fuck it, i never ever do those “reblog for X, this one really works!” posts, but this one doesn’t have any of that BS, this is just straight up wishing us good things; and then the comment doesn’t even say any of that either. Zero claims on this post, all positive vibes

May you end this week feeling ever more certain of a future you’ll love

The thing that abled people who advocate for the disabled community don’t get is that there are times when disabilities/accommodations clash. Horribly.

Like I spent years having to come up with a solution to get therapy dogs into a series of residence halls. Why years? Because we had to decide who got to stay and who got to leave: the people who needed therapy dogs or the people with severe allergies to animals. Who got the alternative housing? 

Things like fidget toys might seem great for some disabled people but having them in the room could be distracting/overstimulating for others. The same goes with stimming. It can’t be helped but neither can the anxiety that another person in the room feels as they watch/hear it. Additionally, something like a weighted blanket might immediately calm one kid down and send the other one into a panic attack due to the claustrophobia it causes. (*Points to myself*)

Every Metro bus in New York City has a series of seats at the front that can be lifted up to accommodate people in wheelchairs but if I’m in one of those spots then someone with a cane/walker has to journey even further to sit down.

The flashing lights of a fire alarm are there to help deaf/hearing impaired but if they’re not properly timed, they can also cause a person to have a seizure.

The worst part about all of these is that there is rarely a concrete solution that makes everyone happy/safe. And I’m not here to offer any because I don’t know them. I’m just here to remind you all that as you’re taking your education/health classes, as you’re reading your textbooks, as you’re preparing to go be an advocate, just remember that there is rarely ever such a thing as a one-size-fits-all solution to advocacy and that something you do that can help one disabled person might actually hinder another.

Food for thought.

Birthday Giveaway ✤ Roni Stark & Ava Potts

@thecaptainsgingersnap

i just love them so much!!!

Percy seeing an old satyr that is a completely different race than his best friend and saying with his whole chest “Man, Grover got really old” is the FUNNIEST FUCKING THING IN THIS EPISODE FIGHT ME I AM RIGHT

the ninth doctor was lowkey so under appreciated. he was the perfect combination of rascal (mostly) benevolent god and slut

imo he was the most considerate doctor, who was the most aware of his power and the people he was capable of hurting. he was cynical and moody and war worn but he cared so deeply. he loved knowing he’d lose. he kissed a servant girl on the forehead that sacrificed herself who no one would remember except for him and rose. and at the same time a right bastard <3

The contrast between Nine's absolute glee in, "Everybody lives, Rose! Just this once, everybody lives!" and the cold self-recognition of loathing in his "Only a killer would know that" dinner with the Slitheen leader. Eccleston was so good.

forever my doctor.

Birthday Giveaway

Super fun speedy description it’s about to be my birthday ( Feb 10 ) and that’s historically not a fantastical day for me so I want to do something fun and here we are there is nothing fancy to it just a fun little party party time

As always, offering both standard oc gifts and crossovers, you can submit as many as you want of each (in general pls send each request separately but if you want to include an oc gift and a crossover in the same submission that’s a-okay), details below the cut

( tagging some of the besties but this is by no means exclusive! @the-witching-ash @ocmerunaway @farklelucas @my-random-ocs @manyfandomocs @darknightfrombeyond @ginevrastilinski-ocs @megdonnellys @cecexwrites @thecaptainsgingersnap )

i support universal free healthcare for one simple reason: if you are diagnosed with a terminal illness you should quit your job. quitting your job is the correct response to terminal illness. but you can’t do that if your healthcare is tied to your job

listen if somebody knows that they will be dead in a years time, and you are forcing them to continue to come into work, that’s fucked up. terminally ill people should be able to quit their jobs and live their last few months to the fullest. i don’t get how that’s a controversial opinion

You shouldn’t date or become serious friends/partners with someone if you can’t stomach the thought of being stuck in a car or train with them for 16 hours.

Here’s my logic:

These tags are hilarious even though I don’t think you intended them to be.

*pulls European closer* The most populous countries in the world are China, India, the United States, Indonesia, Pakistan, Nigeria, and Brazil in that order, with these seven nations alone making up 48.16% of the world population. You may note with the aid of a map that many of these nations are quite large, and would take several days of travel to go across either in cars or on boats. Almost half of the world's population lives in places where you can travel in a cramped vehicle for days and still be within the country. Your worldview is limited and Europe is a tiny outlier in travel time and standards for international relations.

I understand people here are upset about the Audrey hate - and I get that, but many are responding to that by blaming Ben for the situation that has unfolded. And that is victim blaming. He was under a drug/love spell that Mal dosed him with and anything he did under it is on her, not him.

You can defend Audrey without victim blaming Ben, and honestly I would say criticizing him here is even worse than criticizing her, as while it’s easy to empathize with her actions she was at least in physical control of herself, Ben was not. Not that I believe judging either harshly is acceptable, but I see this as responding to an unfair criticism of character A with an even more unfair criticism of character B.

whats the difference between outlaws and inlaws

outlaws are wanted

come on reblog this my grandma told me this joke and was convinced she was going to be famous on tumblr for it

every time my mom and grandma get into an argument my grandma says “excuse me pamela i am famous on the tumbler”

donna's husband spent that whole episode just going around saying "i love my wife and daughter" "i didn't agree but what was i gonna do, stop my wife? you haven't met her" and "have you met my wife and daughter? they're the most beautiful women in the world"

and it's exactly everything that donna deserves

we love Sean Temple in this house!!!

Traditional Wilfred Mott wearing antlers Christmas post

A small thing but when I saw Percy in a red jacket, I was like ‘huh’ but shrugged it off. Cause while I never imagined Percy wearing warm tones beyond the camp shirt, it felt a little off but it’s just clothes.

Then the Minotaur charges in and Sally asks for the jacket and I’m like ‘oh no way, she’s gonna oley this!’ but the moment it cuts to the wide shot of her and the Minotaur I nearly yelled out:

MY MOM TEACHES ME BULLFIGHTING

like it’s the little details that builds up to this big things, like you can see a line in the bull’s horn from when Sally used the car to crash away from the Minotaur and then Percy sees it and snaps it off
