In the ’80s, she recalls, queer Canadians banded together to fight sexual censorship — including Vancouver’s own Little Sister’s Book & Art Emporium, which fought physical and legal battles. The historic bookstore faced its first bombing in 1978 and constantly had their imports affected through “systemic targeting” by Canadian customs.
“Canada customs blocked anything they perceived as porn, which is what they called all LGBT2SQ+ [content],” Dykeman says.
Hey look at that! DOES this bullshit sound FAMILIAR?
it's not a new problem. It's been repackaged- and fed to the puriteens for re-distribution..

the way that no one wears a mask at my local LGBTQ clinic, and in fact comments on my mask like it's just this hilarious little idiosyncrasy that I still wear one and not because I'm immunocompromised and we're in the middle of a pandemic ... as if there isn't an airborne virus that literally fucks up your immune system ... as if we didn't lose a generation of queer people to another virus that fucks up your immune system ...

i wanna say fuck you to anyone who shame disabled, chronically ill & neurodivergent people, especially homebound folks, for "spending too much time on their phone/on the internet/etc." when it's the only (Somewhat) accessible way for them to experience the world. many people don't get to get out much even if they want to because of their disabilities. shaming someone for trying to connect with the world, make friends and engage with hobbies in ways that are accessible to them is beyond cruel and unnecessary

Nothing About Me Is Straight
I'm making stickers based on my chronic illnesses for my final project in my art class. This is the first one! If people like them I'm thinking about adding them to my shop in the summer when I have more time.
Funny enough I killed my wrist and fingers trying to draw this. ouchie i need to buy some splints soon

something i don't see talked about much is how people treating disabled people like we are abled can actually be harmful.
i was leaving work and had my cane, i was very tired and in pain. people outside of my store advertising for the world wildlife fund tried to stop me to talk about the environment until they saw i worked there, which is nice, but you probably shouldn’t stop anyone with a mobility aid who is walking. please don’t guilt us into taking extra time to stand in a hot sun, we actually need to go sit down, or it takes us longer to get somewhere so we really don’t have the time to.
don’t infantilize me, but also acknowledge i need extra help or rest. why is that so hard?

We need to talk about how so many queer spaces are inaccessible and even actively hostile to physically disabled people.

it's not intersexist to acknowledge that intersexness can result from a health condition or be related to one. intersex is an umbrella term for a variety of experiences, including ones involving disability, and it's okay and important to admit that. we don't gain anything by throwing intersex people who experience complications from their variation/related condition under the bus.
but even beyond that, we don't have to separate ourselves from disability in order to prove we deserve human rights. our variations being linked to chronic illness wouldn't mean that all the medical abuse towards us is founded. disabled and intersex people all have a right to bodily autonomy and proper healthcare that needs to be upheld.
even if our sex nonconformity were somehow universally an illness, intersex and disabled people have a right to exist. just as much as abled and dyadic people do. there is no "proving" that we have human rights - that is something we all inherently have.

getting disabled over a period of time is so weird, because sometimes i’ll just see something, let’s say about running, and think “i should do that!” and then i slowly realise that i can’t run anymore. i can barely even walk. it’s weird because there wasn’t one event that happened that made me like it. there wasn’t a day where i woke up and couldn’t run anymore. it was slow and gradual. and sometimes i realise how much ive lost that i didn’t even realise because it all happened so gradually. sometimes it feels like yesterday i could run and today i can’t, and sometimes it feels like forever ago that i could.

conversations about ability, disability, and pain (especially chronic pain) need to become less socially “taboo” because there’s so many people who don’t realize how much pain they’re actually in. n they don’t realize because they just assume everyone has these problems, bc no one talks about it.
i think it’s important to be open about what amount, level, etc. of pain is considered “normal” bc a lot of people don’t realize until it’s too late
