actually i think we need to talk about how lonely and isolating it is to be young and chronically ill. of course being older and unwell is no picnic either, but there’s something about watching people around your own age live their lives as normal that stings. everyone i know my age is working, studying, exercising, travelling, going out for walks, for drinks, to dance or to see a film or buy groceries, making new friends and learning new things and trying new hobbies, just existing in public in a way that i am not able to do. i am stuck, here, feeling like i can’t grow up while everyone else around me gets to have these normal experiences. of course i know i am not the only disabled twentysomething on the planet, but the knowledge that most people my age are reaching milestones that are just beyond my reach makes me feel isolated, helpless, and ultimately, alone.
being so fr with you all we need to drastically accelerate anti-car propaganda.
we need to make it so clear to future generations that we no longer tolerate a world where you cannot conveniently go for a walk or get a coffee or get groceries without a car

You might be more than one. You might be different ones at different times. 🫶🏽🫶🏽 you might not be one of these. There are more roles 💪🏽 but this is an amazing intro.
You can’t just like the idea and envision yourself in one of these roles you have to figure out how to be about it ♥️🫶🏽
