not wheelchair accessible. Who do I talk to in order to get this fixed?" And I am planning on hunting down whoever is in charge of sidewalks in my neighborhood and getting real annoying about it.

My plan is to email them every time I want to go somewhere but can't.

Email 1: hello, please fix sidewalks so I can ride the bus places I am very passionate about public transportation and also being able to leave my house.

Email 200: This morning I woke up and wanted some delicious coffee to start my day, but upon getting out of bed I discovered we were out of coffee. I would've liked to take advantage of the city's public transportation system in order to support a local business like [examples of local coffee shops] but alas I cannot because I am a wheelchair user and my neighborhood is not wheelchair accessible. [Insert rest of arguement RE accessibility]. In conclusion I don't work I can keep these emails coming until I die please just fix my sidewalks.

This is going to be my new spite hobby. I was already mad about the abuse and general shit hand the disabled get dealt in our culture but then I started using a wheelchair and places like doctor's offices have been inaccessible to me so now I am filled with rage. So I am going to take that rage and do something with it. Like emailing my city counsel representatives at 2 am like "I crave a moonlight walk fix my sidewalks please."
