Please Watch Out For The Disabled

This afternoon my husband took me out for a walk. I can't tell you how many people looked at us, saw me in my wheelchair and continued to stay in our way. Oh, there were people who saw us and took their sweet time getting out of the way. This infuriates to no end. Privileged able-bodied people treating the disabled as second class citizens. One woman even looked at me with contempt.

if i said some of the stuff abled people have said to me about my disability to them about their non disability

"lol did you just open this with your hands? you are so chaotic"

"that picture of you and your partner holding hands is kinda weird. looks like you’re kindergarteners the way you‘re both standing next to each other"

"your knees look so …. basic"

"sorry you need a certificate of capacity to use the stairs"

i have a question and idk who to even ask on this and i suppose it will be an opinion no matter what... so i just post it on tumblr ! haha!

So I have a question for the disabled pokémon community in regards to designing a character, from an able bodied presenting person. I'm gonna give my sketch of Wally so far below under the cut if that helps.

I'm designing my take on older Wally, and I wanted to make him more visably disabled. I'm aiming for something aligned with cripple punk ideals beyond aesthetics, but I'm not that well read about it and I don't want to betray those values. Since his condition is only loosely implied to be asthma, which from my own limited observations is mostly seen through the use of medical inhalers, I thought I'd take a few creative liberties. I'm giving him a futuristic mask attached to a small cylindrical filter on his back through two large tubes on the side. It's not a permanent fixture, and he can take it off to sleep, eat, talk over tea, etc. It's sort meant to look like a knight mask, reminiscent of gallade. The mask functions as both a filter (since he works in/near the battle factory at the Hoenn battle frontier) and also as a drug administration device when he's having asthma-esque episodes. My idea is meant to invoke images of more villainistic / ableist characters (like the obvious Darth Vader), but once you meet him, Wally's is actually a very soft, sweet guy. He's just is also capable of annihilating you in a pokémon battle, so people talk up how scary he is to battle. I know this in itself is a trope, but I'm unaware of how the disabled community feels about it and if it's initself abeist. The rest of his clothing isn't villainous, just kind of a progress of what he wore when he was younger.

So, is there anything I should do differently or should know before going forward? I'm not going to pretend that I'm immune to being abeist, and I'm not sure if implying that Wally has some form of fictional pokémon asthma is really the proper way to go. But I thought I should at least try to reach out to the disabled community before I do anything that might be speaking for them.

Abled-Body Neurodivergents when people with chronic headaches, epilepsy, and brain damage consider themselves neurodivergent: “Our community is no for  you. Go to the forkies or something.“

Abled-Body Neurodivergents when people with chronic headaches, epilepsy, and brain damage consider themselves physically disabled: “Yes!!! All neurodivergent people are physically disabeld!!! The brain is part of the body!!! I don’t have able-bodied privilege!!! Saying I do is like saying I am not disabled!!!”

The Audacity Of Dance

See that girl whose body defies the norms, with body, twisted (spastic) hands and arms, and whose legs do not conform? Dancing?!

Dancing! Yes dancing, motherfuckers Responding, connecting to the emotive notes and rhythms of the song Because music is life and despite a society who is wrong who thinks she’d be better off dead (if she can’t be “cured”) She is not. dead. yet.

And so when I choose to dance, freely, and when moved by music, that this in itself is an act of protest It is a middle finger and raised fist to all who see me and laugh to the daily looks of pity and disdain the relentless gawking as if I was on display (for them) ha! The ableism that is rarely called by its name

After all, someone who looks like me shouldn’t be dancing, right? (The audacity of dancing) Go back to being a hermit and silent waiting for death which surely is my only chance for happiness and all their other projections

Well, fuck off, abled boy (the audacity of ignorance) I do not dance for your approval I do not dance, for you.

When I say "it's bearable for me" about a certain task, it doesn't mean I can do it without pain. It could still be the case that I have to take a break or lay down. Many able bodied people don't seem to understand this experience, asking "but you said it was bearable?"

Chronic pain doesn't always disappear. For me, it's always there, even if I do something that should be physically able for me to do. I think it really shows how little chronic pains are understood by outsiders.

Question: when people use the term “abled people”, is that short for “able-bodied people” or just a term for non-disabled (neurotypical and ablebodied) people in general?

It genuinely bothers me that people on here want to use abled to mean not having a physical disability and not having no disability at all. What's the term for neurotypical able bodied people then? What are we going to use to identify the people with absolute privilege?

That's not even what mainly bothers me, what mainly bothers me is that being neurodivergent involves physical differences a lot of the fucking time. Depression and anxiety, two incredibly common disabilities, both can give you fatigue. They've also been shown to weaken the immune system. And what about the disabilities that we don't have a clear label for? Is my ibs physical because it has physical symptoms? Or is it mental because it's strongly related to my anxiety? Sleep disorders are usually taken care of in the field of psychology, but sleep apnea happens from physical structures most of the time.

All because the brain is a part of the physical body! You can't separate the two!

So stop acting like we can!
