Survived Checking My Bank Account. I Deserve A Little Treat

You know what? I’m not sorry for what I said when I was dehydrated.

yeah the joke is funny but it’s actually really sad that people who are struggling can’t be candid about experiencing suicidality without threat of incarceration. and that the role ‘mental health’ professionals play in enforcing state policy is so normalised that everyone in these comments finds it funny. what kind of fucked up system insists that those deemed mentally ill must be subjected to therapy and then can’t even allow those trying to glean whatever small benefits are possible, to be genuine and talk about their real feelings?

also what’s particularly horrible is the self confessed therapist saying that ‘y’all ain’t slick’ as if incarcerating people and subjecting them to state violence is funny. fucking man…

Everyone say thank you american indigenous people for cultivating corn, potatoes, peppers, tomatoes, cacao, pumpkin, squash, and anything i missed. Makes life more meaningful globally

Like it's important to remember that you can be "high functioning" and manage a job and live independently and still be miserable and have a low quality of life. Just like you can be "low functioning" and unable to work and need a lot of care and assistance with daily activities and still live a life you find to be meaningful and enjoyable. A lot of people tend to assume that the more care and accommodations you need to live your life, the more unhappy you must be, but quality of life is a lot more nuanced than that

"contract grading" "only 4 absences or you drop to an F" "in this class we will be teaching about disabilities. attendance is mandatory and i do not accept late work" "please respond to at least two of your peers in this discussion post" "people with autism need time to decompress in a classroom environment. your class is four hours long with a 7 minute break." "we like to let students learn the way THEY want to learn. please buy our 150 dollar textbook."

"Actually many disabled people do contribute to society" is not a great argument against eugenics, by the way.

The way they stare at each other is so special to me 😌

would Henry love square dancing or line dancing or swing dancing? Imagine them doing some kind of swing dance mixed with some modern ballroom (cuz you know at least Alex had to take some classes) for their first dance at their wedding. Laughing and pushing and pulling each other all around the dancefloor and looking very much in love
