i'm not an alien i'm just autistic :)

“Contourting yourself into a shape you could have never possibly fit and doing it in silence as to not inconveniance others with our suffering."

"Sometimes one's darkest secrets are just common, well-documented symptom

It's like the population of a small country have been trying to contort themselves into a shape that they never could have possibly made, and they're doing it quietly, so as not to to inconvenience anyone with their suffering. Certain it's their fault for not understanding. Feeling like there's some distinct lack in them that could be repaired if only they tried harder."

I relate, I relate on a bunch of levels

You guys I just found out about this guy who made 3D printable files for adapters for game controllers to allow them to be used one handed! It’s so clever and easy and accessible, unlike other adaptive controllers. It just snaps onto a regular controller. The way the stick is controlled is damn genius. So much easier than trying to use your feet like other systems.

A friend is using one due to a stroke and as someone with problems from arthritis, this is so great to see, in case I get to the point I really can’t use my right hand.

Please share and give this guy some love, cause this is awesome.

You don't get to misgender people yes even if you think they're cringe (get over it), yes even if you don't understand it (get Over It), yes even if you think they're a terrible person (irrelevent), yes even if they have done objectively horrible harmful things (still irrelevent,) and yes, even if you think they "can't really know for sure" because of their disability (that's fucking ableist, shut your goddamn mouth.)

#youtube tried to push me ANOTHER fucking chr/is-chan video and I'm seeing red #i could literally talk for hours about the decades- plural- DECADES-long ABUSE campaign but its not really my fucking business.#i WILL bitch about the notion that disabled people somehow don't know themselves well enough to be trans. go to fucking hell #ableism mention

"you are HARASSING A CRIPPLE" ".....foot." "a shark ate it." for some reason this genre of humor (making everyone else vaguely uncomfortable by joking about your disability/bringing it up on every occasion a la "the weather is homophobic because it's inconveniencing me") is my favorite fucking thing. god i hope it continues. i hope izzy tells everyone he meets a different story about how he lost the leg (fought a lobster, cannonball incident, cursed by a witch, "what do you mean? my leg's right h--OH MY GOD"). i hope he has a spreadsheet entitled "jokes i can make now that i only have one leg". he's completely deadpan and no one knows whether they're allowed to laugh or not. it's great.

#izzy hands #ofmd #our flag means death #one of the few youtube people i watch is goodtimeswithscar and every time something like this happens i crack the fuck up #“i've invented a new way to play called handicap mode” “oh yeah. yeah. this'll be great for me.”#“you can't disable a friendship pass; i'm actually an expert in disability.”#“i'm great at running! ...that's a lie.”

Me: hm, I want something to put on the TV as background noise... Huh. Looks like YouTube is recommending something called The Last Unicorn. That's perfect, it's probably some old shitty animation that has aged poorly! I can watch it ironically!

Me, 2 hours later as the credits roll: *crying, cheering, buying the book, composing the songs*

Me, 2 weeks later: So I have compiled all of the quotes from the book that I think could make good tattoos, and also, HOW HAVE I NEVER LEARNED ABOUT HOW THE LAST UNICORN FUCKING SLAPS??? This gay-ass little fairytale fed my soul! Watered my crops! Transed my gender! Can't believe I heard of this story from youtube recommendations, of all places!!

#original #the last unicorn #tlu #peter s beagle #molly gru #schmendrick #schmendrick the magician #two of my favorite characters in anything right there in the center of the story! and I'm glad I saw the film first!#my reading ability has diminished due to trauma disability etc. but it seems like having a visual reference actually really helped!#no wonder i only ever want to read fan fic! turns out reading is not actually Superior to other types of Storytelling. it's just different.#to say otherwise is snobbishness I have been eminently guilty of in my life!#but like it is easier for me to consume tv and movies and that is fine actually. also that's why I'm doing a graphic novel lol #because i wanted to make something i would actually be able to read if i found it at a library. altho the audio book IS gonna be bomb #the audiobook is for visually impaired readers and anyone who wants or needs it! accessible stories for everyone! yeah!!#my gender was already transed but now I've gained an ADDITIONAL gender! which one? I'll never tell 😘#i am so powerful i have so much fuckin gender. my wife has no gender. and she is equally as powerful.#and also she has STUDIED THE BLADE #mostly zoro's blades from One Piece #normally YouTube recommends me shit movies like idiocracy or smth this is like if every day ur cat brought you a piece of rotten food and #then one day it brings you a BEAUTIFULLY ANIMATED TALE FEATURING MY BELOVED TWINK FUCK-UP WIZARD FRIEND AND MY ALL-TIME HOMEGIRL MOLLY GRU #and also it's soft and beautiful and funny and fucking weird!! i wrote melodies to the songs in the books on my ukulele

Did you know?

Searching for Cane Decorating (as in the mobility aid) gets you pages of results for Christmas craft videos. Even specifiying by adding the term "disability" or "mobility" still leaves you with a bunch of DIY home decor with cane webbing, for some reason.

So! Here's some videos to get you started on making your mobility aid reflect your personality:

youtube

First is this video featuring a lot of general discussion around mobility aids and being disabled, but does feature large sections for making your aids work for you in a fashionable way--including how to wear heels while using a cane!

youtube

Next, we have this short and sweet (under 5 mins.) aesthetically pleasing video on decorating a cane, that's not just using stickers or bedazzling. It's quite a unique end-product that I haven't seen with other mobility aid customizations.

EDIT NOTE: while the above creator is femme presenting, the result is pretty gender neutral and looks like a high fantasy elf's cane!

youtube

This is another video for decorating that isn't just stickers and bedazzling, but it's much longer than the previous vids with a lot of the YouTuber (Voice Actress Cari Favole) talking about their life and disability in the first 14 minutes before starting the customization.

youtube

Last off, is this video review about just buying a walking stick that is already fashionable and customized for you.

Do you know any other videos about making your mobility aid work with your fashion & personality that you love? Feel free to add them below!

people who add non-autogenerated subtitles to videos are the most attractive people on this planet and allowed to steal one (1) thing from my home. including a kiss

#if they’re competently done and timed well it can be open mouth #I love subtitles #i say ‘yippee!! yeehaw!’ and dance a little jig whenever I can watch a video with closed captioning on #NOT autogenerated subtitles though. proper ones #if you have a budget for a youtube video there is no reason to not add subtitles.#yes it’s time consuming but you can pay a professional to caption them. OR do it yourself #also if you deliberately turn off autogen captions and don’t supply a sufficient replacement then I get to steal something from your house #and it will not be a smooch. but it might be violent #auditory processing disorder #APD #disabilities #hoh #deaf #youtube #subtitles #shut up riley

You know what makes me sad?

It makes me sad, and not a little bit mad, that there are disabled people -- even those who are Disability Advocates -- who hate Disability Pride Month because they're convinced it was invented by normate people to make themselves feel better. I suspect that's because it follows directly after June's Queer Pride Month, and, if you are young enough to not remember the history for yourself ('cause we all know it's not being taught n schools), it can feel like a leftover crumb. But it is so, so, not.

If I were Queen of Calendars, I might move Disability Pride Month to April, to commemorate the 504 Sit-in of 1977, especially the occupation of the regional offices of Health, Education, and Welfare in San Fransisco, by over 500 people, mostly disabled (with their personal care assistants). The Occupation lasted 28 Days -- the longest protest occupation of a federal building in U.S. History. Since Queer Pride Month commemorates a protest, maybe Disability Pride Month should, too. The biggest knock against April is the weather is still iffy in much of the country for pride parades and outdoor gatherings.

(Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 was the legal predecessor of the ADA. And no, that's not a typo. Most of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 was passed in 1973, but the one section that outlined rights for the disabled was put to the side, and ignored for four whole years, because it was deemed to be too expensive and confusing to extend civil rights to disabled people. It was the Sit-In in 1977 that finally pushed President Carter to sign it, and make it law).

Here's a retrospective report on the Sit-In from CBS news, that aired in the '80s (Auto-generated captions):

(the video is 6 minute, 12 seconds. But the news report ends at 5 minutes 42 seconds)

It doesn't get better.

One of the things I like about Jessica Kellgren-Fozzard is that she is honest about her disability, including the bad days. Most of her videos are very well-produced with her looking her very fashionable best and if you didn’t know she had a chronic illness, you wouldn’t know it. But she also will occasionally do videos like this, where she’s obviously feeling like shit and she doesn’t edit out the ADHD-digressions and just ... talks about the reality of being disabled.

So it’s not “oh, she’s disabled, but she doesn’t let it slow her down/she has overcome it!” It’s, “oh, she’s disabled, and she manages her disabilities well, and that doesn’t change the fact that she has multiple serious impairments.”

I have always loved Maysoon. I was first introduced to her through a Ted Talk seemingly ages ago. Some of you may have seen this, but if not, here it is:

This is the original video, and she has a tiktok account, so please take a look at her content and support her!! She's been doing advocacy work for years.
