disability advocacy went wrong when it became about inspiration porn and “differently abled” and savants. its incredible that that guy with no legs did a triathlon but your sister with no legs will not and she doesnt need prosthetics or five hour training days to deserve respect and compassion and accommodations. its incredible that that autistic guy can look at a city from a helicopter for an hour and then draw the entire detailed skyline from memory when he lands but your autistic friend cannot and they dont need to have a special Autism Power to deserve respect and compassion and accommodations.
activism framed around “we are just as CAPABLE” means that when people genuinely are less capable they are left behind. activism framed around “we are just as WORTHY” is fundamental to radical compassion.
y'all are posting lyrics like i know what songs they're in
Taylor saw us suffer for three years between 1989 and reputation and said “never again”
Just because your feelings are valid, this doesn't mean that every possible reaction to them is. Yes, it's okay to be angry - but it's not okay to take it out on someone by breaking their stuff. Yes, it's okay to be jealous - but it's not okay to sabotage relationships. Yes, it's okay to want attention - but it's not okay to lie to get it. And so on. Your feelings are always valid, but you still have a responsibility for how you choose to express them.

THERE’S ART NOW???!?
reblog and put in the tags what song on folklore has grown on you the most since release.
FREE TIANNA ARATA
In July, Tianna Arata, a freedom fighter was peacefully protesting in demanding justice for George Floyd, as she was on her way home, San Luis Obispo PD arrested for just exercising her first amendment rights to protest, and now the police chief wants to charge her for multiple felonies and misdemeanors. This is an intimidation/scare tactic by the PD to stop dissent and the movement for change. No one should face 15 years for exercising their first amendment rights. Sign this petition in helping free Tianna and have every charge against her dropped.

i know that “don’t harass people for being weird, they might be autistic!” is a fairly popular take on here. but as a Certified Autist, i’d like to add that harassing allistic and/or neurotypical people for being weird is also bad, and should not be done
and before you come in with “yeah, you never know who is and isn’t autistic, and you shouldn’t force people to out themselves!” i want to say two things: one, i agree. and two, even if you could magically avoid ever harassing a single autistic person, it still wouldn’t be okay to go after NTs for being weird. they’re people, janice. they’re allowed to be really invested in naruto
“They’re people, janice thry’re allowed to be really into naruto.” Just needs to be the tag line for this entire site. Let people enjoy things, even if they enjoy them “too much” I have a couple dozen handmade stuffed animals in a display in my room. And like 3 clocks functioning clocks none of which are normal round analogue clocks. One is an old record someone turned into a clock for me. Because I wanted it. Idk. Had it for a long time. It’s gotten old enough that telling time with it is usually just like “i disagree with you but fine it’s 2 am somewhere.”
You’re the best, Grandpa.
taylor: the other girl doesn’t have a name

taylor: no that’s just the name of the so—

life… is an egg
explain
has chickens in it sometimes
dream date: we get chinese food delivered, it’s raining, i take a shower in your shower (it must be a nice shower with good water pressure), you let me wear your clothes after i shower, you have a cat that i can pet, we watch movies, i fall asleep in your bed for like fifteen hours, you fall in love with me
We don’t talk about the line “tried to change the ending, Peter losing Wendy” enough. in the novel peter literally said he would come back for Wendy every spring but then gets mad when one day he comes back and she’s betrayed him by growing up. Wendy knew Peter would come back just like Betty knew James would but Wendy she also knew that she was going to grow up when Peter wouldn’t which is also the same with Betty and James.
i'm such a "no no, it's okay" person with tears in eyes
taylor swift said “so I sneak out to the garden to see you we keep quiet cause we’re dead if they knew” and “marry me juliet you never have to be alone i love you and that’s all i really know” and “i fell in love with a careless man’s careful daughter” and “baby i know places we won’t be found” and “i loved you in spite of deep fears that the world would divide us” and “i would fall from grace just to touch your face” and “i don’t want you like a best friend” and “if we get burned, at least we were electrified” and “(betty) i showed up at your party will you have me? will you love me? will you kiss me on the porch in front of all your stupid friends?” and “all these people think love’s for show but i would die for you in secret” and “then you won’t have to cry or hide in the closet and just like a folk song our love will be passed on” and im not supposed to have lesbian feelings about it?
