It’s silly how many of you underestimate the intelligence of autistic people. I’m amazed at how yall sincerely believe an autistic adult doesn’t know the danger of climbing in a lions enclosure at a zoo.

Something I’ll never forgive the world for is that in Teighlors last moments the EMT asked if she was having a panic attack. It would be just a couple minutes later that she took her last breath at my feet.

In Gary, Indiana, without refrigeration insulin supplies are being spoiled, and people who depend on oxygen cannot pump it from their tanks due to lack of electricity. A public health disaster.

If you or someone you know is black & disabled in Gary, please connect them with us so we can try to help secure whatever supplies they may need
Gary, Indiana is without power for the 11th straight day after storms. This is climate injustice.

Finally watched Obsession. People really need to start warning me when they’re showing me stuff that has partner death in it.

I’m getting older, my tummy hurts, and I’m tired. At least I’ll finally be getting health insurance again after 6 years without it. Small wins.

I finally had a really amazing night last night after a while of going through some hardship, and I cannot be more grateful for the good things right now.

Queer disabled people have been begging for Pride to be accessible for decades. Pride is supposed to be inclusionary. By excluding high risk and disabled people, you're excluding a group that you can join at any time. Disability is interconnected to everything. Please include us.
