Hello!! i just found this blog and was wondering if i could submit some headcannon art (made by me under a different username)

This is Marcy Wu from amphibia :))

(spoilers) she got stabbed in the back with a giant fire sword that went right thru and canon had her completely recover in a magic pickle jar but i dont belive that ✨

so i hc she has chronic pain and uses crutches and occasionally a wheelchair :3 obviously cripple punk too *⁠.⁠✧

im not sure how you take submissions but i hope this is good enough :))))

aaa yes absolutely!!

image one: [id: a dark grey flag with a dusty rainbow going from the bottom left corner up to the right, dark grey circles on top one in the middle of the other and marcy from amphibia in the middle of the image tilting her head holding out her crutches. :end id]

image two: [id: a flag with a grey border around 7 vertical stripes ranging from left to right as dusty pink, pink-orange, red-orange, dark orange, orange, light orange and yellow orange. on top of the flag is marcy from amphibia in the middle of the image tilting her head holding out her crutches. :end id]

image three: [id: a flag with 8 horizontal stripes ranging from top to bottom as red, light pink, light red, white, dark red, light pink, dusty red and medium red. on top of the flag is marcy from amphibia in the middle of the image tilting her head holding out her crutches. :end id]

image four: [id: a flag with a grey border around 7 vertical stripes ranging left to right from seafoam green, green, blue-green, dusty teal, dusty blue, desaturated blue, to light ocean blue. on top of the flag is marcy from amphibia in the middle of the image tilting her head holding out her crutches. :end id]

marcy wu from amphibia is crippled/a cripple, supports cripplepunk, has chronic pain, uses forearm crutches and a wheelchair!

image five: [id: a banner with a blue to green gradient and water-filtering-light texture under a faintly transparent blue rectangular box. in the box is light blue text that reads "Blog is about disability, disabled characters and headcanons. may include occasional pd rep but otherwise do not derail. blocking where i see fir for my comfort, please remain respectful." on the top of the banner outside the blue box is more light blue text that reads "DNI if proship, terf, are a discourse blog and other basic dni stuff" in all caps. under the blue box at the bottom of the banner is more light blue text that reads "cripplepunk is for the physically disabled only" in all caps. on either side of the banner is an image of ryn from the show siren staring off to the side. :end id]

Fave Bits from the Fourth & Final Season of Sex Education

The continuation and climax of Amy's healing journey. I'm so so glad they took their time with it - that they didn't show that you can just 'get over' or 'move on' on from abuse and assault just like that.

Adam and his Dad - I REALLY liked that Adam's character arc this season was him mending his relationship with his dad. I was worried he'd get a romance arc before he was ready or worked on his relationships with his father. But they didn't take that road at all. Parental trauma is a bitch. Well done acknowledging that.

THE DISABILITY REP. FUCK YEAH.

Queerness and faith. One of my favorite topics to write and read about. I loved Eric's journey in this season!

Jean and Joanna - I always get emotional over sibling rep because the things siblings go through together (and the need to heal together - but in your own way too) is not shown enough in a lot of media. I loved it!!

Emotionally abusive boyfriends - I needed to see this! People need to see this! Emotional abuse in relationships is so normalized and also trivialized (compared to physical/sexual abuse). Viv and Beau storyline was important!!!

I am not the ableism thought police

(in gentle response to an ask that I won't be publishing, as I don't want the tumblr user to get any blowback, and I think they were asking in good faith)

It is not inherently ableist to enjoy the OFMD finale, despite the fact that myself and many other physically disabled people are Really Fucking Uncomfortable with certain choices that were made.

You can like whatever you like. There will never be perfect media, and OFMD is better than... many shows in terms of its representation of queers and characters of colour, at least. Go forth and enjoy it! I'm not trying to take that away from you!

Here, however, is a handy list of things that ARE actual ableismsTM:

pretending the finale of your fave show is beyond reproach from physically disabled critics

dismissing the concerns and hurt of so many disabled fans who felt incredibly let down by the finale (and who want to know whether the writers consulted with disabled people before writing that whole scene (especially putting the words 'I want to go' in Izzy's mouth. jfc.))

mocking disabled people who are upset about how his self-acceptance arc as a disabled queer man ended - in a show that is trying to be progressive, no less!

making gross statements like "saying Izzy is disabled removes his character agency". Just. Wtf. I don't know how to explain to you that disabled people have agency, and that 'disability' isn't a Bad Scary Word.

claiming that just because you are physically disabled and you don't mind the finale, other physically disabled people shouldn't voice their concerns

expecting disabled people to hold your hand and reassure you that it's okay to like a show even if it Committed A Big Ol' Ableism

All of those things are ableist, and you should avoid them.

TL;DR: Love the show as much as you like. Just don't talk down to disabled fans who are raising very valid points about the ableism surrounding Izzy's death and burial. And don't demand that we emotionally coddle you and assure you that you are a good person if you liked the ending of S2.

As always, able-bodied people are encouraged to reblog - but don't join the conversation unless you are offering support.

So obviously I am a big fan of "don't use someone's disability for your own benefit."

However, today I had my physical and the nurse (my fave who has been stabbing me for over 10 years) asks if she can push my wheelchair to my car for me. No one has ever offered that, and it seemed sort of over the top, and I said "it's no big deal I can get through the parking lot."

And she whispers, "please. I left my cigarettes in my car."

I gotchu girl. We get out of the room and I say in earshot of the doctor "golly, those vaccines and bloodwork made my arms super sore and there was no handicapped parking available." Which was all true, but not true enough that I couldn't manage.

And the nurse goes, "oh my GoSh! Doc, Imma help her to her car."

And that doctor held the doors open for us with a smile on his face and everything like my nurse was just going the exta mile for patient care. I also appreciated her putting my chair in my trunk for me.

So like, if we're friends, and you need an excuse, you know what? Shoot your shot. There's a reason I got a disabled placard and not car tags. You wanna go somewhere with me and get good parking, or take a 10 minute smoke break because it's Friday and you're tired? Need to hit someone with a sturdy cane?

I gotchu.

brf-rumortrackinganon · 2 months

Something to remember about Meghan is that she’s big into projecting and deflecting. A lot of the rumors we’ve heard about William, particularly regarding his temper and hotheadedness, don’t fully match up to what we see of him/his character in public…but does match up to what we know of Harry:,,,

Spot on, Rumortracking Anon, and I’ll go a step further, where you have not on your list (although I’m sure that you, as rumortracker extraordinaire, are already aware), and add some of the most egregious rumors floating around for years about Harry’s (not William’s) “red mist” anger, all ALLEGEDLY of course:

- that in the UK, H physically assaulted/beat up women to the point of bodily injury…one even allegedly to the point of permanent disability and to whom the BRF gave a massive $$$$ settlement

- that in Afghanistan, during his total 10 weeks of deployment playing video games and being protected by ghurkas (sp?), H again physically assaulted/beat up sex workers to the point of bodily injury, and that the military/BRF covered it up. (Maybe they “didn’t let him do anything” like Madame Soho House does, allegedly?)

- that in the US (both in Vegas and in San Francisco), H yet again physically assaulted/beat up women to the point of bodily injury and that, too, has been covered up.

Just an observation, but if any of this is even remotely true, H suffers from a poisonous Oedipal brew of Mummy love/Mummy hate that even Freud or Jung couldn’t disentangle, much less successfully treat. (First Mummy loved Willy best because he was her soulmate, and he looks like her, and then she had the nerve to die and leave H mummyless, thus making H sexually fantasize about her while applying her favorite Elizabeth Arden cream to his frozen (useless) todger, and then Meg came along smelling like Mummy’s fave perfume, and Meg let lil Harry “do anything he wants,” and then Mummy started speaking to Meg, and then Meg left a positive pregnancy test on the box of Mummy’s hair that sits enshrined next to the conjugal bed…). The alleged pathology boggles the mind.

(I don’t know if you want to post this…it’s raw…and all ALLEGEDLY, but if we’re going to discuss rumors about William’s alleged temper/anger, it’s only fair that the much worse Harry rumors be noted as well.)

************

It’s a bit funny -- I did originally have those Harry rumors in that post. I spent a good 20 minutes letting that write-up sit in my drafts because I was unsure about keeping those rumors in. Ultimately I decided to take them out because I wanted to focus the comparison specifically on the allegations and displays of anger because It’s not actually clear whether the rumors of Harry’s treatment of sex workers are based in anger or if it’s a sadistic fetish. (Apologies for the mental image.)

Honestly, it makes that one engagement with the charity that supports street sex workers (the visit of inspirational banana messaging) incredibly disgusting.

There is a fourth rumor about Harry on this matter - allegedly, when Meghan was in New York for the baby shower, Harry took company with some sex workers that scratched him...in flagrante delicto. Meghan got home, saw the scratches, asked Harry what happened, and he made up the fight with William and the dog bowl and his broken necklace so she wouldn’t find out about the cheating.

That version is more plausible to me than 38-year-old William and 36-year-old Harry wrestling on the floor in the kitchen over a girl.

LGBTQ+ Disabled Characters Showdown Round 1, Wave 5, Poll 6

A character being totally canon LGBTQ+ and disabled was not required to be in this competition. Please check qualifications and propaganda before asking why a character is included.

Check out the other polls in this wave and prior here.

Art of Ling Chan by @ace-artemis-fanartist

Ling Chan-The Diviners

Qualifications:

Canonically, she is an asexual lesbian who is partially paralyzed in her legs. She uses crutches for her mobility aids. For her queerness, discovering that part of herself is a major part of her journey, first realizing slowly that she loves women, and then realizing the challenges of being ace in a queer relationship at a time when asexuality isn't widely understood.

Ling contracted "infantile paralysis" (polio) as a child, being that she was born in 1920s New York City before a vaccine was available. As such, she uses crutches and leg braces in order to walk. She is explicitly an asexual lesbian who struggles to balance both of these when neither is well-understood in her time, on top of being Chinese during the period of exclusion.

Propaganda:

She's a very cool, physically disabled ace lesbian who loves science and magic and learns the joys of friendship. She's a dreamwalker who communicates with (and sometimes fights) ghosts, and when another person with a similar power reaches out to her on that basis, and he tries to befriend her moreso than most anyone had before, they become close companions and her world expands. Also, queer solidarity--he's gay and that helps her realize she is too, since she'd had limited exposure to the idea of queerness before that.

My absolute baby. A grumpy gal who can only walk when in dreams. She falls in love with a girl who she thinks is a dreamwalker like her but turns out to be a vengeful ghost. She struggles to be with her chorus girl girlfriend because she's sexual but Ling isn't. Canon dialogue > "Which actor would you like to be with?" "Mae West." "No, romantically." "Yes." An icon with good taste Mae West is hot

Henry ‘Monty’ Montague-The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue

Qualifications:

Canonically bisexual, and, from the end of the first book, deaf in one ear. (More precisely, he only has one ear, there's no other one to be deaf in since it got basically blown off by cannon fire, but regardless he only has functional hearing on one side.)

Propaganda:

Canonically bi, and deaf/hard-of-hearing since near the end of the first book; if I remember correctly, gets more disabled as the series goes on. If you don't know him and you think one of your faves is the ultimate bi disaster, think again. My god is he a loser. And a jerk, at the start. But despite all that, or perhaps through all that, he can be genuinely meaningful representation. Starts out as a miserable nobleman trying to survive his father's homophobic abuse, ends up unattached from his rich parents and living his best queer, disabled life with his boyfriend in freedom.

Do you have any tips for developing a healthier relationship to being fat? I'm fat and have a uhhhhh very negative relationship with the physical appearance of my body, despite treating my body well on a physical level. I read a ton of fat liberation stuff and fat positive studies and while logically I know that being fat isn't bad and has no bearing on morality, personality, etc, I still can't seem to apply this reasoning to myself. Most of the content on the internet is geared towards cis abled woman when I'm a trans disabled man, so that probably contributes to some extent, but idk. It also doesn't help that attraction-wise I'm definitely drawn to people who are the exact opposite of me physically (tall, lanky, angular, etc). I've been trying for years to even just be okay with my appearance and none of the common advice has worked. I pretty much only feel okay with myself when I forget that I have a physical body. Your fat positive content makes me really happy and you seem to have a positive relationship with your body, so I thought it was worth asking if you had any tips for me or anyone else who might need them.

Feel free to disregard this message if it makes you uncomfortable! You don't know me and I don't want to put my feelings on you. I appreciate any response you might give, but I also don't want to breach any boundaries. I hope you have a nice day!

-🧪

Hello!! I've been thinkin about this question since you sent it yesterday, it's a very good question but also a toughie 😅 The thing to keep in mind is that internalized fatphobia isn't a problem caused by personal problems, it's almost entirely a societal thing. I've been working on my body image issues for a long long time now, and honestly sometimes I do still feel down about my fatness. BUT it gets easier and easier as you get older, I promise you that! Especially if you keep working on it. So here are some tips I can think of:

Try to consume a lot of body neutral media! For me, body positive stuff can get a little grating and actually do the opposite of its intended purpose, because the constant focus on "everyone is beautiful!! Love your fat body!" can start to feel... I don't know, like it's drawing attention to it too much, and making it less normal. I like media in which fatness is portrayed as normal and doesn't get alienated so much, even in a positive way. A few good recommendations I can think of off the cuff are Dungeon Meshi (can't help plugging my fave manga heheh, Ryoko Kui is just so loving in her portrayal of different body types), Steven Universe, Hairspray, and Porco Rosso. Couplagoofs on Instagram, tiktok, twitch and youtube are really good influencers for this, watching their content has helped me a lot with my own body image! I've heard that Shrill is a good show for fat representation, but I've only seen this one scene (which is very good) so I can't speak definitively about it's quality! If anyone else has any good suggestions, please reply with them 🙏

Stay off of tiktok until you feel more comfortable with your own body. Tiktok is kind of a trap, because it'll put a lot of really great diverse body neutral stuff on your fyp to lure you in, but then it'll shut you down with the most hateful shit you've ever seen. And if you're not on the body neutral side of tiktok, you'll be in skinny town USA thirst trap hell forever lmfao it's just like not worth it

Surround yourself with accepting people. It's especially helpful to seek out other fat/fat positive friends (especially of the queer and neurodivergent variety). Fat people are everywhere, we're way more common than society and media would have you think!! It's good to have people around you to remind you of that 😁

If you have the money for it, try going on a special shopping trip to find some clothes that make you feel really good. Go alone, unless you have someone who you feel 100% comfortable with, because this trip should be about your needs and whatever makes you feel happy with your own body. You don't need anyone else's opinion for that! I know that this bit of advice is a little cliche, but it's just what has helped me personally.

This might be just a me thing, but practicing with drawing fat bodies has probably done more for my body image than anything else. It forces you to spend a lot of time looking at fatness and really growing to understand it and accept it. I've got a pinterest board for fat poses that I've been collecting (which I've just realized only has feminine people in it, I need to fix that >:/ ). Fat Photo Reference is another good site for practice, but it requires a password, so if anyone wants to get in then just DM me! Self portraits are also a great idea for this, especially if you find fatness beautiful in other people but not yourself, like you've said! Maybe give it a shot on a day when you're feeling up to it 💛

I hope this helps!! I'm not an expert on this, so my advice might be just as cliche and unhelpful as everything else out there 😅 but this is all just from personal experience. Fatness is normal and healthy and beautiful, so I hope you can come to accept your own soon!! 🙏

#long post #@ everyone please provide fat positive or neutral media recommendations if you have em 🙏#I know there are so many more but they just aren't comin to mind right this second fkdhf;lh #I really hope this helps anon!! 🥺 Your fatness is beautiful #I promise #lyla trivia hour #fat positivity

Stopping by your inbox to send my thanks. I started reading Ascendance of a Bookworm because of you. It's been a blast!

Omgomgomg ASCENDANCE OF A BOOKWORM MENTIONED!!!??

AAAAA IM SO HAPPY YOU LIKED IT! IT'S SUCH A GOOD SERIES AND ONE OF MY FAVES! I really really REALLY hope that the Studio Wit anime adaptation for Part 3 is given the Frieren treatment to pull in more Bookworms like you! 😭💕

Honestly it has everything. Found family! Super detailed world building! Disability rep! Non-glorified portrayals of heavy topics! Well-written characters (even the side characters and "mob" characters)! Everything just has so much thought put into it, and Rozemyne is the most precious, chaotic yet loveable MC ever. I felt l like her parent watching her overcome many trials to fulfill her dreams. 😭 Part 3 is pretty short too even in the light novels. I'm putting too much eggs in the basket but I hope the new anime does really REALLY well and will give us part 4 and part 5. Just complete it pls my impatient ass had been preordering the books everytime the physicals come

#im so normal about ascendance of a Bookworm #im just so happy more people are reading it #ask #sorry for the rant i just get so happy when people read the stuff im hyperfixated on wkjdkdkdkf ENJOY ANON I APPRECIATE YOU

can i ask your reading for disliking emma and julian? (i feel the same way abt them hehe)

God I hate them lmao they're the only TSC ship that I actually despise. Idfk what happened because most of Cassie's romances hit a GREAT spot. But Jemma hits all the Bad Buttons.

More under the cut.

Okay well first I HATE Julian with a burning passion. Let's consider some of his most shining moments!

Drugging his disabled uncle for years

Ultimately being responsible for that uncle's death

Maintaining a creepy room full of portraits of the girl that he's creepishly obsessed with

Getting off whenever Emma tells him he scared her

Sending a vampire to what will probably be his death for selling some weird pizza (no, idgaf that the vampire was revealed to have done evil later - I don't think Julian knew that and what's more think Cassie added it to make Julian more morally correct)

Actually killed some Shadowhunter kid who did admittedly deserve it

Fucked Emma while bathed in his dead sisters blood (I get comfort sex and am not bothered by that, but the BLOOD)

Emma ain't my fave either, but I don't think she's evil. I think Julian is basically the Darkling if the Darkling were younger and made pancakes. I do think that Julian makes her a more toxic person solely because of how freaking codependent they are.

"I cannot live without you" "I breathe when you breathe" "I bleed when you bleed" are NOT romantic and healthy sentiments I'm sorry! And his room of Emma paintings is stalkery. They cannot be apart and it's crazy. It's insane. I think people like this about them but it makes me physically uncomfortable. The "I'd do anything for my Emma and my family" is possessive and unbalanced, not virtuous.

Also it drives me CRAZY that he wasn't allowed to go dark at the end. Julian made a fucking terrible hero, but he'd have been a damn good villain. But I'm supposed to ignore the fact that he's an insane asshole with 0 regard for others because he's All Better Now and makes pancakes for kids? Nope, not buying it.

Hello, big fan of your monster au fic, love every bit of it 🫶🏻

I have two questions for you

1. How did this fic start? Like, what made this idea spark in your head and say "yes, I wanna write this"?

2. Maybe it's me who didn't get it, but in your fic world are humans aware of the existence of these creatures? I know they are a band, do they perform in front of human audiences, monster audiences, a mixture of them because monsters hide among humans?

Hey there! Thank you so much and I'm so glad you like it!!

1) i always love monster AUs. Alternate worlds were my fave part of any fandom and imagining monsters was extra fun. My fave books as a kid were about monsters and creatures living kinda ordinary lives. A good book series as a kid was Phredde the Fairy which had such a well thought out world that incorporated magic so easily with the real world.

I also love the idea of how what monster you pick to represent yourself can show your personality. For me i would be a Frankenstein monster cause I feel I'm made of lots of different pieces all sewn together and trying to be human.

You can play around with characters so easily, have the wolf transformation of a werewolf represent feeling out of control or having to lock away and hide a part of yourself.

A ghost can represent wanting to be seen and heard but always being ignored and fading into the background.

You can make it as deep as you want or you can just want to play with some fun powers and interesting scenarios.

For me I really wanted to just have an AU I could play with. I could make a whole world for, with lots of backstory and detail and I could make it complex or it could be read as just light-hearted fun.

I'm probably autistic so having character traits be manifested as physical things (bojan's whore tendancies= he is a sex demon) make it easier for me to write them and understand them. Jan's tail can express his emotions even if he doesn't as much irl.

(Also artwork in this universe is much easier and fun to do cause they all have distinct look lol)

(Sorry that got long. TL:DR I just wanted to play with a world I made)

2) I haven't addressed it really but monsters and humans exist alongside one another in relative harmony. Well as harmonious as humans get. Joker Out is slightly unusual in that every member is a monster but yeah there's humans who like them. Humans are boring to write about though so I don't bring them up.

Several monsters start off human. Kris was a human until he was 19 and was then turned (Martin was also turned) and Nace is made from pieces of human but made a monster by combining them together.

I considered making some background and crew characters human but that's much less fun to play with than monsters so I just never brought up who was what.

Basically think of any monster race as like a different human race or disability or anything really. Everyone knows they exist, some places have higher concentrations of certain types, some places are more prejudice, some are more accommodating.

They're as normal and diverse as people having different hair colours.

#I'm hoping this makes sense and kinda answers your question #sorry for rambling a bit lol #monster hearts #JO monster AU #loved the question and i really hope you enjoy reading it #JO Monster AU worldbuilding #JO Monster AU writing/BTS

Okay, so... I've been holding onto this for a long time, & I really want to get it off my chest.

So I attended a con years ago with my SO. I was feeling particularly anxious & unwell, so I basically stayed mute the entire day. When I found out Greg Cipes would be there, I got super excited because I love Beast Boy from the Teen Titans cartoon of the 00s, Mikey is my fave ninja turtle, & he's done a couple other roles I enjoyed.

When we got in line, I wrote a message to my SO saying how I was so nervous that I don't think I would be able to speak to Cipes. He sympathized & said he'd try to explain in a roundabout way why I wasn't talking. I sincerely appreciated his effort & agreed to the plan.

I finally got up to meet Cipes, & my SO goes onto say on my behalf, "Hey, this is Lucia, & she's a big fan of your work as BB & Mikey!" I smiled at Cipes, who gave me a confused look and a forced half smile as he said, "Does Lucia...talk?"

I felt my face grow hot, & any word I tried to say to explain myself got caught in my throat. I started to panic, but my SO luckily swooped in to say, "Uh, she does, it's just a little hard for her today! Can we take a photo with you?" Cipes awkwardly got close to me for a photo, scribbled hurriedly in the notebook I brought for him to sign, then nodded a goodbye.

After that, I couldn't handle the rest of the con and asked my SO if we could leave early, so we did.

I look back on that moment years later and I feel so many different emotions: embarrassed, confusion, and...a bit betrayed. Those words really cut me deep. "Does Lucia talk?" It made me feel like a freak, like he was already judging me.

He didn't have to say anything. My SO already introduced me. He could have just said, "Hey, Tina, thanks for being a fan! Want a photo?" But he looked me right in the face & asked as if I wasn't there about my ability to talk. He made no effort to hide his appalment, which made the blow hit twice as hard.

As someone that can go mute depending on how stressed/anxious I am, that really hurt me. If I could control my speech during times of stress, I would in a heartbeat. But it doesn't work like that for me. The fact that Cipes was visibly put off by a fan being unable to communicate in the "typical way" made me feel so...small, alone. Like I lost an ally - someone that I thought would understand.

To this day, I can't watch 00s Teen Titans, or TMNT 2012, or hear his voice in any capacity without cringing. My heart sinks even when I see the character Beast Boy because I'm instantly reminded of how alienated I felt when I met a voice actor that I thought was cool, funny, and understanding.

Growing up with 00s Teen Titans, Beast Boy was my favorite character, & I always got so excited when I saw him on screen. That excitement carried over when I heard Cipes' voice in other TV shows that I loved. It felt like I knew him, & I always imagined how cool it would be to meet him in real life. Well, look how that turned out.

I don't want to outright call Cipes an ableist...but his actions toward me felt ableist. It felt like the same stern judgment and disgust that I felt when teachers would chastise me for not sitting still, or forgetting to do my homework for the hundredth time (ADHD). Or when my boss would begrudgingly wish me well after yet another episode caused me to be too weak/physically incapable of coming into work (absent seizures & dysautonomia). It felt like the same apathetic, annoyed, "why are you like this" judgment that I would receive whenever a disability of mine rendered me less than perfect. And the last person I expected to feel that from was Greg Cipes.

I guess this is why they say you should never meet your heroes.

#my rambles #greg cipes #selective mutism #ableism #and to anyone who thinks that i might be overreacting #you might be right #but this is how i feel #this is how my brain interpreted the situation #so i ask that you please respect my feelings
