Halsey coming out on their Insta story with their diagnoses of EDS (Ehlers Danlos Syndrome), MCAS (mast cell activation syndrome) and POTS (post orthostatic tachycardia syndrome) is a huge banner moment for zebra & spoonie visibility and awareness and I stan a zebra queen. Thank you for your honest, raw presence here with us.

My very sweet and VERY Catholic coworker: this new abortion law… they’re saying God doesn’t believe in killing the innocent babe to save the wicked mother…. Well I have some news for them about what he did to his own son.
Me: oh my god.
Her: honey. Exactly.
This is getting on my fucking nerves, so I’m just going to say it here:
Adults who need high levels of support in daily living are not children.
“Mental age” is a concept rooted in eugenics, and it doesn’t actually exist.
No one should be robbed of agency or dignity because of their need for support. Oh, also, while we’re at it (since disability rights activism that doesn’t tackle age-related oppression is bullshit), kids deserve to be treated with respect too. Shouldn’t be a controversial statement, but it is.
Most people neglect to mention this, but if “being treated like a child” equates to “being robbed of agency and dignity,” there’s something fundamentally wrong with the way we treat children.
Gay Romani People are vital to our community.
Gay Jewish People are vital to our community. Gay, Jewish, and Romani people, particularly disabled women, suffer due to integral parts of their identity. Do not forget them. Opre Roma! Goyim, Gadjo, and non-gay individuals may of course reblog
ooh, yeah ive been in a similar area before. always fun times. i wish you luck in your search for an answer!
I am currently using my copy of Ugiuvangmiut Quliapyut/King Island Tales to study my ancestral language. The formatting of the stories (every sentence is its own line, the lines being numbered, the original Inupiaq on even pages with the English translation on odd pages so you can see both at the same time) seems to encourage this usage of it.
I'm also writing my notes in cursive to feel fancy ^-^ and I'm surprised the special characters are easier to write in cursive than print
“If anyone needs to go camping in my state…” “If anyone needs to visit their aunt/cousin/friend…”
I know how obnoxious this is to say, but please: reblog this. I see these posts a lot, and I know most of you have good intentions. But these unoffical auntie networks are dangerous, both for those trying to help, and those seeking help. Law enforcement sees you. Violent anti-abortion extremists see you.

I read Watership Down way too early as a child and I feel like that’s noticeable.
