When we focus on someone’s disability, we often overlook their abilities, beauty, and uniqueness. Once we learn to accept and love them for who they are, we subconsciously learn to love ourselves unconditionally. 💙
On International Day of Disabled Persons, we aim to promote the rights and well-being of persons with disabilities in all spheres of society and development. 💙
QOTD: what are you doing for summer reading? Now that the semesters over and I have easy access to a bookstore (this was picked up from @hummingbirdbookstore in chestnut hill!) and need a distraction from the terrible news that’s come from the Supreme Court this past week I’ve been catching up on some much needed reading. Currently I’m reading Deaf Utopia, a memoir by Nyle DiMarco on growing up Deaf and being immersed in the Deaf community. As a Deaf/HoH person myself it’s been really nice to be able to read and see positive Deaf representation in a world that often marginalizes the Deaf Community and discounts our language. #deaf #deafcommunity #deafculture #deafworld #deafawareness #deaftalent #deafpride #deafness #deafpeople #deafeducation #bookstagram #booktok #bookrecommendations #bookreview #booklover #booknerd #bookstagrammer #bookshelf #bookphotography #books #hummingbirdbooks #localbookstore #localbookshop #disabilityawareness #disabilityrights #disabilitypride #disabilityadvocate #studygram #studyblr #disabledandproud (at Boston, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/CfXpW-5uz9v/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
there are gonna be MAJOR differences in my au called…
DEAFTALE!!!(i couldn’t think of a better one but i do accept suggestions as long as it has the word “Deaf” in it)
what kind of differences, you may ask?
well, for starters, Sans is very energetic, unlike the orginal sans hahah- Sans also has higher HP-
Papyrus, he doesn’t really care about joining the royal guard, so yes. He and Frisk will never fight unless its in the genocide route. He and Frisk never went on a “date” since Papyrus doesn’t really let people in his room- that and Papyrus is aroace ahshdngndjek-
Napsblook does have a body thanks to Alphys and Mettaton! Napsblook mainly helps Alphys in the lab though b/c he’s kinda sensitive to sounds and noises, so RIP Mettaton’s show- he doesn’t mind watching the show on the TV though since the lights and sounds aren’t as severe as the real life show- <3
ok i almost wrote the whole info so i might aswell work on it now
