A thirty-something aspiring YA author. This blog mostly contains pretty, fandom-related pictures and short life anecdotes. I occasionally write long posts critiquing media, or commenting on treatment of disability. Main ransoms atm: ASOIAF (the books), Wynonna Earp, In the Flesh, BTVS (fuffy!), and The Fosters. Bi, she/her. DFTBA!

Uncomfortably Numb [52/?]||FFN
Rating: NC-17/Explicit
Pairings: Meredith Grey/Derek Shepherd, Lexie Grey/Mark Sloan
Meredith isn't the only Grey to make it home alive after the plane crash. How does Lexie's survival affect everyone else's recovery? With Mark gone and returning to the O.R. as a surgeon an unlikelihood in her uncertain future, can Lexie really say she's survived? ]

New logo! I made this up of all the images I could find of visible disability in tarot.
Hi! I'm Chelsey. I give in-depth, insightful readings. I'm a queer, disabled woman, and I make a point of being inclusive. Querents can choose their deck from my collection I'll read on most things, with the caveat that I'm not a lawyer, or a doctor (in spite of my Grey's Anatomy obsession). I don't read on dreams/ancestors/guides/angels--they don't hang out with me.
And, know what? I'll be honest. I live in a three-person household on fixed incomes that could get yanked away by a DOGE at any point. I love reading tarot, and every $5 helps, y'know?
I have degrees in English and Children's Literature, and give specialized readings using book-related decks.
Follow me on the socials for thoughts about tarot and disability, sometimes in the same post. bluesky chelseyblair meta chelseyblair89

The books were out for decades before the show, and let's face it, the Insight Editions version is kind of crap, so I have ro ask:
Why is there not a fan-made Song of Ice and Fire Tarot???

Querents have said:  
"that was one of the best readings I've got!! i found their reading really good and insightful, very kind and straight forward reader, i also think very accurate!! i most certainly recommend, they also gave good advice very grateful for it!!😄☀️"
“The message was very positive and encouraging, but in a way that made sense of the exact situation, opposed to an open ended or easily applicable sugar coated message.”  
"Extremely intuitive, kind, and open. Cards were extremely reflective of my situation and I hardly told her anything. So comforting and I could feel the love from her cards <3 Definitely take the time to book a reading if you are looking for someone to truly understand you!!!"
"Chelsey read for me a while back. It was a clearly structured reading, with a strong explanation of each card, overall synthesis and guidance and explanation of how it all fitted together. It provided food for thought as well as reassurance and I liked the style of the reading. Thank you!"
“Super crazy… the reading left me speechless. “  
“ I love her approach, reading was given with a lot of grace but honest enough without sugarcoating.”  
"I recently had a wonderful reading from [Chelsey]. It was lengthly, informative, and there was the flow from the past, present, and future with advice and observation for moving forward. [Chelsey] was able to grasp very accurate truths about my situation making everything resonate well and really address everything. They connected the cards together so the reading was one big picture, instead of individual messages stuck together. The message was very positive and encouraging, but in a way that made sense of the exact situation, opposed to an open ended or easily applicable sugar coated message. Visual aspects were also used to explain things which added an extra sensory component."

Rachel Maddow looks at a string of peculiar behaviors by Donald Trump, and his administration's policies, and wonders — since those policies are bad for the U.S., who are they good for? The obvious answer: Putin The obvious conclusion: Trump is a traitor.

I wrote a book on the protest and haven’t gotten it to agents yet because of the zeitgeist, but it’s always heavy on me
I keep thinking about all of the disabled activists and people before me who stranded themselves on the 4th floor of buildings for weeks and crawled up stairs and fought with airline staff and schools and doctors and refused to stop existing in the face of injustice and bigotry no matter how big and scary and hopeless it seemed. Every time I get angry and scared the protests that lead to the creation of the ADA pop up again and remind me that disabled people are so much fucking stronger than anyone has ever given us credit for, and I can't help but be proud of that. And I know not all disabled people feel like we should take pride in our disabilities and have flags or whatever, but I think not just living, but thriving, in spite of a world that wants us dead and gone, in the face of both illness and persecution, and how we've not only bought ourselves forward, but uplifted the disabled people around us, secured more equal futures for everyone who will come after, and truly changed the way so many abled people have seen us for the better is something to be damn fucking proud of.
We have always been here and we always will be, there will never be a world without disabled people because being disabled is not bad, it's a natural part of the human experience and yeah it sucks some times but even when it sucks we have fought to build beautiful, unique, happy lives with people, both like us and not, and that should be celebrated.
The first sign of human civilization is the healed femur. The body of the profoundly disabled person who would have needed help to even just eat being carefully laid to rest after decades of a full, happy life. The medicinal plants showing even before we were entirely human we were doing what we could to not just survive, but alleviate suffering while we're at it. Above everything, evolution selected not the baby who can walk and eat and be quiet, but the one that can ask for help.
Disabled people are not just angry cockroach motherfuckers who refuse to die, we are proof of humanity's HUMANITY. Proof that natural selection selected a species that takes care of each other. From healed femurs and medicinal plants to vaccines and IVs and insulin to now, we are driven to help one another, we are at our strongest when we don't leave our most vulnerable behind. And I am living proof of that. My mother is living proof of that. Every disabled and chronically and/or mentally ill person I know is living proof of that.
And I don't know about the rest of you, but will carry that shred of humanity's true nature inside me like it's my fucking soul. I am scared and angry and hurt, but I have a lifetime's experience being scared and angry, and I can shake off the kind of pain that would make Atlas crumble to dust like it's nothing but a stiff fucking breeze. Disabled people have always been here, turning fear and anger and pain into joy and beauty and connection, and I'm not going to let everyone who came before me down. I'm not going to give up. Not now, not ever.
It's okay if you're disabled and you've hit your limit, you're too scared and tired and hurt, I won't blame you. But I won't abandon you, either. I might not be able to right all of the wrongs in the world, but I'll be strong, I'll carry all of you with me, I will not give up.
As I've said before, society hates a cripple who won't die, so we must spite them and live anyway.
Please, live anyway. I know if anyone can, it's us.

I see. I guess the tins ship from China but not the decks. But the shipping is still a bit nuts. I just checked and for the one deck it’s a third of the cost again.
Tarot zine and tarot/oracle deck creators! If you’re based in the US and are looking for US deck printers in the coming months, I’ve spoken to several about pricing, looked at samples of cardstocks, box, and finishes, and toured the production facility of a major printer nearby. Primarily, I spoke to printers that do low order quantities (15-100+). So if you’re looking for prospective printers state-side and want to talk over options, I’d be happy to discuss.

I'm putting together a list of fandom tarot decks--decks based on TV shows, books, movies, music, etc--I'm especially interested in fan-made decks. Those can be hard to find unless you specifically search for tarot + "whatever your fandom is," and even then they might not show up.
If you know of one that I haven't listed LMK hreand I'll add it

Do you know of anyone who does single decks? I have one that I plan to do with MPC, and I plan to order it with another deck I like, butshipping is already obscene, and I can't do it for a few weeks. If tarifs spike the prices, I'd like to have an alternative and the only one I know of only has one type of (very thin) cardstock
