I know for a fact that this has been posted elsewhere on Tumblr, but I wanted to share this:
This is a document ful of resources about things you can do politically that are not voting or going to protests. As a disabled person who struggles at protests, this is incredibly valuable. It has tons of resources about mutual aid, political education, migrant justice, disability justice, and much much more.

I have an annoyingly unexplained joint thingy that truly does not like my knees. I also have 17 different classes of 5-10 year olds. You can imagine that it didn’t take long I was pretty tired of “my knee doesn’t want to work right today, no I’m not sure why, but using the cane will help me be comfortable and help it rest so it can heal faster”. So when the fourth-grade class came in on day two and someone asked, I said “do you want the boring true answer or the interesting lie?”
“Can we hear both?”
“Sure. The problem is that there are invisible moles that live under the music room, and they’re attracted to the sound of the xylophones. If they ever manage to dig their way up through the floor, they’ll eat all the heads off the mallets- everyone knows invisible moles LOVE mallets- but they hate the sound of a cane thumping, right? So if when it’s super quiet in here I can feel the vibrations and sneak over and-“ *smacks the foot of my cane into the floor repeatedly* “-scare them away.”
“…really??”
“No. I strained my knee somehow and I’m using the cane so it has a chance to heal.”
“Awwwww….”
They really liked the moles, though, and spread the story around. So now, even a year or two later, if I have a flare and am walking around work with my cane, some kid will point and gasp in perfectly-executed alarm, “The moles are back! Oh NO!” to the merriment of all (except any new students, who just look Extremely Confused until someone explains).
Kids are awesome.
I usually default to the Herobrine one but occasionally I claim that my sister was a bear and we used to fight a lot.

The reason fat cadavers are not accepted for medical programmes is that you need to cut through every layer of fat carefully. Which takes time, and lab sessions are inherentely limited in that. It's better for med students to spend that time looking at what organs actually look like in bodies. This isn't fatphobia, it's just .. the way dissecting bodies works? In the same way surgeries on fat people take longer because there's just physically more tissue. The alternative would be to force the med students who get fatter cadavers to do more lab sessions at weird times outside of the usual schedules. Or force them to stay over the holidays. Or not let them get enough time to do the lab work they need to. Which imo would be a bit fucked up especially when med school is already so difficult and time-consuming.
It’s fatphobia. Fat bodies absolutely need to be studied. To ignore an entire demographic of oppressed individuals in the medical field for the sake of convenience(?!) is violence. Did you even read the article? They called working on fat cadavers “unpleasant.” It��s fatphobia and it’s unacceptable.
