HELP ME AFFORD A #MOBILITYAID

I'm #disabled, unemployed and need a rollator, trying to raise money to get one.

Family is very unsupportive and the little money I still have goes for medications, which are very expensive.

Donate or commission!

I wonder if some older folks got so flabbergasted that growing old impacted their bodies so much that when they see a young person they can't even phantom they could be disabled

if he'll be back tomorrow
a penguin waddles in and then the axolotl's gone

autism is unstoppable

I just got done replicating a phone case that appears twice very briefly in my favorite series

I'm disabled.
My disabilities greatly affect my ability to work.
Most disabled people are unemployed or underemployed.
My medication to manage those disabilities, is very expensive.
I have many bills other than my medication, living is very expensive.

today's unsurprising and old lesson: don't overestimate your body or underestimate PEM + pain

it'll go *horribly bad* and you'll only award debilitated days

if anyone tells me I'm being too influenced by my special interest in heartbreak high, I'll deny it while holding my handcrafted replica of a characters phone case

how to be bubbly and colorful when you've only been dark and basic your whole life

I want to go out with stars stuck to my face but I'm too much of a coward for that

feelings feel like an amorphous big blob of mixed content, how on earth does one turn this into speech????

I believe being autistic makes communication so hard because words and meanings always seem scrambled in my brain, it's frustrating and confusing

I really despise chronic fatigue and feel like people don't really understand it

"but you haven't done anything to be tired"

I KNOW, that's the very problem, I WISH I could do something

when a disabled person says "this hurts and fatigues me", it's quite weird to get upset that you set your expectations they were gonna be able to enthusiastically (maybe just a little less than an non-disabled person would) do it and continuously didn't manage to (yes, even if they really wanted to)

exhausted and can't sleep
this is hell

I'm usually very ashamed of asking for delivery services because I'm not visibly disabled, so I'm just perceived as a "lazy young person"

love and hate relationship with my favorite doctor because I love him and it's always good seeing him but I can only schedule an appointment every two months or so and it's always obscenely early (untrue, I just hate waking up before 10am)

the vulnerability that comes with #disability is really soul crushing to me
January 22, 2025 at 6:14 PM
it's honestly exhaustive to see new doctors and explain your whole terrible health

sometimes I feel like just writing a paper and giving it to them instead of explaining every time

Please look at this baby capybara whose name is Tupi.

everyone is *so* supportive until the flight of stairs in their house becomes a problem to me, which means I become an inconvenience

then I'm suddenly being too dramatic, too lazy, uncooperative

funny how supporting accessibility is about "feeling like it" for some (usually non-disabled people)
