u have a responsibility to understand ur own privilege btw, there really isn't a way around it. if ur white u gotta learn about structural racism, if ur a man then u gotta learn about patriarchy, if u live in the first world then u gotta learn about imperialism. u have to be a class traitor, no excuses
u think i made this blog to talk politics ?? i made this blog to jerk off and then everyone showed up. i was like oh damn now i have A Platform on the most sheltered, white, usamerican website in the universe so i used it. get out of the matrix and come live on this shitty flying submarine thing with me
i really hate how autism/ADHD has been watered down to mean silly or have 1 billion hyperfixations(the word isn't even used in the correct context anymore). autism will have you act awkward, you might do or saying something inappropriate, you might not understand what peoples words mean or not recognize people. It affects the way how you eat, socialize, and engage with hobbies.
ADHD will literally make doing simple chores feel like your lifting a fucking mountain with your bare hands. executive dysfunction is a BITCH! ADHD also affects your relationship with people, activities especially, simple tasks, and mental health.
you are going to feel annoying with these disorders, like a burden to other people. it sucks. but you're more than a dead weight, it's just hard to realize.
with the topic of hyperfixation, it does not mean you really like something, it means you are OBSESSED with something to the point you are glued to it. i get so hyperfixated on art and drawing that I forget to eat and piss. it's a struggle.
Do u guys remember when that beauty and the beast live action remake came out and people were acting like them making gastons sidekick who's name basically means "dumb idiot" and was used as a punching bag in the og movie gay was like awesome representation and ppl were drawing like little anime versions of them
sometimes it's so obvious that Glee was brainstormed by a white gay man like when Kurt says "Mercedes is black, I'm gay, we make culture" honey 65% of your culture is copying black women
You know how people let their dogs eat chocolate before they get put down so they can try it. If I ever have to get my parrot put down he’s going out with a monster mango loco I just know he’d go crazy for that shit.
chronicallyjenni 7 Everyday Hacks You Wouldn’t Have Without Disabled People!
You know the little ramp at the end of a pavement? That’s called a curb cut; made for wheelchair users. But now used by parents with buggies, cyclists, people with suitcases and more.
That’s the curb cut effect: when access for disabled people ends up helping everyone.
1. Electric Toothbrush
Originally designed for people with limited grip or coordination, now everyone uses them.
2. Ramps
Built for wheelchair access, but perfect for buggies, bikes and suitcases too.
3. Text-to-Speech & Voice Assistants
Created for blind people and those who struggle with mobility, now it’s how half of us set timers.
4. Velcro
This stuff was used in disability care settings long before it hit trainers and schoolbags.
5. Audiobooks
Originally made for blind readers, now a go-to for multitasking or rest. It's one of my favourite pastimes!
6. Touchless & Automatic Doors
Again made for accessibility but now essential in supermarkets, airports and hospitals.
7. Subtitles & Captions
Originally for Deaf and hard of hearing people, now everyone uses them, on the train, at night, or just to focus better.
Disability drives innovation. Accessibility helps everyone. So next time you use one of these, remember where it came from. Be sure to share this so more people realise the impact disability has on their lives.
Video Description: Jenni, a white disabled woman with auburn hair and using a manual wheelchair, shows 7 everyday hacks we wouldn’t have without disabled people, including the electric toothbrush, kerb ramps, voice assistants, Velcro, audiobooks, automatic doors and captions. These are all examples of the curb cut effect: access tools designed by or for disabled people that now benefit everyone.
"the best way to screw jkr over is by making her characters queer!" actually. The best way to screw jkr over is to stop engaging with the property she still profits off of and read a different fucking book
we're 10 days away from the anniversary of this post breaking my blog, so reblogs are back on! maybe I can get a new blocklist out of this
#i like to think data took him all the way to the brig tossed him in and left#and then came back 60 seconds later and was like ‘i believe i have successfully played a ‘practical joke’ on you :)’#riker loses it & claps him on the back like ‘wow. good job u rly had me going. dont ever fucking do that again’
Perfect.
Actually it’s 73 seconds. Data, knowing something of how human minds work, estimates that Riker will give him 60 seconds to come back (because humans prefer “round numbers”, however arbitrary the units). After 60 seconds it will take 4 seconds for Riker to fully process the conclusion that Data is, in fact, not coming back after all, and an additional 9 seconds to build to the optimum level of anxiety.
After all, comedy is timing.
