what neurotypical abled people cant seem to get into their heads is aids and medication dont stop people from being neurodivergent and/or disabled. hearing aids dont stop deaf or hard of hearing people from being deaf or hard of hearing, it just makes hearing easier mobility aids such as canes or crutches dont stop people with arthritis, chronic pain, or just general mobility issues from having arthritis, chronic pain, or just general mobility issues, it just makes getting around easier
pain medication doesnt stop people with chronic pain stop being in pain (specifically in the long term), it just makes pain management easier
fidget & stim toys and fidget & stim jewelry dont stop people with anxiety from having anxiety, adhd-ers from having fucked up exectutive function, and autistics not being able to automatically regulate emotions and sensory responses, it just makes dealing with them all easier
various adhd medications doesnt make people not have adhd anymore, it just makes it easier to regulate their executive function.
anxiety medication doesnt get rid of anxiety, it just makes it easier to deal with.
white canes and sight specific service animals dont stop blind people and people with sight impairments from being blind or having sight impairments, it just makes living with them easier.
trauma and emotional support specific service animals dont stop people from having trauma and emotional issues, it just makes dealing with them easier
anti-depressants dont stop people with clinical depression from being depressed, they just make it easier to deal with by stabilizing mood.
immune suppressants dont stop people with any autoimmune condition(s) (such as crohn's, psoriasis or psoratic arthritis, rhumitiod arthritis, myasthenia gravis, fibromyalgia, ect.) being affected in any way affected by their autoimmune condition(s), they just make living with the condition(s) easier.
medication and aids arent magic. they dont make the disabled and/or neurodiverse person not disabled and/or not neurodiverse, they dont entirely cancel out the thing they are used/pescribed for, they just make it easier to exist in a world where whats considered "normal" or "independant" or "a regular human being" doesnt automatically include them.
just imagine a boy flirting with a girl in ancient greece and he tells her "you're prettier than aphrodite" and instead of blushing and saying "thank you" she goes BRO ARE YOU KIDDING ME ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND WHY THE F*CK DID YOU SAY THAT DO YOU WANT ME F*CKING DEAD OR WHAT
Proud to be an el jibbity 🫡
one of the kids at my job calls queer people 'el jibbity' and i think it's adorable
this lil dude is cishet, but he's so respectful and always asking me the meanings of queer flags and what order the colors go in so he can color them for me and his friends
he'll eat homophobes, he loves learning about queer people and their experiences, and is active with his support and vocal in his defense of our community. he'll smile in joy when i tell him about new 'el jibbity lore' or when one of the other kiddos tells him of their queerness. a ten year old. i make sure he knows he's loved and appreciated by us el jibbities.
in the most aggressive voice a ten year old boy can muster, he voices his support for the 'el jibbity' community (not even sure where he heard of the el jibbity meme) and i think all allies should be like that.
i think that's what humanity should be like. a little silly, childlike and wonderful, curious, and supportive.
this new generation of children is something else
LET WOMAN HAVE VISIBLE AGE FFS ITS JUST AS HOT AS OLD MEN WITH WRINKLES
Stop removing Lady Dimitrescu’s wrinkles and stretch marks/scars/blemishes. Stop making her super skinny, because clearly she is not. Stop de-aging Lady Dimitrescu. She is a mature woman and her wrinkles/blemishes are part of her beauty. Literally stop removing those features.
flags specifically/exclusively for folks with these conditions, general arthritis flag found on an older post

Osteoarthritis/OA + Rheumatoid/RA
Osteoarthritis(left) <- a flag for those with osteoarthritis, a form of arthritis where the cartilage in joints begins to break down causing mobility issues, pain and so on.
Rheumatoid(right) <- a flag for those with Rheumatoid Arthritis, a form of arthritis where the body's immune system attacks healthy cells in the joints causing pain, inflammation, mobility issues and so on.

[id: a green to white gradient box with a gif of candles and witchcraft tools on a shelf in the background and dark green text on top of the image reading "dni if transx/transid, radqueer, terf. more in pinned post. free to use/identify so long as you respect my boundaries. exclusive terms/flags are non-debatable". :end id]
Made a combo flag!
Hey hey! Recently made these flags for Birlflux! (Girlflux plus Boyflux)
I didn't coin the term, but I did make these flags bc I didn't like any already out there!
Made a cool tone and a warm tone one!
The reason they're purple is because pink and blue (the primary colors of both flags) mixed make purple!
