Stranger: Ooh, look, a dog.

Me:

Stranger: *makes kissy noises to my dog.*

Me:

Stranger: *BARKS at my dog.*

Me:

Stranger: Oh, it's an emotional support dog.

Me: Actually-

My ass may be chronic but my pain is iconic.

I'm being held together with duck tape and zip ties at this point.

You know what, I'm crashing, I'm burning. I'm falling out of the sky.

I just clenched my butt cheeks and my back popped.

So I have started a thing to motivate me (kinda)

I have a jar next to my bedroom door and everytime I have a good health day, I put a tiny piece of origami in it

My friend (@ask-and-i-answer ) wanted to do something similar so we came up with a mug and money system. The bigger the coin, the bigger the pain she had that day.

For example: a quarter would mean that she was having extremely bad pain and a dime means very little pain.

I'm not just overdramatic, I'm also overstimulated

Having a chronic illness sometimes means cutting a walk short. Other times it means chopping garlic on your bed because it's comfy there

I am seeing a lot of controversy that Ride the Cyclone is abilist. Don't get me wrong, it is to some extent. But I feel like the people saying that the show is abilist because they introduce a disabled character and almost immediately get rid of his disability have some of it wrong.

The main theme of the show is death (because they all died) and as a disabled person, seeing a disabled character be able to be free of the pain and that he could be 'normal' and do things he wouldn't have been able to do in life makes me feel good. I personally believe that in death, there should be no physical ailments from the living world.

I apologize if you disagree with me, but this is how I see it.
