i think tumblr isn’t ready for this take yet but, while solidarity between the mentally ill/neurodivergent and physically disabled communities is important, we face very different kinds of ableism and you really need to stop hijacking posts about issues or positivity related to disability and making it about mental health
Health is not a virtue and illness is not a character flaw or a moral failing. People who are healthy aren't healthy because they did everything right. People who are sick aren't sick because they did something wrong. Illness, both mental and physical, can hit literally anyone at any time. Good people aren't exempt from suffering, so let's kill the idea that if someone's sick, it must be because they're doing something wrong. That's not how it works. The world isn't fair like that.
I started making absurd art with pics of my foster kittens, and a friend encouraged me to make a shop for it. Thus, cybervintage.redbubble.com was born. There’s no way I could make a profit with what I’ve put into fostering, but I already sold a sticker, and it’s a thrill just to know someone wanted something I created! Does that make me an official artist? lol
“People’s lives are not commodities…. You cannot ask the question ‘How much will you pay to live?’ Because the answer is everything. The answer is you will pay $10. You will pay $1000. You will go into debt. You will do anything to live.” - Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
I was listening to Crazy by Britney Spears in the car today, and I came to a stop sign at the exact moment she yells STOP! It was probably one of the most satisfying moments of my life.
