I was watching a Molly Burke video where she was talking about things in her kitchen that make it more accessible to her. One of the things that she mentioned was how everything in her kitchen is rounded off, and all knobs and other hardware have been removed from the cabinets so that she doesn't hurt herself when she bumps into them. Soooooo many of the comments on that video were like "you don't have to be blind to bump into things! I do it all the time!" And I just don't understand why people feel the need to post things like this??? Are you trying to make her feel more normal? Are you trying to shame her for having accommodations that you don't need? Whatever their motive, it just gives off the same feeling as when someone tells a person with chronic fatigue "we're ALL tired!" and it just makes me want to scream.

For some reason I find it hilarious to think of someone meeting actual YouTuber Melanie King, seeing her cane, and going, “oh my god have you heard of Molly Burke?!”
But it’s only funny in the context of knowing how often people say that to blind folks in real life.

I just have to say, I’m not new to the internet.
But…the internet continues to disappoint me. There I am, I find wholesome content or whatever.
But people on the internet keep trying to ruin everything.
I’ve been watching Squirmy and Grubs videos for a while and I’ve been learning more about Shane and his writing career, his condition. Also his wife Hannah, etc…
Tumblr media
….I go to look up more information about them and I see so many videos/reddit posts/Quora posts pop up, claiming that Hannah and Shane have to be faking their relationship.
Tumblr media
That Hannah simply can’t be attracted to him, that she’s got other guys on the roster or whatever and/or she’s just in it for the money. Or she’s disgusting because she has a weird fetish. Or just how “something is off”.
Tumblr media
My brothers in Christ…
Why is it so hard to imagine that an interabled relationship is real? They literally happen all the time everyday every where.
What has Hannah ever done to make you think she’s just in it for the $$$ and isn’t attracted to Shane? Oh I know, she committed the crime of being beautiful.
If you’ve ever watched Shane, he’s a really funny and interesting dude who has written books and accomplished quite a lot. But he committed the crime of being disabled I guess.
Please stop 🛑 collaborate 🤔 and listen 👂 to people who are disabled and in interabled relationships. People like Shane and Hannah are putting out information for you for free, trying to educate you and honestly they do it in an entertaining way. They don’t have to.
Tumblr media
Honestly the main point here is to stop assuming what disabled people want or need and try to listen to those who choose to talk about it.
If you are skeptical or uncomfortable with some of this, I suggest making yourself familiar with spokespeople like Squirmy and Grubs, and checking out the resources they put out into the public.
I also suggest watching Molly Burke’s channel, a Blind woman who has been traveling the world spreading her message about the Blind community.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I’ve learned so much from her. I learned that I assumed a lot that I shouldn’t have assumed. And that’s the point of resources like these. You don’t know what you don’t know.
There’s a lot off innocent assumptions people make but the thing I’ve noticed about certain people that talk about their disabilities…they generally have a good amount of patience and kindness to people who don’t understand yet.
If you feel bad for what you said or did, try to do better and move on, don’t beat yourself up or anything. Just do better.
I just feel like, if you’re going to take the time to go on Reddit or Quora or Youtube and debunk people’s relationships, whom you don’t know and spread assumptions…take that time instead to put away your phone and go touch some grass.
But…before you put the phone away…
great video to start with:

#not having a great time today after my mom commented on my interests#i'm a person that is interested in shit i don't know this is why i'm very likely to follow disabled youtubers#in my time i have watched molly burke. multiplicityandme and a collection of autistic youtubers (guess why lol)#and my mom made a quite patronizing comment about how i ''take on causes'' by learning about stuff#and/or supporting fun and interesting youtube channels#but anyways it sucks even more because on her comment she made it clear (once again) that she doesn't believe me when i say#i might be autistic. and it fucking sucks!#because when i first talked to her about it even I didn't know much about it. i was just starting to do my research#and i was trying to make sense of things still but she dismissed it#but now that i do know more and things do make more sense#i can't even bring it up because the fact that i have been watching a lot of youtubers talk about autism will make her think#i'm just trying to be like them... which is stupid#but it's also the reason i didn't tell her that my best friend in my teens was trans. because i was trying to figure shit out myself#and telling her he was trans and then a bit later that i am as well was going to make her go ''everyone's trans now blah blah''#and dismiss that as well... but now i'm trapped in the same thing about autism lol#and her stupid loophole of a dismissal isn't just by saying ''no you're not autistic'' it's saying this like ''well MAAAAYBE you COULD be#but that doesn't mean anything and it doesn't matter and why would you want a diagnosis if it's not gonna change anything''#same thing as her whole ''sure you're a man but why do you have to look and act differently? YOU know who YOU are#who cares what others think?'' in a don't transition way#like that's so stupid!#dkfjhkdfhkdfg#i'm angry and i feel trapped#i have figured out a little bit ago that i don't stim near as enough as i need to BECAUSE i live in the same house as her#and the idea of ear defenders and other stuff like that is very appealing but i can't do that while she's around to judge#and IN PUBLIC?! that's unthinkable!!#i still remember the time she threatened with not going out with me (to the supermarket) because I commited the huge crime of#buttoning the top button of my button up shirt....#that's it. that was the whole reason.. she thought i looked ridiculous and she didn't want to be seen with me...#imagine if i wear ear defenders out...#not gonna risk it lol

I don’t mind when I see that a disabled person has money, either from generational/parents wealth or because they earned it somehow.
We all are too aware how many of us live in poverty or are close to it.
So it’s awesome that a disabled person has the possibility to enjoy their money, like buying an accessible house and all the aids and tools they need and also some fancy treats.
What I don’t appreciate though is when they don’t acknowledge the privilege that comes from it and the fact that they are just a tiny number in an otherwise very poor community. They could do so much to help. Not that they are obligated but it would be nice. At least say it.
I mean, money shouldn’t be a privilege of the few, but in the world we live in that unfortunately is. If we continue to perpetrate this rotten system nothing’s gonna get better.
(Also, if you use that money to support a genocide there’s not much we can agree on).

Meanwhile, Megan and Tess were out on a date at The Caboose bar. Megan wore a more bold outfit* and looked so good and Tess was like ‘Wow, okay, Meggs and toast,’ and fanned herself. Megan smiled and was like ‘I know right? I bought the pants and blazer for work originally but they look so good paired with this bralette.’ Tess grinned and added that it looked more than just good and Megan laughed as she led them to the bar and brought drinks.
