[ID: Four posters by @LizWhatsHerFace on Instagram. 1. A muscular man wearing a black respirator, a black tank top and black shorts. “Are you man enough to wear the Ellipse P100 Niosh respirator or should I call Kyle?” 2. A thin woman wearing a black N95 facemask, pink lace bralette, white fur vest, pink and white striped pants and sunglasses “Sorry I made it weird when I said my life is worth more than eating indoors at Applebees.” 3. A stacked woman wearing a white N95 facemask and a low cut white tank top “I bring a sort of wear a fuckin mask vibe to the party” 4. A photonegative woman wearing a black N95 facemask and black tshirt “Radical Covid zero extremists want your dick to keep working.” Comment by Liz at the bottom “trying some new approaches 🌈🍔”]

Whoever is blasting music outside at two in the fucking morning please I am begging you to stop. I know my sleep schedule is fucked but what the fuck. I genuinely can’t tell if this is a neighbor with their speakers up too loud or some sort of festival or concert several miles away. I don’t care as long as they stop.

being disabled is so fun because sometimes you can just be going about your day like normal and with zero warning your body will be like you have to lay down Right Now or you will pass out

There'll be a post like, "ableism is bad" and all the comments will be "yeah! Ableists are all sociopaths and narcissists!" "Ableists all live in their moms basements and don't contribute anything to society!"

something important to remember is that there's always time. if you lost many years to abuse or mental illness, you will get a chance to live life on your terms. there is no limit on the age you have to be to achieve goals. you can go back to school at 30, or switch careers at 40. you can start new hobbies at any age. there is no cut off age for being happy and content. if you're trapped right now, you will get the opportunity to become who you want to be.

ok so you support the disabled, disordered, and mentally ill. but are you normal when someone takes long to respond to you? or if they have a hard time listening to you? when someone has a hard time giving you their attention? or when their manners aren’t perfect? or when someone makes mistakes that may be obvious or simple to you? or when someone talks loudly or “causes a scene?” are you normal when people have to think really hard to explain things? or when they have a hard time putting their thoughts into words?

are you normal when people’s hair is unkempt or oily or visibly unbrushed? or when their face might be full of acne? or when they don’t have deodorant on for one reason or another? how about if their clothes are dirty? 

are you normal about disabled/disordered/mentally ill people when they make you a little uncomfortable?

do you guys ever get annoyed that like. we have bodily needs.

like, sure, I don't mind eating a lil snack or drinking something tasty, BUT it annoys me that I have to do that in order to live.

like, I can't have little treats all the time, no, I have to eat regular meals, because otherwise the body will get upset. and most of the times, the body will also get upset if you eat something in particular, because it's dramatic like that

I like sweet fizzy drinks, but I gotta drink way more than I would like to in order to stay hydrated. and best way to do so is to drink water & that does NOT spark joy, the flavor usually is off, boring and annoying. not to mention if you drink enough, you gotta go to the bathroom so often, such an annoyance

like. do you guys get me.
