Pacing and finding energy, brainpower & time for all the things that I need or want doing are so hard. Good luck to us all!

I now get requests to review articles submitted to international journals and if I can be honest, the worst kinds are those submitted by "inclusive/special education" folks. I'm reviewing another paper today. Sadly, I will have to reject this one again. So many layers of coloniality and ableism! 🤢😖

My adulthood is becoming more of an inescapable cycle of deciding what I will not do out of all the things I do want to do. The more useful stuff I manage to do, the longer the wishlist becomes! Heartbreaking but such is life. Sorry, friends. 😔

The threshold seems higher and harder to reach now before something can hurt or infuriate me to the point of tears. These things happened so many times before that I think way way way more is required now to cross that threshold one more time? 🤷🏻‍♀️

It's interesting how all the people who complain about how disabilities or illnesses have become identities seem fine with people identifying as well, healthy, or normal. I think if anything there is a much larger identity politics of this latter sort.
