hello! im currently extremely irritated so tumblr is getting a list!
Things not to say to Disabled People:
"Your don't look disabled" not everyone who is disabled will actively look disabled, most wont actually.
"You have to tell me when i mess up, im not ableist" no. it is not disabled peoples job to tell you when you fuck up. i do tell people, cause im a fucking pushover who cant say no when they ask me too! just, dont.
"'referring to a mobility aid' your too young for that/your taking it away from somebody who needs it" no. nobody is too young they have it for a reason. if they have it they are not taking it away from people who need it they are one of the people who need it.
"I bet i would be fine if i had that, no offense" yes i have heard this genuinely. offense taken, do not pretend you could handle a disability that you have no clue what its like. I dont care if you have a high pain tolerance, you have yet to experience a 24/7 horrible pain. fuck your stupid pain tolerance.
I am very upset rn, if you cant tell. Please just stop doing this shit. its getting harder and harder each day to pretend someone close to me isnt repetitively being ableist and blaming it on joking or mental health issues.

Accessible housing
I was just looking online at houses for sale in my area and decided to try to look for accessible housing to get an idea of what is available in my area, bc i'm going to need an accessible place to live when I finish uni. I noticed a few things:
the number of property websites that don't allow you to specify needs, such as level access and accessible bathrooms, is infuriating. You either have to go through the properties individually and check the pictures to make sure they will accommodate your needs, or go looking for another website and hope it lets you make these specifications.
websites that do let you specify rarely have many properties that fit your requirements, or, if they do, there are multiple alternatives for wording so you need to figure out which ones to use.
if you search specifically for "accessible houses", I don't know if this just applies to my area, but instead of places to rent long-term or buy, the first things that come up are holiday homes.
The other thing that comes up when you search "accessible housing" in my area is the council website, which I've already looked at, and the directions to apply for council housing are so vague and confusing without having to disclose your medical needs.
There are ways that house hunting can be made easier for disabled people, like including accessibility needs into the filtering section and only using a few phrases to describe needs so property options don't get filtered out. But there also needs to be more accessible housing options in the first place. The reason I'm living on campus while I'm studying at uni is because there are no alternatives nearby, I'm not the only disabled student who is doing this and it's frustrating that I have to meet and live with strangers every year, while my friends get to live with each other. And even my accessible flat isn't that accessible!
Accessible housing isn't just for the elderly, it doesn't end with a bungalow with level access. accessible housing includes wet rooms, sinks with space for a wheelchair underneath, counters that aren't at upper chest level when sitting, and so much more. Accessible housing is important and needs to be thought about when properties are being built

While it’s still #disabilitypridemonth, I wanted to talk about what being disabled looks like for me. I don’t ‘look disabled’ in the photos and videos I post here. If you saw me IRL, you might be able to tell there’s something wrong with my spine because of my skewed walk. If you caught me on a bad pain day, you’d definitely be able to tell because every single movement will make me wince. But none of that is visible in the content I create.
Chronic pain is a funny old thing. Through my photos, I try and capture the beauty I see all around me and the solace I find in it. What you don’t see is the amount of pain I’m in in each and every one of these images. Because that’s what my life is. I’m never not in pain, it punctuates every action, every movement, it’s the constant white noise in the background of my waking hours whose ebb and flow dictates every last thing I can do on a given day. Whether I’m smiling, happy, elated, content, at peace, I’m still in pain. In every single photo or video you see of me here, I’m in pain. I’ve come to accept it as an indelible fact of life that if I’m awake, I’ll be in pain.
So on Disability Pride Month, I want to reiterate that disability isn’t always visible to the naked eye. And I’m not even going into learning disabilities, chronic severe mental illness, and neurodivergence here (it took me till my late 30s to finally contest the BPD/bipolar diagnosis that I’ve been living with all my adult life and with the help of my therapist I’m finally on the waiting list to be assessed for both ADHD and autism. As it turns out, there’s reams of evidence to support both diagnoses which was ignored by multiple psychiatrists through my teens and twenties thanks to my gender and my ‘troubled’ childhood, but I digress.)
There are millions of people living with invisible disabilities like mine, navigating a world designed for abled people and being challenged when we dare to speak up about it because we ‘don’t look disabled’. Sometimes my disability looks like running through a meadow in a summery dress, at other times it looks like being stretched out on the sofa in yesterday’s clothes, stuffed with painkillers and clutching my heating pad for life. One of those two images fits the narrative of what a disabled person should look like, but both of them are me. It’s past time abled people let go of these reductive narratives about disability and learn to see us as complex, complete people too.

Had a #b r e a k d o w n earlier today over seeing like five clumps of my hair fall out while brushing my hair and feel very weird to this very moment. I love being *jazz hands* chronically ill.
