Long Overdue Ableism Post

Long Overdue Ableism Post

I am sick and tired of certain right wing Christians whining about the ADA (you know the law that ensures that disabled people get an equal shake in life). Without the ADA, myself and many of my classmates wouldn’t have been able to attend school unless our parents could afford the fees for one of the few private schools for disabled people. Many of us would be unable to move in public since ramps wouldn’t be installed, and the visually impaired couldn’t utilize guide dogs. 

In the past, many of us were forcibly institutionalized and sterilized since we were viewed as worthless. Those who weren’t institutionalized were written off by teachers as lost causes, our issues largely undiagnosed. The fact that many of us were murdered in Nazi Germany was ignored until recently. It took mass demonstrations before the ADA was passed in 1990. 

For a group that claims to support “Christian charity” y’all sure aren’t practicing what you’re preaching.

Just wanted to post that asexuals in general are awesome, valid, and LGBT+. There is nothing wrong with having no interest in sex. You’re just different, and it’s ok to be different.

The Romans When They're Drunk

Caesar: He doesn't get drunk, and no one encourages him to. They don't know what he's like drunk, and they don't want to know

Antony: Is a really happy drunk. Cuddles with everyone and impulsively buys all kinds of nonsense. When he wakes up in the morning he's surrounded by his drunk purchases but has no idea who drained his bank account.

Brutus: Sobs hysterically, an absolute wreck. Tells you his whole life story and you'll find him throwing up in the bathroom later, Cassius holding his hair back while he has to listen to him cry about his past for the millionth time.

Octavian: Starts giving speeches to everyone while standing on the table. He thinks they're motivational, but they're complete gibberish.

Cassius: A bold, angry drunk. Will fight anyone and can make literally anything into a weapon.

Pompey: Calls everybody beautiful and suddenly is under the impression that he can sing and dance.

Percy, holding the door for Mary: After you :)

Mary: No, after you :)

Percy: I insist, after you :)

Byron, pushing pass the both of them: No, after me.

This is both hilarious and accurate for Lord Byron, who really was that arrogant.

Seriously, it is not lesbophobic to rightfully object to your identity being erased. Would it have been that hard for the person taking the pictures to call it a queer wedding, a bisexual wedding, a wlw wedding, or even a same gender wedding? 

"Lesbian Can Be Used As An Adjective For Wlw Duh." But Also "Don't You Dare Use Lesbian If You're Bi/pan!"

"Lesbian can be used as an adjective for wlw duh." But also "Don't you dare use lesbian if you're bi/pan!"

Heaven Forbid the bisexual brides feel their sexuality is invalidated by being known as "sword lesbians" online when they are both bisexual. Can y'all just say you hate m-spec women and go to hell?
