Tremors: a zine about being an artist with chronic shaky hands!

hello !! I’m atomic, and we’re an artist with a mild hand/limb tremor, so what better thing to do then make a zine about it 👀

honestly i firmly believe that the story of harry potter is missing something crucial if he is not disabled in some way shape or form

source 1: i am disabled

source 2: i am always right

what would his disability be?

either partial deafness or partial blindness (from the failed curse when he was a baby), or chronic pain (as played out in my fanfiction)(it makes so much sense, think: the body keeps score)

i’m open to other options

disagree with me? that’s totally okay.

i’ll just hit you with my cane.

i woke up so fucking sad. you know the sadness that feels like it is consuming your whole being? after feeding the kitties breaky, i then sat down to read news & saw a notification that my bank account is in the fucking negative. i am so sick of just surviving day-to-day. i have prescriptions to get for me & more importantly, for boba fett my calico angel. then more meds later this week because i have to be sedated for two procedures. i am so exhausted. i keep starting to cry & feel pain deep in my chest. i am going to take my morning meds & hide under my sheets until i feel like i can human a bit better.

if you are a sweet biscuit who enjoys my sexy posts & are comfortable helping, i would be incredibly grateful. i am going to need help this week & am already beating myself up about it. absolutely no pressure, money is tight for many of us. i appreciate your genuine care either way, seriously 🖤🤍

Hi everybody!

I hope You're having a low-symptom day, and that You are in a safe place.

What's my day like today? Well. My car needed a signal light changed. Not a big deal, right?

Well, when I looked up how to do it myself, I saw that it wasn't something I could do on my own. So we brought her to a shop and found out that, in fact, for some reason, they need to take the entire front grate off in order to access the bulb which a consumer should be able to change ourselves.

So, $350 to change a $5 part. Who designed this car.

If You're able and You enjoy what we do here, we'd appreciate a few bucks to help. Not a worry if not, I do appreciate nice words and fun tales as well!

Am I sensitive or am I just setting boundaries on what you know about my health and you're not used to being told no?

[daisies-n-sunflowers]

I am very frustrated!

I need to have a small rant... yes while I have skills as a designer and digital artist, I am permanently disabled and I am not able to work every day. My content creation makes nothing right now since I am only starting off. Why do people assume that content creators make a big amount of money? Like... I make nothing yet then try to sell stuff to me. Eww, yucky go away solicitors! 🤢

I would fucking kill myself if I was an able bodied healthy person playing devil's advocate or "um actually, disabled people have it EASIER than everyone else" in the comments of videos made my disabled/chronically ill creators...

[sirpuntine]

SOOOOOOO MANY FUCKING PEOPLE assume that the ~5% of my health and background that I share online are 100% of my existing health and background.

I’ll be like “I use AAC because anxiety makes speech more difficult”, and they hear “anxiety disorders make people nonverbal”. Or I say “using an aac board makes me feel safe”, and they hear “the only reason I use AAC is for a vague sense of safety”. Or I say “I use my wheelchair on days when walking is more difficult”, and they assume that our definitions of “more difficult” are the same, when in reality, the pain and fatigue I experience 24 fucking 7 is so severe that it permanently altered my psyche and it’s ability to effectively compare the severity of my experiences to others; put simply, what an able-bodied person may call a 5 is more like a 1 for me, or what I may call a 5 is more like a 10 for them.

And the same people that make those insensible assumptions will go to the videos where I actually do explain more of my health or background, then comment that my openness online is an obvious indicator of dishonesty because they would never make such posts, as if their shame regarding healthcare and disability is universal or desirable.

These are also generally the same folks that say shit like “pick a struggle”, when they can’t commit to a single argument. Do you want me to share my experiences more, or less? Do you want me to post documentation of testing and diagnoses, or would you fill my comments with “who cares” and “here’s why that’s fake”? Do you even know why you’re mad, or did you just see someone that fits your description of “The Enemy” and you’d rather I run back to whatever hole formerly protected your blissful ignorance from the poison of my visible disability and roaring faggotry? Do you genuinely care about the hypothetical tax dollars that aren’t being used to fund my continued life support (because insurance never approves my claims), or are you just afraid that if you sit alone long enough in the silence of your echo rooms you’ll start to realize the “enemy from within” threatening your way of life is your very own circus leader?

Like cmon guys. Pick a struggle.
