when the band director says, “one more time.”
I really need to stop giving myself ways to waste time... but until that happens, feel free to browse the insanity that I find (mostly from my friends, which speaks more of their insanity lol), read the not always gramatically correct thanks to Twitter updates from my life, and listen to the random thoughts that enter my head. Also, I'm addicted to Youtube, so be prepared for lots of videos :)

While every disabled person will have their own take on this for themselves, i am not “differently abled” and i kindly ask that you not insist on calling me that. It may seem like a trivial thing, but it’s not.
When you call me “differently abled” (in most cases this is regarding your perceptions and interpretations of my body), you are obscuring (however intentional or not) the reality that what is actually going on is in part just an ableist social construction made architectural: some people are actively ENabled to be part of their communities/ neighbourhoods/ spaces/ etc, and some of us are actively DISabled from doing so specifically because in general those who are ENabled to do so are the ones making the decisions about how and when and where the constructed environment is created and DISabled folks just have to suck it up because, yknow, ableism.
