A series of pictures depicting issues for those who rely on wheelchairs.

A person with glasses sitting on a wheelchair stares at a door entrance located on a set of stairs.

Did you know... Some of us couldn’t even enter our own homes?

A crowd gathers in front of a bus, with a person on a wheelchair on the back, trying to get other people’s attention.

Please be mindful... Of those who can’t “push” their way around!

A woman with a hijab and glasses sits at a receptionist desk. A person on a wheelchair wearing a kippah is unable to reach the top to get her attention.

Simple things like reception desk height actually matters a lot!

A person on a wheelchair wearing a baseball hat backwards is unable to close the door to the restrooms. Despite this, the sign outside is marked as wheelchair accessible.

It is as if... Some doors aren’t meant to be closed!

A person on a wheelchair is frightened as their wheelchair goes down too fast down a ramp.

Did you know... That wheelchair ramps are steeper than recommended?

A man wearing a kippah is about to enter a temple, but covers his wheelchair wheels with a cover to keep the inside of the temple as clean as possible.

Wheelchairs go everywhere... But we can provide wheel covers for special places.

A picture of a parking lot Two cars are parked, one with most space to allow a disabled person to get on and off. A woman holding crutches is angered at a motorcycle parked in front of her car, which isn’t supposed to be there. A person on a wheelchair nearby notices her anger.

There’s a reason why... Certain space is allocated at disabled parking lots. And no, it’s not for your bike!

Two people stand in front of an automatic door. One is a child attempting to wave their hands to get it to open, and the other is a person on a wheelchair.

Notice that sometimes... Automatic door sensors are a bit short?

A bus is waiting at a stop. A person on a wheelchair is unable to get to the stop due to a steep ledge in front of them.

Are you aware that... Despite the upgraded buses, the bus stops need upgrading too?

A person on a wheelchair is using an ATM machine, which is placed at a lower position so they’re able to reach and use the machine comfortably.

In case you’re wondering... Why the new ATM machine designs are lower and slightly uncomfortable to use while standing up...

fun fact! the producer of shrek based Lord Farquaad on his evil former boss, the CEO of disney, Michael Eisner. They even look the fucking same

in real life Eisner is pretty tall. on the other hand, the shrek producer, Jeffrey Katzenberg, is quite short . Eisner, being an asshole, once infamously said of Katenzberg, “I think I hate that little midget.” 

so 5′0″ Katzenberg went and turned his asshole boss into a little person named Lord Fuckwad

yeah

What I think is that obviously there’s a long history of bi women being told they’re “just straight.”

So, around 2015, mostly on tumblr, there was a really big push to highlight bi women’s attraction to other women.

What I think inadvertently happened from this is a downplaying of bi women’s attraction to men, so jokes like “I’m bi, which means I’m attracted to all women and one man” became very popular.

And that kind of joke got SO big, that on the internet the understanding of a bi woman became “attracted to most women, not that many men, and is ASHAMED of that attraction to men.”

And I think that for bi women who are very online… some of them actually internalised that shame, because it feels like there’s this need to prove that you actually are bi through attraction to women.

So even when acting on attraction to men, they will still try to downplay that and highlight attraction to women, which is where jokes like “I have a boyfriend but I wish I had a girlfriend” come from, which are fuckin’ weird!

I am not blaming bi women for this, I just think we should talk about it, because I know a lot of them feel like they have to meet this expectation, even if that’s not how they understand their own sexuality, which hinders one’s understanding of their sexuality… and just sucks.

CANNOT stop thinking about the Josh fight. Over 100 guys named josh got together to fight with pool noodles and they all decided that the winner was a five year-old so tiny the Burger King crown was too big for him. And they lifted him into the air and cheered like he was Simba. Earth is a good place to be after all
